It would all depend what you are doing with you catch.
If you intend to sell them then you will require a licence.

Sounds like you need to meet an experienced boat buddy to advise you on sea lore, safety etc. If you reveal your general location to the lads in the boat angling Q/A section below, you might get an offer.

You need a licence to fish for sea trout and salmon, and there's a closed season. There's also a closed season for Bass, but no licence required for them.
