I broke down and purchased my licenses for next year online.
I did it because I also fish in NH, so I had to get that one as well.

Here's the breakdown:

NH freshwater Non-resident license - $53.00 + $3.00 processing fee
MA freshwater Resident License - $27.50 + $2.42 processing fee
MA saltwater Permit (does not say license) - $10.00 + $1.80 fee

Total is $97.72

I do feel bad for NH saltwater anglers, because their "Permit" cost $16.00 + a processing fee, and they have almost no shoreline compared to the rest of New England.
So I guess the reciprocity aspect of the saltwater permit never got addressed?
