TIME TO PURCHASE OHIO HUNTING AND FISHING LICENSES
Licenses available statewide at more than 1,300 outlets
COLUMBUS, OH - Anglers and hunters are reminded that it’s time to purchase their 2007-2008 fishing and hunting licenses, according to the Ohio Department of Natural Resources (ODNR). The 2006-07 licenses expire February 28. Licenses can be purchased at vendor outlets across the state and at ohiodnr.com/wildlife on the Internet.
New licenses are valid March 1, 2007 through February 29, 2008. Hunters, especially those gearing up for the popular spring wild turkey season, are reminded that licenses purchased now are also valid during the 2007 fall hunting season.
Resident hunting and fishing licenses cost $19 each; deer and turkey permits are an additional $24 each. Hunters age 17 and under and some Ohio senior citizens are eligible for discounted licenses. A one-day Ohio fishing license costs $11, an amount that can later be applied to the purchase of an annual license. For a complete listing of license prices, please obtain a current copy of the Ohio Hunting Regulations, the Ohio Fishing Regulations or visit ohiodnr.com/wildlife.
