Many states do have some kind of fishing license for saltwater anglers. In those states, the actual requirements for who has to have a license vary from state to state. States that are currently without any saltwater fishing license include Maine, Vermont, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New York, New Jersey, Delaware, Oregon, Hawaii and the western Pacific and Caribbean territories.

Those that do are Alaska, Alabama, Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Louisiana, Texas, California, and Washington
11 don't have them and 12 do, and Alabama isn't even a coastal state (their license is for Mobile bay only).....that Most States comment is a little suspect.
so that's a 50/50 split between the coastal states.
I prefer to keep my money in my pocket...I don't need to dish out yet another licensing fee. I already buy Freshwater liceneses for 3 state...I don't need to buy 3 or 4 more for the Saltwater access.
