Ohio Fishing Licence

One Ohio fishing licence covers every public water in the state — resident annual about $25, non-resident about $51, with 1-day and 3-day options. There is no separate trout stamp. Muskingum Watershed (MWCD) lakes need their own launch permit, and a few city reservoirs (e.g. Findlay) ask for a cheap local permit. Buy at ohiodnr.gov/buy-licenses or in the HuntFish OH app.
