Prepare for the onslaught of replies as we had a fish-in on there this year.

7lb sounds about right though.

The best time i had there was in august when i fished a week day, 10 barbel biggeat 7lb 6oz and 4 chub. Before this day the max i ever had was one barbel and a few chub, and no matter how hard i try i cant repeat this (for me this was a great day). Also is there any big barbel in the stretch as i would love to catch a biggy (8lb+). What were the results of the fish in that you mention and are u having one this year as i would love to watch (OOOEERR).

I too fish lymm anglers stretch at Atcham. My best days have been with Cambells meatballs, either whole or halved. put in plenty of hemp at the start.
I stay away from maggots and casters here because the numbers of minnows and tiny dace beggars belief.

Field 15 opposite the island.
Bang a feeder across the far side and hang on.

Hemp, pellet, caster, maggot.
It doesn't really matter.

Hemp + pellets is certainly the bait in the daytime. We (Mike Fidler, my bro-in-law and myself) went back shorlty after the Fish-In and I had 12 barbel to about 5 lb in an afternoon, upstream a fair way from where we fished the fish-in.
