Loc: i fell off the rails
I have a general question..If I want to fish on or after Jan 1 of each year (which I do), I go to Town Hall and get a License as there are no B&Ts convenient to area.
Why is the book for the current year never available, one would think if I need the license I should have a book, no?
Maybe it's time to change the license from say April to April,that way the books will be ready. I have been approached on the Thames on New Years day in the past and asked to produce a license and I am glad they are enforcing this.
The saltwater regs take a while to set because they are required to hold public comment sessions in January/February and then work out the actual regs with the fisheries managers. Its all a farce because they don't listen to public comment and just go with what they want anyway. Once those regs are set they can print the books.

The need to catch up to regulation changes then deal with the printer's schedule. They try to keep the online info up to date for any of the latest changes so if you are looking for something specific in January/February I recommend checking the website.
