Covid-19 Advice for Anglers

On the 14th October 2020, the Government introduced a new three tier system of Covid restrictions.

Fishing and outdoor sports remain accepted by the Government as low risk activities and can largely continue within the new regulations in all the three tiers. However, there has been some tightening of the restrictions and the government discourages travel into and out of the Tier 3, Very High, alert level areas. As anglers we have an individual responsibility to fish safely, to adhere strictly to the rules and to follow the appropriate guidance for travel in the various areas.


For advice and further restrictions on local lockdowns, please see the latest Government guidance.
