Some of these licenses are reciprocal. I'm not the best to answer this. I believe it's on the noaa website?
Check with the Maine Dept. of Marine Fisheries. (or whatever it's called these days) Some states have reciprocal agreements with other states and some don't. BTW - There's a name for people who get their legal advice from forums. I believe they're called "inmates."
well sorri if i ask wrong questions i already have my lisc.in maine just didnt see were other states may accept it ill go back and look deeper sorri if i afended you peter
He didn't mean it that way Haddock. He's spot on though. Something like this where you can/could get in trouble I wouldn't take anything said on a forum as law. Otherwise you could end up as an inmate if you get the wrong information. (I think that was the joke there) :)
I'd go right to the source which in this case I think is noaa? I'll try googling here.

This has even more info:

If someone can come up with whose reciprocal to who etc I'll make it a sticky at the top of the forum.
Then again it would be more fun to visit PeterJay in the clinker he'll probably get Charlie Sheen or Nick Cage as his cellmate :D

Don't pay any attention to me Haddock - I'm a professional smartass. We're used to insulting each other around here, but it's all in fun. I'm ten times more offensive that you ever dreamed of being. BTW - where do you live in Maine?
:P
haha ain't that the truth
I love that smiley :)

Jeez, and here I though I was offensive - there's gotta be a law against this kind of treatment. You're just jealous because the women all treat me like I was James Bond.
HAHA James Bond
Now THAT'S a scary image :)
