Night fishing

What permit is required for night fishing ?




To fish at night, you must have a Type C fishing permit.
Permit C allows everything that is authorized under Permit B, plus day and night carp fishing, year-round, using up to three rod setups with plant-based bait or reconstituted flour-based bait. Fishing must be done from the bank only, including from a removable platform that is not left in place after fishing.
