COLUMBUS – Ohio is known for its world-class fishing , and on May 6-7 , state residents are invited to take part in the annual free fishing weekend , according to the Ohio Department of Natural Resources ( ODNR ). Ohio ’ s Free Fishing Days are open to all Ohio residents and extend to all of Ohio ’ s public waters , including Lake Erie and the Ohio River . This is the only weekend all year that does not require anyone 16-years-old or older to obtain a fishing license .

The ODNR Division of Wildlife ’ s six fish hatcheries stocked more than 54 million sport fish in public waters in 2016 , including walleye , saugeye , steelhead , rainbow trout , brown trout , muskellunge , channel catfish , blue catfish and hybrid striped bass , which will provide opportunities for more than 1.3 million Ohio anglers .

Ohio State Parks is also offering a camping discount during Ohio ’ s Free Fishing Days . Campers can receive a 20 percent off discount May 6-7 by using the promotion code 17ANGLER .

The Free Fishing Days weekend offers Ohioans of all ages the chance to experience the fun of catching a fish . Here are some helpful tips for taking a youngster out fishing .

• Keep the trip simple by considering a child ’ s age and skill level .

• Choose a pond , lake or stream where children will be able to easily catch a few fish .

• A spin-cast reel is usually the easiest for kids to use .

• Bring a camera and snacks .

• Be patient – plan on spending time untangling lines , baiting hooks , landing fish and taking pictures .

• Most of all , keep the trip fun .

Anglers 16 years and older are required to have a valid fishing license to take fish , frogs or turtles from Ohio waters when not fishing on Ohio ’ s free fishing weekend . An Ohio resident fishing license is only $ 19 a year for residents . Fishing licenses are available at participating agents and wildohio . gov .

The sales of fishing licenses , along with the Sport Fish Restoration ( SFR ) program , continue to fund the ODNR Division of Wildlife ’ s fish management operations . No state tax dollars are used for these activities . These are user-pay , user-benefit programs .

The SFR is a partnership between federal and state governments , industry and anglers / boaters . When anglers purchase rods , reels , fishing tackle , fish finder and motor boat fuel , they pay an excise tax . The federal government collects these taxes , and the U . S . Fish and Wildlife Service administers and disburses these funds to state fish and wildlife agencies . These funds are used to acquire habitat , produce and stock fish ; conduct research and surveys ; provide aquatic education ; and acquire and develop boat accesses .
