Do I Need A License?Resident and nonresident recreational fishermen age 16 or older must have a Basic Fishing License and Saltwater License. The entire coast of Louisiana is brackish waters, so you'll be catching freshwater and saltwater species side-by-side! If you do not currently possess a valid Louisiana fishing license, you can purchase a Charter Passenger License for only $10. The license is valid to fish from a charter vessel with a licensed guide on board at all times, and this license is is valid up to 3 days. You must provide the charter guide’s license number when you purchase a Charter Passenger License. Contact us if you need assistance! Licenses are also available at special rates for seniors, military, students, and people with disabilities. Purchase a Louisiana fishing license here.
