Closed Require the Environment Agency to suspend the fishing close season

Closed on

Require the Environment Agency to suspend the fishing close season for 2020 regarding the coronavirus situation.
People have not much option for fishing because most of the private lakes are closed and most of the canals are heavily polluted especially in the big cities like London.

Suspend the fishing close season. People need more recreational options for both body and mental health.
We have a lockdown situation, no gyms, no tennis courts, no swimming pools, no private fishing lakes open. But people could do fishing alone or with one family member
