I would gladly pay for a saltwater license if it meant more law enforcement, and with that not only public but commercial also.
I did briefly visit a boat ramp near Crystal River Florida and in the parking lot were no less than 3 F&G trucks and what looked like 7 Conservation officer trucks.

Its nothing "funny" fishy, weird or playing the game. The other 19 states to my knowledge allocated the $$ where it needs to and NJ / NY would NOT. Pretty simple. I also as would many others pay for a SWL if it went to more law enforcement and conservation but plain and simple its not the case yet.
In the meanwhile we comply by using the FREE registry which I have zero issue with except NOAA doesn't send the surveys to as many as they should and rec anglers don't fill out what they should so MRIP is just another failure so for now glad its FREE
