The association established over a century ago is the local coarse fishing society based in the town of Shefford.  SDAA has an open membership with no joining fee for new members. The association controls the fishing rights on several excellent lakes and premier stretches of the rivers in and around Bedfordshire, and caters for the general angler, specimen hunter and match angler.  In recent seasons, SDAA waters have produced specimen catfish over 45lb; carp over 40lb; pike over 30lb; barbel, tench and bream all over 10lb; chub over 6lb; perch over 4lb; and roach over 3lb.  SDAA waters include stretches of the rivers Great Ouse (stretches above and below Bedford), Ivel, Flit and Ivel Navigation. The lakes include the Airman Pit, Willington Lake, Broom Lake and Stanford Pit.  Membership of SDAA also entitles members to fish the Ivel Protection Association controlled stretches of the river Ivel and MKAA controlled stretches of the Grand Union Canal.  If you require further information then please contact Richard Bell (tel. 07594 253239 or e-mail)), or why not call in and have a chat with Andy Davis at the tackle shop in the High St. Map for Andy's Andy's website

 Club member / bailiff Richard Knight is off on another fundraising cycle trip, following a successful Lands end to John O’Groats trip 2 years ago.
He is raising money for Cystic Fibrosis and will be leaving Baldock on 12th June, cycling west to St Davids in Wales.
On arrival at St Davids, turn and head east to Lowestoft. On arrival, head for home.
The estimated mileage is around 850 miles and will be done over 12 days. He will be camping all the way. No support (other than my fellow cyclist, Dave).
He is also hoping to stop off at Willington during the 24 hour match, for a cuppa!
Any donations to this worthy cause will be very much appreciated. Donations can be made via www.justgiving.com/west2eastandback Pictures to appear on the web on his return.
