Police search for anglers fishing on river when Nicola Bulley disappeared

Detectives searching for missing mum Nicola Bulley are looking at who had permits to fish in the river around the time of her disappearance.

Mum of two, Nicola, 45, disappeared without a trace during a dog walk along the River Wyre in the village of St Michael's, Lancs, on January 27. Police have said their working theory is that Nicola, a mortgage advisor, fell into the river.

But today it emerged that local fishing clubs have been approached by officers wanting information about who was ticketed to be on the river around the time of her disappearance. It comes just days after a report from a potential witness who claims to have seen two men acting suspiciously on the river the day before and the morning Nicola vanished, MirrorOnline reports.
