Licence - fishing licence

Before you can start fishing, you will need a valid:

• Outdoors Card ( a plastic identification card, valid for three calendar years), and
• a fishing licence (valid for either one or three calendar years).

A fishing licence can be for either:

• conservation (reduced catch limits)
• sport (normal catch limits)

Further information on the Outdoors Card, obtaining a fishing licence as well as fees and catch limits can be found by visit the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry website.
