Before you fish in fresh water in England & Wales, you must obtain a National Rod Licence issued
by the Environment Agency. These can be obtained from any Post Office, or online from the EA
website. This National Rod Licence does not entitle you to fish on any waters. These waters are
usually leased to clubs who control day-to-day fishing on their stretch. Most clubs allow
non-members to fish for a daily fee. This is paid to a club bailiff when they identify themselves
to the angler. However, when finding a suitable site, the angler must check on nearby bridges that
no club or British Waterways signs are visible prohibiting day fishing, or specifying that permits
must be purchased in advance. Some angling licences can be bought on line from the Environment
Agency website.
