Luton Angling Club - River Ouse at Eaton Ford, St Neots

The Club purchased this one time basket willow plantation in the early 1950's and it was the club's regular winter match venue as the original Little Barford power station used the water from the river through its cooling towers and then discharged the warmed water back into the river. This ensured that the temperature of the river through St.Neots was well above normal winter temperatures and the fishing benefited accordingly with good roach, bream and tench fishing all year round. Since the closure of the old power station and the subsequent building of the current gas fired replacement, the river at Eaton Ford is very similar to the River Ouse elsewhere with chub and perch being more noticeable.

This fishery is a relatively short stretch of "Left" bank between the inlet of Duloe Brook at the upstream end down to the Eaton Meadows Park and is for the majority of its length opposite the Rush Meadows Camping and Caravanning Park situated on the Eynesbury Bank. There is also a backwater at the downstream end which can provide good fishing if the main river is in flood.

The fishery provides a variety of swims from sheltered slack at the upstream end through to deep water right under the bank in the wooded area down to rush and "cabbage" mid way down the length culminating in 8ft deep trotting swims at the downstream end.
