Fishing
Town and city clerks usually issue fishing licenses, but the Massachusetts Division of Fisheries and Wildlife has also approved other vendors in many towns. See where to get your freshwater fishing license or purchase a resident license online or a non-resident license online.
 
No license is required for saltwater fishing in Massachusetts, but the Division of Fisheries and Wildlife publishes comprehensive daily updates on the sport, including local advisories.
