Minimum Fish Sizes

The London International Club members have high integrity and environmental standards and don't take any under undersized fish. We voluntary adhere to strict environmental standards. Below is a selection of the minimum fish sizes that we respect. Note that the minimum sizes are generally well above the legal requirements in England and that in most cases the fish we catch is substantially above those measures.
