The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
England and Wales are broken down into regions that each have their own rules for freshwater fishing, including closed seasons.
You can find out more here:

In England, these rules are set by the Environment Agency, so we could accept a petition calling for a specific change in England.
In Wales, these rules are the responsibility of Natural Resources Wales:

The Welsh Assembly has its own Petitions Committee. If you'd like to petition about closed seasons in Wales you could send your petition to the Welsh Assembly. You can find out more here:
