Fishing
Whether or not you need a licence to fish will depend on what type of species you are fishing for.
A rod licence is required when fishing for freshwater fish, eels, salmon or sea trout anywhere in England or Wales and out to six miles at sea. This can be obtained from the Environment Agency - Buy your rod licence online.
No licence is required for saltwater fish such as mackerel, bass or mullet.
Further details of fishing in the South West, including Plymouth Sound and the estuaries is available from the Environment Agency - South West fisheries guide.
