South Lagoon (Wyboston)

A 20-acre former gravel pit on the Wyboston Lakes complex alongside the A1, managed by Luton Angling Club. One of the finest mixed coarse day-ticket venues in the county, with outstanding predator fishing - pike to 32lb and zander to 16lb - alongside bream to double figures, tench to 10lb, and carp to over 41lb. Good disabled access with parking right next to the pegs.

• Day tickets are paid on the bank to an authorised Luton AC bailiff carrying photo ID. Just arrive and start fishing - the bailiff will come to you.
• Check the Luton AC events calendar before fishing to avoid a wasted journey - the water may be booked for a match.
• Non-members may fish 28 numbered pegs on the southern end of the lagoon only, from the first peg to the river inlet.
