Here is all the latest news and information from Luton Angling Club week ending 11th July 2021
River Ouse - Wyboston
Brian Turner managed to get a couple of hours in after the match on the Ouse at Wyboston yesterday, he dusted the quiver tip rod off and although out of practice he bagged a few and really enjoyed it he forgot just how much fun it is
David Howell had this 22lb 5oz Common from the Ouse looking at its tail it has probably had a lucky escape at some point. we did receive a facebook comment that this fish was recognised as one that was rescued after being stranded following the floods in St Neots.
John Les Parker had a good bag of Roach.
River Ouse Lavendon
Member Andrei fished the Downstream section on the River Ouse at Lavendon and caught a very nice chub. This stretch is known to hold some great specimen sized fish so well worth a try.
Beckerings Reservoir
Ian Inness had a 17lb Common taken off the top.
Wednesday Match Report 7th July Bragenham Side
Eight met to fish on a day that started with heavy overcast which later cleared and became warm and sunny. The wind was light at first but picked up towards the middle of the day making fishing a pole difficult at times.
There was a few boats in the second hour, but after this it was relatively undisturbed.
The anglers fished a number of methods, Pole, waggler and tip and all caught fish.
Dennis Hunt lost a Carp after 30 mins which took his bait at 6 Metres on No 4 Elastic, and Barry Roper lost another on the inside soon after on No3 elastic, both fish taking pinkies.
Richard Gibbs fished the tip, and after taking a Perch and some smaller fish had a quiet match until the last hour when he took 3 decent Bream on worm.
Barry Roper fished a pole but due to the increasing wind fishing long proved very difficult at times.
Dudley Frankland also fished a tip and took Bream, while Dennis Hunt managed to lose a number of decent bream.

Slapton Car Park
The club would like to thank life member Kevin Chadfield for making and fitting a super new gate on the entrance to the towpath at the Club car park at Slapton. It's much wider than the original gate and makes trolley access much easier.
That's it for this week,
Tight Lines - Dave M
