Welcome to the board.
It depends on the state you are in and somewhat on what you are gathering but in general yes you do. For example, in NC you would need a license for the fish but not for the clams or scollops (under a certain amount). Some fish have creel and size limits, others do not. Your going to have to find the regulations for the particular region you intend to hunt.

Out here in Washington the answer is yes to all (except for lobster don't have those). And we are limited to the where, how much as well as the when. Most often where ever you would but your license you would find the rule book.

Yes to all in california, some areas will also require additional stamps, always best as mentioned to carefully read the local regulations and check with the local stores before taking ANYTHING out of the water.
For me in Florida:
Std FL Salt Water fishing License, Lobster & Stone Crab stamp
