Question about Youth Fishing Rules

[DW72]

My answer is yes as the license age in Ohio is 16. Kids can fish alone and keep fish so why not with their family. However, I'd let a charter captain confirm on this site as they will definitely know.

Or...just call the Ohio DNR real quick and ask them to gain 100% confidence.

Happy fishing!

He/she/it/they/him/her...lol just has to be able to reel in a fish, even with the help of a parent, so that it's legal. You can't take a very young toddler out there and keep a limit for them.
