Here is all of this week's news information and catch reports from Luton Angling Club. Thursday this week saw the start of the River fishing season. All our bailiffs have been hard at work at all our river venues making sure that everything was in tip top condition for the first day of the season and you'll see from the pictures they look amazing. The hot weather on Thursday and Friday made the river fishing slightly more of a challenge although a few catches were reported.

Grand Union Canal
Amer Jawad was out doing a feature with Match Fishing magazine on our stretch of the Grand Union canal near Leighton Buzzard this week. He said it was nice to get the pole out again after a bit of feeder fishing over the past few months. He had 30lb plus of Bream/Skimmers and they were not caught in the usual spot in the swim! The article will feature in the July issue of Match Fishing magazine.

After a quiet Friday nighter on North House. Rod and Grandson Charlie decided to switch tactics and use Zigs at 6am after seeing carp showing on the surface. A couple of hours later their luck was in with Rod landing this Common, a little battered from spawning but none the less a welcome end to the session.

It was my first fishing session of 2022 on Thursday and I spent the first day of the River season on the Ouse at Wyboston. It was good fun sitting in the sunshine catching Perch one after the other all were around the same size and they were all caught on red maggot.

Luton Wednesday Match Group
Report for Wednesday 15th June 2022
Wednesday saw 20 anglers meet in the paddock at Brownlow Bridge.
First of all we would like to thank Debbie for allowing us to park in the paddock and to Dudley, Andrew and John for assisting with the weigh in.
With temperatures in the heigh 20c’s and after some long walks we were all eventually pleased to reach our pegs, which needed to be cut back to make fishable.
The canal looked spot on with fish topping and carp cruising so everyone was enthusiastic for catching a few fish. With one double figure weight from Dave Abbott, fishing was harder than expected.
Boat and towpath traffic was minimal and what boats there were stayed in the boat channel.
1st - Dave Abbot -10lb 3oz. of skimmers and bits. Fishing 13m with worm caster and pinkie.
2nd - Simon Foulkes - 7lb 5oz of skimmers and bits. Fishing 13m with worm mush & small pieces of worm on the hook.
3rd - Chris Bartlett-Howard - 6lb 15 oz of skimmers and bits. Fishing bread punch down the track.
4th - Sean Leatherhead - 3lb 14oz
