Ratings and reviews

Easy to navigate but it won't let me renew my fishing license. I tried the website and on the app.

Everything you need right on your phone which pretty much everyone always has on them anyways. No more wet soggy fishing license.

This app is very helpful! You can easily see the public hunting areas in the state as well as your current location in relation to public access boundaries (barring any internet connection issues). I would've given 5 stars but, when using the maps of the hunting and fishing areas, they don't include the restrictions found on maps from the ODNR website (ex: LaDue Area). A hunter could easily be in a restricted area and not know it if they are only relying on the app. That is a serious issue.
