Saltwater license

So who knows for sure that the saltwater endorsement on my CT license will allow me to walk the sand in RI. RI is so much better as far as access spots goes. (or is that just because I don't really know CT spots?) I have fished Meigs jetty and WH Beach, but that's all I know for spots in CT. Thanks in advance, Russ

As far as I have been told, your good to go! I have been asking RI shops about the coastal lagoons, like Ninigret. I want to go fly fishing for the worm feeding bass, but am not sure about the licencing. The few shops I asked said they know I can fish the beaches and coastal waters, but it's not too clear about the lagoons. So go my friend, go forth and cast away! Very Happy

Resurecting this thread, now wondering if my CT license is good in NJ?

I would call to make sure, but from what I understand, as long as you hold a salt water licence or hold a National Saltwater Angler Registry card, you should be abe to fish in any state in salt water. Like I said, I would call to make sure first.

here is the link to the registry form.
