    Fishing
    Visitors who want to fish will find a diverse community of both coarse and game fish. Both national and local permits must be obtained from the Environment Agency and one of the Navigations' angling clubs. Day tickets are available for some areas. The National Trust staff at the Navigations Office, or a water bailiff, can advise as to which club to contact.

    Licences and mooring
    All boats using the Navigations must have a National Trust licence - available from Thames Lock, Stoke Lock or the Navigations Office at Dapdune Wharf.
