If I go by boat to fish in Rhode Island with my CT resident salt water license, I don't think there is a way to get back to CT by boat without passing through New York Waters that are outside the borders of "Long Island Sound". So technically speaking do I need a NY license to bring my Rhode Island caught fish back to Connecticut?

Second Question. I take a group of 4 buddies fishing on my boat. Lets say we get stopped and 2 of my 4 guests did not have a saltwater license. As the boat owner, am I at all responsible in any way under the law for the 2 fellows in my example that did not have a license?

Thank you in advance for responding!

For questions about New York you need to contact New York EnCon Police.

If your fishing guests do not have a license they are in violation, not you.
