Its a shame that the owners of fishing waters are not forced by law to check that you have a fishing licence before you buy a day ticket. Maybe they should be fined if they sell tickets to people without the correct licence.

Only 12,700 anglers have licences ?

 

Shurly there musht be shum mishtake. (That ws my Sean Connery impression)

i agree with mdhome about the people that own these day ticket should check that people have a licence. i have been too some places were the bailiff only asked to see tickets
