[quote name='flukeprodigy' post='14140' date='Mar 31 2009, 10:20 AM']I agree with you in that regard and its not about the money. Its the fact that the money is being collected on behalf of fisherman, yet its not going back into the fisheries to benefit the very people being "taxed" if you will.
You'd think the state would be more concerned with bettering itself but I think we can all agree politicians say one thing, then do another. Obama is a prime example but i won't turn this into a political debate.
Bottom line, if the money collected gets put to good use, I will pay it. Who in their right mind wouldn't pay the $20 to have access to the best saltwater fishing in the N.E.[/quote]
If you look at all the southern states below MD, they require a fishing license to fish the state's waters. If you wanted to turn it into a political debate I believe down south are Republican states. It's about time it made it to RI so dumb ass tri-staters won't cluster our waters.
