According to the back of my '86 Mass fishing license, a non-resident pays the 
following fees:

Fishing                 $17.50
Fishing-7 days          $11.50
Hunting-small game      $23.50
Hunting-big game        $48.50
Trapping               $300.00

Appears to be no change from last year.  Resident fees for comparison:

Fishing                 $12.50
Hunting                 $12.50
Sporting                $19.50
Trapping                $20.50

Resident Aliens pay more, Minors, Elders Handicapped pay less or are free.

62.23** NH non resident $$?? **CGVAX2::HAGERTYJack Hagerty KI1XMon Mar 07 1988 18:5514
    Anyone know if the non-resident fees in   .3  are still correct.
    ($24.00 1986)
    My resident went up by about 30% in 1987 - which Im still ticked
    off about.   What did they do, or what are they gonna do with the
    extra $$???
    
    Same subject but different - I have 3 "full" licenses. My resident
    N.H, and and non-resident Mass and N.Y.  How would any of you noters
    like to be retiredd and travel the country fishing. How could you
    afford it??   -- How about a voice for a national fishing license.
    Good anywhere in the country. I know, I know - all the revenue loss.
    Let each state charge a little more to each citizen. If we can do
    it with drivers licenses, we can....

    re:24 Thanks Don. 
    !!!!!   $30 for a non-res fishing. Who are they kidding. What a
    ripoff. What have they done to the fishing in this state to justify
    that kind of increase. I wonder who many who used to buy a license
    now wont. 
    My out of state NY ticket is $27.50 and NH cant hold a candle to
    the fishing thats there.
    My out of state Ma is/was $17.50. And thats w/o state tax!! NH should
    be more in line with this charge - reason is the effort both put
    into their fishing assets.                                    
    I feel sorry for the non-residents who have to pay this.
    
62.26It could be worseSA1794::CUZZONESdown the hatch without a scratchTue Mar 08 1988 15:5110
    Jack,
    
    Believe it or not, things are worse elsewhere.  I recall reading
    that Fla. and Ala. got in a p*ssing contest last year and one of
    them raised the non-resident fee to $60 or something outrageous
    and did away with short term licenses.  The other state retaliated
    with expensive hunting fees.  I'm not sure where the escalation
    stopped.

62.27RAINBO::MACINTYREIn search of the Largemouth Bass...Tue Mar 08 1988 16:026
    Don't now about Ala but Florida's rates are real reasonable, I have
    them at home (along with piles of maps and info that the state sent
    me on request).  It may have been less than $20 for a 7 day license,
    I didn't pay much attention to it, whatever it costs, I'll pay it.
    Considering the amount of trophies that tourists kill each year,
    I'm suprized it's not more $...  donmac
62.28CLUSTA::STORMTue Mar 08 1988 17:298
    I'm not sure about fishing license fees down south, but many of
    the southern states have 'reciprocal' fees for hunting license.
    That is, if you're from Alabama and want to buy a Mississippi
    hunting license, you pay Miss. whatever fee Alabama charges.
    Seems pretty fair to me.
    
    Mark,
    
62.30FLA 10 day = $11.50HPSCAD::WHITMANAcid rain burns my BASSThu Mar 10 1988 13:4615
re .29

<    A 10 day non-resident fishing license in Florida is only $10, and
<    it's $25 for a year.     Don Mac 
<

	Hey Don, 
		For that 10 day license in FLA, add $1.00 for the Agent and
	$ .50 for the "sub-agent".   $10.00 + $1.00 + $.50 = $11.50.

	If you buy from a 'county tax collector' you can save the $.50 which
	the sub-agent (read K-mart, tackle shop, etc...) gets.
