Don,

It depends on the states involved and the agreements they've made, if
any. As an example NY & PA, and PA & NJ have reciprocal agreements on
the Delaware River.

In contrast, on this same river there are no reciprocal agreements for
hunting. So a duck hunter would have to have the license of the state
whose shore he is on and in the case of boats, of the state of ingress
and egress. It gets tricky with islands... better know what state the
island belongs to.
