The only time you would need a rod licence is when you are fishing in fresh water, just need to keep that is mind when you are travelling upstream from the sea, as at some point it will turn to fresh water.

As said, no license, unless you catch trout or salmon.

There are minimum keep sizes though. Find your area here.

YYEEAAAHH! That is excellent news, thanks guys.
I'm not sure why but I couldn't find a definitive answer anywhere else, or at least not one that i trusted.

Thank you,

Rob

It's a 'licence' not a 'license'....a subtle difference but one that must be pointed out! wink
