The catch limit of eight trout killed per day remains, subject to not exceeding the weekly totals given in the table above. Catch and release is permitted once the limit has been reached, provided barbless or debarbed hooks are used. This remains under review.
As a member, should your annual quota be achieved before the end of the season you may continue fishing by purchasing weekly permits at a cost of £30 per week, during which time normal catch limits will apply.
Note: You must also hold a valid Environment Agency Rod Licence.
