West coast is not as simple as you state. We just work better together.
State rules are out to 3 miles and then federal rules. We have to have a
license to fish the salt and is same as Freshwater and costs about $32. I
have a lifetime license so do not follow the costs as much now. But the
license is good to fish in another states waters, as long as you do not
tough shore in that state. My Califonis license I can launch at Smith River
and fish into Oregon waters, about 4 miles notrth. As long as I do not go
into Brookings for fuel or bait, I can bring the fish back into Calif. If
launch out of Brookings I have to have an Oregon license. Forget what it
cost me 2 years ago, but seems expensive.

Well, good for you guys.

It don't work that way around these here parts. :)
