No answer at the moment as far as I can tell? The vaccine doesn´t stop you catching the virus it minimises the risk of severe consequences and the scientists are still not abale to determine whether you can still spread the virus if you have it and after receiving the vaccine. I think travel abroad will be on hold for months until the scientists understand more about the vaccine, virus and new variants, if we thought last year was tough, this one is going to be worse!

Problem is many people that got vaccinated have positive test results so if test will be the norm (without considering vaccination)than good luck to them...

we will no doubt still have significant testing and quarantine rules on both sides of the channel. Not many people will be able to take 3 or possibly 4 weeks off work to self isolate either side of a fishing trip to France.
I was thiking about that the other day, I wonder if people who can prove they have had the vaccine will be allowed to travel freely or whether as more of these ruddy mutant strains become apparent it will mean sweet fa.
There in lies the Q, if it does allow you to travel will you be able to buy the vaccine to allow you to travel, might be well worth it if so.
Was thinking about it as I've had the jab but the Mrs who comes with me hasn't..yet.

From various Facebook pages it looks like there are a lot of anglers looking to rearrange trips for the first half of this year....(my party included) and some fishery owners are doing so, others however are telling them to wait and that they, "won't lose their holiday"....
Problem will be however and the reason fishery owners are being asked now to move dates, is that even if the French authorities relax the rules enough to allow trips to recommence in April/May we will no doubt still have significant testing and quarantine rules on both sides of the channel. Not many people will be able to take 3 or possibly 4 weeks off work to self isolate either side of a fishing trip to France.
In those circumstances it will then be the individuals choice whether to travel or not and not many fishery owners, (if any) will then agree to give alternative dates or a refund....so despite what they say, many will end up losing their holiday.
Difficult situation and certainly no winners here for sure...

slightly off topic (nowt new there  )
I normally go to portimao, estoril etc every winter on track for some racebike practice, last yrs was cancelled, got money back fine, i wont be booking again, as its a £2.5K trip for 4 days, including tyres etc.
too much grief and disappointment to bother in my book (Sadly)

Really helpful post.... 
Ours was rolled over from 2020 for what it's worth. I doubt anyone would be stupid enough to book expensive holidays for this year without giving it at least a little bit of thought....

Well this wont be popular......anyone who has recently booked a foreign holiday fishing or not for the near future deserves all the stress they get.

There is going to be an anouncement later this week, it looks like we will be going back into a full lockdown again here in France.

Looks like anyone booked to go to France for at least the first 6 months of the year is probably not going......France already have a 7-day isolation rule in force on arrival and now the UK look as though they will impose a 10-day Hotel stay on re-entering the UK......

Will be a point where we just have to live with the virus in its many forms. Open things up, protect the vulnerable and get economies moving. A bit like war, you accept casualties for the greater good.
