My local rivers the Mersey, Goyt, Dane and others are rammed with
brown and the occasional rainbow trout that i'm looking forward to
tempting with fly over the next few weeks....however....I have an E.A
license that allows me to fish for non migratory trout and course fish
yet my rivers also contain a small number of Sea Trout and has even
been known to give up the occasional Salmon. Which license do i need

The migratory licence also covers the rest so if you're planning to try for
a few seatrout then that's the one...

and if i stick with my current lisence can a pedantic E.A Bailiff in
full jobsworth mode take any legal action arguing that i'm fishing for
Sea Trout, Salmon or course fish?

....but as long as you have a current (shiny new next week) licence for the
majority of the fish in the water then you're OK as long as you return any
migratory fish taken by accident. One way to operate is to fish for
brownies, keep your eyes open, then on the day you spot a run get a one day
migratory licence and return that evening.

Cheerio,
