THE Northwich Mini-League ended in triumph for the Smiths, writes JOHN STUBBS.

Neil Smith won the match with two carp worth 25-5-0, but Keith Smith won the overall individual title, with a gross 79-4-0.

Champion team were Lymm 33pts, from Dave’s of Middlewich 34, Edgeley Sports 40 and Cheadle 41.

Farmers Arms AC, now adopted by Rudheath SC, drew Prince Albert AS at home in the Angling Times Pubs and Clubs Knockout and lost 5-3.

Had aggregate weight been the deciding issue Farmers/Rudheath would have won.

Ian Buckley 4-6-0 and Frank Slater 4-3-0 were first and second, too.

Alan Forster only needed 3-10-4 to go home with the final honour of the Barnton-Frodsham AC year, the End of Season Cup, fished at Heesom’s Pool on Sunday.
