Ok, seems like I need to island hop. It also sounds as if I will not be able to hunt public due to bird season?
Are there any outfitters or people that do unguided/trespass fee type hunts? It is probably best to PM them to me to stick with the forum rules. Even if they are guided please send them to me and I will check them out.
Elksticker - I sent you a PM in reference to C and S as I cannot find anything other than a Facebook page for them.

I think it is more if a you wouldn't want to thing vs. you can't.

That implies organization and I wouldn't quite say that is the norm over in HI. Go to the HI State hunting site and look over the public area using some of the recommendations above and from my link.

Oh, ok I misunderstood and thought someone said goats were closed due to bird hunting. Alright, I will read over your post on PBS again. There was a lot of good info in there.

LV2HUNT They are called Hawaii Bowhunting Outfitters. We (Mana'o Productions) just did the video for their website. I would attach a link but it features my wife hunting with a compound. Check out their website. They are located in Kona on the island of Hawaii.

From looking at the regs it looks like the only thing open during January is unit G which is in the Na Pali Coast State Wilderness Park. It says hunting is open year round and that there are 3 day permits available.
Do you guys have experience hunting specifically in that area?

Steve, what are you guys doing for sleeping bags, shelter, and food on the trail?

I have a 1# sleeping bag (North Face?); I use a extremely small "Vargo" alcohol stove; a Hennessey Hammock (but you can use a foam pad); and for food I take some Mtn House, a few bars, oatmeal would work, too many possibilities to list. It's almost tropical enough that you don't need a bag, but not quite.

When I lived on Oahu, I killed my first 2 boar hogs hunting the area along the Pali Highway which is bowhunting only. If you're able to hunt there, it's an option. No help for me when I started there so I walked up several ridges and found some great wallows and rubs - that's where I had some success. Good luck and enjoy the islands!

Alright, you all have started me thinking. My wife is wanting to go to "The Mouse" in August, but I want to go back to Hawaii. I'm working my boys (6 and 8) right now as to what they really want and without coaxing, they both want Hawaii again. They both remember 1 1/2 years ago and really loved it. Is there anything open at all in the month of August to hunt? If so I honestly believe she could be swayed easily.

Steve H, Hunted a bit with Rick and his dad, Clyde, and son, Ricky Boy. Very fond of the family. Please pass along Aloha when you next see them. Also, Rick has stepped up to a recurve!? Best regards, Todd

Todd: It has been several years since I hunted the the B-dets. Rick apparently goes both ways, lol. he and his girlfriend Cathy got married about 2 years ago. Do you know their "Howley" buddy Bigfoot Bob?
