About the River Wyre
The River Wyre is 28 miles long. It rises in the Forest of Bowland as two streams, the Tarnbrook Wyre and the Marshaw Wyre, which meet near Abbeystead. It flows south through Dolphinholme to Garstang, where the Lancaster Canal crosses it on a small aqueduct, and a mile further on at Catterall it meets its first big tributary, a river also called the Calder. It then turns west through St Michael’s on Wyre, where the River Brock joins, and is tidal below the weir there. It reaches the Irish Sea at Fleetwood. It is the only major Lancashire river that flows wholly inside the ceremonial county.
The Wyre has wild brown trout, sea trout and salmon, with coarse fish alongside.
The fishing is held by clubs, most of them for members. St Michael’s Angling Association manages stretches from south of Garstang to St Michael’s, and much of its day ticket water is described as mainly coarse fishing. Further up, a fly fishing club holds water around Scorton.
