The Grand Union Canal is fishing well with more anglers on the bank. Plenty of sizeable Bream up to 4lb have been showing on sections 8, 9 and 10 with decent Roach ad Perch and at Stoke Hammond skimmers to 1½lb. Slapton is producing good bags of Skimmers and there are also plenty of carp being seen early in the morning. Plenty of day ticket anglers were out at the weekend with good bags of skimmers, roach and perch reported. The odd mid-double carp was seen on sections 8-10.

There was also a report of a 42lb Carp coming out from the Town South section. This fish would smash the current club record. The club is waiting for the new record to be claimed.

On North House Lake junior member Adam Sheehan broke his personal best with a 25lb 2oz Common Carp. Ivan Sayer caught a common of 25lb 4oz and Joseph Regan had one at 14lb 8oz.

On the South Lagoon Mark Simmonds had Tench of 6lb 6oz and 5lb 13oz plus 40lb of Bream.

Graham and Julie Murfin caught between 70-80lb of Bream the largest weighing 9lb.
