OH HR116

Designates September 25, 2021, as National Hunting and Fishing Day in Ohio to recognize hunters and anglers for their conservation and economic contributions.

Ohio's hunters and anglers generated $301 million in state and local tax revenue and $51.65 million for Ohio Department of Natural Resources conservation efforts.

1.56 million hunters and anglers contribute $2.75 billion annually to Ohio's economy and support more than 46,800 jobs.

Hunting and fishing traditions in Ohio date back before statehood and helped establish the Ohio Department of Natural Resources through the American System of Conservation Funding.
