@FreeDivingHawaii - They give out 200 fishing licenses every quarter or something like but you are designated to the pier and the beach near rifle range. Daytime hours only. I'm also a civilian and ran into DLNR that threatened my job even though I hadn't thrown my pole out yet. This after speaking with another officer prior that said I was good to go. This is confusing, stories need to get straightened out I suppose. Losing my livelihood for fishing the ocean where I grew up is just cold
Nope can't get on to north beach unless u know somebody! But, the beach has changed! Not as much fish, shells and the sand has moved alot exposing the reef! Very sad! I usto go watch fish there 10 years ago. Now no more! Gatta let them repopulate again!
It's an ineffective squid lure I bought and strung up, from the fishing store.
I thought it was great idea for attracting fish, but since it is always behind you in tow, I'm not so sure it works, and with a 75 foot tagline its hard to always look back, even when the water is clear enough for 75 foot vis.
Its kind of lame the military can dive/fish those waters and the civilians/locals cannot to be honest.

@digipoi - Well, I'm a civilian and I still get to dive there. It's not closed to civilians.

Is there a way to dive those waters as a civilian? I know those grounds are awesome.

You can go in if only with a military friend.
I've been there twice and don't agree with your notion of the grounds.
I will give it another couple of chances and dive a different part of the base.
