It was tough going for Paul Parkinson on a 48 hour Beckerings session last weekend and he only managed to get one common weighing in at 26lb 10oz and he said it put up a good fight all the way to the net. His son Kyle had a mirror and then a bit later caught a good sized Bream he also had a Perch while lure fishing.

Beckerings Stocking
On Wednesday 26th October 2022 30 C3 Mirror Carp were stocked in to Beckerings Reservoir As part of the Club's annual stocking program. These fish were supplied by the fantastic Priory Fishery Ltd as we've been really happy with the quality and growth of previous fish supplied by them. Each fish was weighed and each side photographed for future identification before being introduced to the reservoir these photos can be seen on our facebook page and in the Events/Work Parties section of the Photo Galleries on the club website. If you do catch any of these fish let us know as we like to monitor their progress and growth.

River Ouse - Eaton Ford and Wyboston
Due to the recent rain River fishing regular Nobby Clarke was keen to get out now the rivers have some flow and he's been out a few times this week the fishing was quite good at Eaton Ford on Tuesday and he caught well until the sun came out. In total he had 18 fish most were roach the best being about 10oz, One bream not big but around the 2lb mark. He had 1 small chub after losing a bigger one earlier on. All fish were caught on hemp and a few on Tares using stick and pin. The river had fantastic flow which is something he has not experienced in a while. All in all he had a very enjoyable and peaceful day as he was the only angler on the venue.

He was back out at Eaton Ford on Thursday and Started at first light and fished until 11am and it fished very poor with lots of weed, leaves and muck coming down , all he could catch was about 20 bits which were mainly small roach. When the rain stopped he decided to change venues not something he is fond of doing but just felt Eaton Ford wasn’t going to fish. He took a gamble on Wyboston knowing that it could of had the same problem with weed coming down. After arriving at 11.45 he was pleased to see no weed islands to contend with but there was a strong wind that made things awkward. He peresevered and again caught tiny Roach, but at 2.45 he lost a good fish through a hook pull. He did have one decent roach later on. His comments were that it was a tough old day but very enjoyable all the same.

Fishing the Ford again on Saturday he had another good day, It started quite slow with one or two roach followed by a bream of 3lb 13oz on corn. He had some decent roach to 14oz mostly on hemp and one small chub of about 12oz He then had the 2 fish that made the day, two very nice Great Ouse Bream weighing 7lb 5oz and 8lb 11oz also both caught on corn. He said "The river bream do hang on a bit that’s for sure, neither gave up all the way to the net and I thought at first both were chub and provided great sport on roach gear 17 acolyte ,stick and pin 3.2lb main line and a 1lb 5oz hook length and a fine wire size 14 hook"
