not to hard to find that in the mass rule book, you posted one of the 2 pages of rules, thats right, 2 pages for those that dont know. mass is pretty much all put and take, the big difference is that all the money from your license goes toward the fishery, they stock bigger fish and lots of them. i live on a pond in mass thats only 30 acres and its not uncommon to get several stockings thru the year, maybe 3000 to 4000 trout per season plus 50 big broodstock salmon. i find people trespassing in my yard, fishing from my yard, on my dock, in my neighbors boat, empties left all over the place. oh and i think winni has a little more to offer. if you want to talk taxes, i moved out of nh to own property, only problem down here for me is that my vote no longer counts, i think they just roundfile it at the pols
