CT offers universal reciprocity at present, so next year a Mass resident can fish there with his $10 Mass license. Unless that changes.

CT is the only state so far charging outrageous license fees. Most other states it's $10-$15.

NY only offers reciprocity to CT, and only on contiguous waters, I believe.

NJ hasn't agreed on a license bill yet AFAIK.

The southern states' licenses predate Magnuson-Stevens, so I don't believe there is any reciprocity
