The phrase "Free Fishing" is in fact in law a misnomer, there is only free fishing wherein the owner allows fishing by default and does not exercise any public management by way of demanding payment for permits or instill any rules.
All Fisheries are owned by an individual , company. council, etc and details are recorded on the Land Registry if searched.
