Get Fishing Awards
We’ve developed the Get Fishing Awards to help take you on the first steps of your angling journey – from the unforgettable excitement of catching your first fish, right through to becoming a more experienced angler who can set up tackle, safely return your own fish and have the correct Environment Agency fishing licence. You can’t easily fit all of this into a short ‘taster session’ so we’ve created a simple three-step programme…
Have a Go!

What happens on the day: This event is part of the BRAND NEW Get Fishing Awards. All adults, children and young people attending will discover what angling is all about and how to take up fishing.

There will be Get Fishing volunteers on hand to give tips and help to assess participants in order to award the brand new Get Fishing Award. They’ll also provide you with more info about your local club or fishery, so you know where to go fishing next time.
Tackle: Tackle, and everything else to catch a fish will be provided on the day. No need to bring any equipment.

Can't find a Get Fishing Award near to you?
Here's what to do...
We run Get Fishing Award events where demand is greatest or we have a club, fishery or coach close enough to provide the kind of facilities and coaching that the awards require.
If you can’t find a Get Fishing Award event on this page, please check our national programme of Get Fishing events across the North East, North West, West Midlands, East Midlands, East of England, London and the South East and South West Regions of England.
You can also contact your closest Regional Angling Development Officer to ask where the closest beginner-friendly fishing club, fishery or coach is to you – find them here – or search our map of coaches, venues and events.
Get Fishing is the Angling Trust’s campaign to get more people fishing more often. Each year we run hundreds of events for all ages and abilities. Get Fishing angling events are for anyone who wants to get into fishing, get back into angling or find out where to go fishing, who to go fishing with, what to use to start fishing and how to go fishing for the first time.
The Angling Trust’s ‘Get Fishing’ campaign is proudly supported by
Shakespeare, Exclusive Tackle Partner and Angling Direct, Exclusive Retail Partner
as we all work towards getting more people fishing, more often.
The Get Fishing campaign to get more people fishing more often is funded by the Environment Agency from fishing licence income as part of the National Angling Strategic Services contract with the Angling Trust, and Sport England. Children under 13 do not need a licence, and licences for children aged between 13 and 16 are free but you still need to register and receive a licence in order to go fishing. You can get a licence for the full year, for 8 days (ideal for holidays!) or just a day’s fishing.
NOTE: Although young children who are under 13 year old do not need a licence to fish, the person supervising them needs the proper fishing licence to take hold of the rod or to help the child fish with it.
