carpbutler Posted August 28, 2009 Report Posted August 28, 2009 ive always wanted to fish in england so next year myself and my mates are giving france a miss for one year and we are planning a trip to england. i need some help finding the right venue. we would be getting the boat to hollyhead. so some where close to that would be ideal. (3-4 hours drive) we were looking to fish a water that holds 30's and maybe 40's to make it interesting. any help or info would be great. Quote
marker Posted August 28, 2009 Report Posted August 28, 2009 not really within 3-4 hours drive of hollyhead but if your giving up a week in france to fish in the uk then its got to be linear fisheries or yateley sandhurst Quote
carpbutler Posted August 31, 2009 Author Report Posted August 31, 2009 thanks for the reply marker. had a look at both of these lakes, they look great. linear looks the dogs. any other suggestions lads?? how much is a rod license in england? what way does this work? Quote
marker Posted August 31, 2009 Report Posted August 31, 2009 http://www.environment-agency.gov.uk/homeandleisure/recreation/fishing/31497.aspx £26 for a year, one licence covers the use of 2 rods, if you use 3 or 4 rods you'll need a second licence you can also get an 8 day licence for £9.50 and the same applies, you'll need 2 of them if you use 3 or 4 rods once you have your rod licence/s you just need your day ticket money good luck mate Quote
