You will need to bring your own fishing equipment and bait and obtain an Environment Agency rod licence in advance if you are aged 13 or over. Some help and support will be available from our Let's Fish coaches on the day and parents can offer limited assistance. This is one of 34 events spread across 8 regions of the country.
