Default National Fishing License??? Good/Bad Idea?

So here are my thoughts. I just got my CDL which, if I go OTR, will take up a lot of my spring/summer/fall fishing time. I was thinking about a national fishing license for those who travel ie. Truck Drivers, RVers, Business Travelers, and any one else who finds themselves out and about on a regular basis. Personally I would pay about 50-60 bucks to be able to do this. Say they charged $55... $1.10 would go to each individual state, $5 to fed gov for the program, grants, habitat, etc. if 1 million people got the license (just a round number, Im sure it will be a lot more) each state would get $1.1 Million annually and the fed would get $5 Million.
Yes/No/Maybe? Thoughts?
