Having a salt water license opens up getting our share of the excise tax back . Those funds are dedicated only for access and fishing improvements .

Both NJ and NY don’t chase those funds because they can’t just put them into the general funds .

So while license fees can be manipulated, the other gains drastically enhance its value .

Guys paying ridiculous ramp fees weekly would really benefit from the excise tax supporting those ramp fees etc .
