Saltwater Fishing
Beginning in 2011, saltwater anglers in Massachusetts will be required to purchase a state recreational saltwater fishing permit. This state-issued permit takes the place of a more expensive federal registration that would otherwise be required in 2011. The fee for this permit is estimated to be $10 and will be the same cost for all anglers, including non-residents. Anglers who are younger than 16, or disabled, or who fish only on charter boats or "headboats" will be exempt from this requirement; Anglers age 60 and older will need to obtain a permit but the permit will be free. The permit will be available on-line, by mail, and in person at Massachusetts Division of Marine Fisheries offices in Gloucester, Boston, and New Bedford. For more information on the permit go to: www.mass.gov/marinefisheries
