Our Charters

NONRESIDENT MARINE FISHING LICENSE

Fishing licenses are required for non-residents to ocean fish from a boat in Hawaii. Youth under age 15 and Active-duty military personnel and their families are exempt.

Licenses are valid from the date of issue so get your fishing license on the day/week/year you are fishing – not for purchase too far in advance as your trip date may change due to weather or other reasons and the use dates cannot be changed and are not refundable.

License fee $20 (1-day); $40 (7-day); $70 (annual). Pay Here!

Reviews

“My husband and I chose this operator since it was the best value, and they gave a good Kamaaina resident discount. We figured most operators go to the same place by the airport. Our congratulations to Capt. Cassie for achieving her captains’ license! Capt. Cassie, Capt. Jim, and Lori were really friendly and helpful! We had a great time with them. They incorporated some Ono fishing into the trip out to the site and allowed guests to reel in the fish, which was an added thrill for them. We would highly recommend.”

Client Testimonials

The best reference is a good word!

  • Most epic fishing trip ever!!!! I have fished many places and been with some top-notch captains and this trip with Biteme charters was by far the greatest ever! We had so much action it was amazing we were met in the morning by the crew with fruit and pastries as well as smiles and chipper moods! I would recommend anyone I know to fish with BITEME charters!
    Aaron Smith Customer
  • I love this company because I get to go fishing and am able to help other people catch a fish of a lifetime. I love the fact that they are willing to release fish it makes me feel like I'm doing my part in sustaining the local fishery. The crew's encouragement, excitement, expertise, and love for their profession made my whole family even more excited than we already were.
    Nate Figueroa Awesome Customer
  • One of our main goals for our vacation was a fishing trip... Bite Me Fishing and their entire crew made it the most enjoyable trip possible! There were mechanical issues with the boat we were originally scheduled for two days before our trip. Rather than cancel or have to reschedule the owner other company and his team worked to make our trip possible.
