fished river wyre at churchtown on the W.A.A. stretch,at 11.00 on 30/01/06.
it was cold, clear & a hard frost from the night before,used liquidised bread with flake on the hook,using a roving approach,& fishing 5-6 different swims.
no chub for the first 2hrs in 2 different swims, then 2 in the space of 30mins about 2lbs and 2.5lbs.
changed swim and straight into another chub this one 3 to 3.5lbs a most enjoyable day and a real test due to the conditions,great to get out and even better to have fish on the bank.

fished again today and yet again had a really enjoyable day cloudy and windy followed by rain around noon, couldn,t stop me from catching 7 chub from 3/4lb to 3lb not big but the tip was moving for most of the session.
bread on hook and liquidised in the feeder.

Nice one pikey it is good to hear others fish my fav' river. I have done well with chees paste. Roving tactics is the way to go. There are some good pike in the river as well.

might have a go at the pike this week-end never pike fished a river before and i don,t think i fancy live baiting so it may be smelt under a float and see what turns up size wise.

Pikey I only ever lure fish and have had some good fish to mid doubles but have seen 20's. I would think sink and draw or as you say trot a dead or static. Again I would also use roving tactics moving between swims.
Whilst lure fishing I have had pike take the good old bulldawg amongst other big lures. Dont't just fish the bends they seem to hold up or down stream of bends. If the river is clear as with chub try under trees and rafts or in little cutouts in the bank but most of all have fun.
May be I will see you some time? I the good looking guy with the brimmed hat!!!
