Only fished it once, under similar circumstances.
Wide and shallow, some carp to 20, loads of bream.

Weaver had a big fish kill few yrs back. Not sure if it ever recovered?

Le Weaveur is a shadow of what it once was during the '90's... Regards Bottom Flash it was quite prolific in the right areas back then but haven't a clue nowadays.

there's been a few fish kills over the years but there's still a few in there, the fish can move in and out of the flash up and downstream. the most productive area of bottom flash was the end of the spit where the weaver flows into it on the day ticket side, quite often you'd catch more fishing in the river behind you as they moved in and out of the flash.
downstream of the flash was best, the sections belonging to winsford aa and further down below hulses island which is northwich aa, before the fishkills it was some of the best carp fishing in cheshire.
it's not as prolific as the old days but still worth a look
