Anyone know what NY NJ and the souther states are doing with the Saltwater reciprocal deals?

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
