too much money to improve fish stocks before they could bring in a license and no way to police it if they did  theres almost 20,000 miles of coast in the uk , theres what 4 maybe 6 EA folks per county who go out checking fresh water licenses ( i know i keep seeing the same 4 in the north east and have only met 2 in kent out of 12 inspections when fishing down there )

still it would bring down unemployment as i reckon you would need  what two people ( they always work in two's ) per 30 mile stretch  so 7500 off the dole  and they would be on what grade ? pay so a guess would be about ?16000 + managers ( say 1000 @ ?24000 ) so wages would be needing around ?122400000 so the license would need to be say ?80 to cover wages and improvements needed to allow it to be brought in

add to that the office space and support they would need and for the license to be self supporting it would cost you around ?100 / year

or you could scrap the idea as they did and keep the 2-4 million votes they would lose if they brought it in

these are politicians remember , they get voted into power , and the vote is king 
if in danger or in doubt run around and scream and shout
