Yup, there's logical thinking.
If anyone here drops more than $1000 a year on tackle, and is torqued off about having to spend $50 to fish in 2 states, I would respectfully suggest you're suffering from head up your ass syndrome.

No, I don't drop even half that a year, usually keep my head on my shoulders and above my waist.
I don't think we are talking 15 bucks every state will bang the nonres for as much as possible, meanwhile I assume,
the landlocked states do contribute to federal saltwater fishing management.
Last year I fished in five states, this year it will be at least 6. How about a stamp similar to a duck stamp for saltwater fishing and a general fishing license, think about it are mass guys going to need 2 licenses to fish in Holyoke or Lawrence and saltwater for stripers.
The res/non res license is another issue.
Of course if I brought some small stripers home and planted them in champlain I would only have to travel half an hour, and have one license.
