The National Rivers Authority - formed in 1989, in part, from the 10 independent Water authorities - introduced the single national rod licence. This, now known as the Environment Agency fishing rod licence, is valid from 1st April until 31st March.
A bit long-winded I know, but I'm now getting to the point: The one 'Season Book' I purchased this past year was from Northants Fisheries - this runs from 1st June until 31st May.
Why oh why can they not produce season tickets/books to coincide with the National Rod Licence? Yes, I know the immediate answer is that these season tickets/books cover rivers as well as lakes, and the Close Season runs from 15th March to 15th June, but this does not obviously apply to the vast majority of lakes. Therefore, why can't they tie in with EA's rod licence?
