So as of this time RI and MA do not recognize each others licenses. Am i reading this correctly? I was really hoping the MA, RI and CT would all cover each other.

Everything is better on the rocks.

that's the way I read it Rob - but I think this reciprocity stuff is evolving . . .


Saltheart - thanks for posting that info - it was most helpful

"All permit fees will be deposited in a dedicated account, managed by the Division of Marine Fisheries"

This is like giving free crack to an addict!

It wont be long before DMF officials are driving BMW's now...

This plan is already WAY too complicated and will not do what it is intended to do...help count fish.

I was just thinking, what does a guy from Vt do, buy a license from each state.

Now that NY has just eliminated its license and gone over to a free registry like NJ, will RI follow suit?

Has anyone found anything official, stating that MA and RI are reciprocal states?

I found this on the RI DEM site...

http://www.dem.ri.gov/programs/bnatr...df/saltabs.pdf

Page 7, first paragraph lists Connecticut and New York only.


I found this on the MA DMF site....


http://www.mass.gov/dfwele/dmf/recre...dual_ma_ri.pdf

A letter from Paul Diodati stating that MA would accept another state, if that state accepts ours...


????? ...........?????

What's the final verdict and where can one officially find it???

...it finally happened, there are no more secret spots

The MA site has pdf documents showing the reciprocity with RI, CT, and NH.

The number is on the RI license in real small print so I wrote it on the back much larger before laminating it.

Well you made me laugh! It's been a long, tough day and I needed that.

Thank you nightfighter. I do have the MA # in my phone as well as local police.
It's all good.

The licenses have nothing to do with fishing, it has to do with identity checks.

I didn't. I had the federal license. Just decided to get the RI license and keep the money in the state.

Federal license worked last year. This year I believe in RI you need the RI license which will be reciprocal in CT & Mass.

So NY, NJ, ME, & MD won't get fishing revenue from me.

Will Post this as a sticky - thanks!
