You have to buy a non-resident (in your case) license in every state. This may be a bit of a problem, because many states have become somewhat competitive with their neighbors (defined as other states on the same continent) in terms of pricing of the license. Maryland, for example, charges the same amount for a non-resident license as the state you come from would charge someone from Maryland.
The eye for an eye mentality aside, I don't know what they'd do about someone from outside the country. What does Yorkshire charge someone from Maryland??? Remember, the guys and gals that sell these things aren't usually hired for their great judgement. You can usually buy 3-5 day permits in any state. Each state sells their own license. You will probably have to buy a trout stamp in any state, and in Maryland there are tidal and non-tidal licenses as well. You'll want a license that includes, trout stamp, tidal, non-tidal. That way you can fish anywhere in the state. You have to watch out for this kind of thing in other states as well. To further complicate thangs, The entire Potomac River is in Maryland, so you can fish with a Maryland permit in any of the water of the Potomac, but you need a Virginia Permit to stand on the Virginia shore and fish in the Maryland water. If you're in a boat, you can cast all the way to the high water mark in Virginia, but you can't legally put your foot on shore with a rod in your hand without a Virginia permit. When you get down to the mouth of the Potomac, this can be a shootin' offense. Maryland and Virginia have had something of a shooting war going on for about 300 years over water rights down there. Some fun. --- Steve, In Maryland ____________________________________________________________ Free Poetry Contest. Win $10,000.
