## Quick answer

State of Hawaiʻi fishing rules apply, and nonresidents need a recreational marine fishing license.

## Detailed answer

Ocean fishing here follows State of Hawaiʻi rules set by the DLNR Division of Aquatic Resources, which cover limits, seasons and gear. Hawaiʻi residents do not need a license for recreational ocean fishing, but nonresidents aged 15 and older need a Nonresident Recreational Marine Fishing License. Check the Division of Aquatic Resources' current rules before you fish, and keep lines and hooks well away from swimmers.
