Hi Paul

I'm advised it'll be possible to purchase tickets from the Councils website from next Monday. Happy fishing!

Best wishes

Derek

I,ve replied that this means that no permits are available for the 11th , the normal start of the season. Pretty shoddy stuff .

Paul.

I got exactly the same reply today. I don't suppose there will be a discount for missing the start of the season either. Does anyone know which beats the council have this year?

Excellent news thank you. Maybe my email to Derek informing him of the annual march on Sat.  achieved the desired result. Good stuff.
