Fishing licence requirements vary across the United Kingdom:
A valid rod fishing licence is required to fish for freshwater species. Licences are issued by the Environment Agency.
A rod licence is not generally required for freshwater fishing, but permission from the fishery or landowner is required. Some fisheries may operate their own permit systems.
A rod licence and, in many cases, a permit are required.
It is the responsibility of each angler to ensure they hold the correct licence and permissions before fishing. Laws and requirements may change, so anglers should check official government sources before fishing.
