apart from bass 40cm - there are no other legal fish sizes - to take from rod and line fishing

i remember seeing a list before for fish lengths required to sell in shops - but i cant remember where it was

for that matter it appears to be never adhered to in most places

Here's a link to a list of Irish Angling Regulations
http://www.cfb.ie/fishing_in_ireland/An ... ations.htm

You will require a Licence if you are to fish for Sea Trout in the sea.
All fish over 40cm which you keep will have to be tagged, bag limits apply.
