Why are license’s necessary and tagging?

                    Nearly 7% of the United States population either hunts or fish. All 7% of those people had to of had to buy a fishing or hunting license. In Ohio a hunting license cost around $19.00 and a fishing license cost around $15.00 that is around $34.00 a single person will have to pay if they are going to do both of those acts. Well there are other costs associated with hunting license. Like tags, when you kill a Turkey another game in Ohio you must tag it with a tag that you bought from the Ohio division of natural resources. That is a separate cost from the $19.00 you paid for the license. Also, when you go fishing the fishing license gets you anywhere on a pond, lake, or stream. There is other cost if you wanted to go fishing on Lake Erie. It's called a charter license so the license only last 3 days and it's around $50. if you're an avid Hunter or Fisher and you enjoy fishing end all the types of hunting. You will have to pay a pretty penny to be able to do all of it. Though it is necessary for you to spend that money. When ODNR (Ohio Division of Natural Resources) Receives your payment for these licenses and tags the money is not just going into their pockets. 100% of the money they receive from these licenses and tags goes into conservation. As an example, ODNR owns fisheries throughout Ohio. These fisheries go out in collect eggs from major rivers and lakes and they take them back to their fishery and raise them up so that they can release the fish back into the lakes and rivers. they do this because eggs have a better chance of survival in a fishery then they do in the wild. they also do this so that they can keep the population growth healthy so that when fisherman go fishing there is a healthy stock of fish in that given water. They also use this money for habitat restoration this includes providing more Woodland for deer and other wildlife and for the fishing side of this they use it for pollution in the water and putting trees and shrubs along the shoreline for fish and other aquatic life for protection. Never believe that the money that you spent on these fishing licenses and hunting licenses goes into people’s pockets because the fact is that they spend all of it on conservation.

Why to Hunt

Some people hunt just to get competitive gain over other people, some people do it so that they can be proud of what they shot and get it mounted, though I do it for the meat. Though its hard to just go out and kill something if you don’t know what that particular species of animals like. For example, if you are hunting for deer, they like corn and nice green grass. They usually only come out in the early mornings and later in the evening. So it would not be a wise choice to go out at high noon because the only thing you are likely to see is squirrels and birds. Now if your hunting for squirrels don’t sit in a field because they don’t run through fields they are tree climbers. So the smart thing to do is To go out in the woods and find a nice stop to sit on and just wait for the squirrels to run around and chase each other. Usually for squirrel hunting you can throw some jeans on in a camo shirt and that'll do you justice. Not like when you're hunting for deer you should wear a

Fishing

Fishing is my favorite activity, because it takes patience and drive. Many people don't like fishing because they believe it is boring and that you never catch anything. And my response every time is that, that’s why they call it fishing and not catching. there are sometimes that I don't catch anything. Still, I know that there are fish below me. When I have those days that I haven't catched anything, I know I got to go back out there to redeem myself and maybe I made a mistake and that's why the fish aren’t biting. You can break it down to about 2 factors. One factor is that what time did I go out there. Because I have found that some ponds the best fishing is in the morning and the other ponds are best fishing at night and there are some/most that you can fish there in the morning and night and catch a lot. The second factor is that maybe I used the wrong bate, because usually I use fake bait. Though in a lot of cases I have found that some ponds are better fishing wi

Why hunting and fishing is necessary

        One of the many reasons is that it puts food on the table. There is a growing number of people in the world that are having a hard time putting food on the table. Due to the growing number of unemployment and low wages. Yes, there are many different programs that can help with the difficulty, though there are no programs out there where the person can pay about 20 dollars for a hunting permit. With one deer harvested, that person can get about 80 pounds of meat and here in Ohio anyone with a permit can harvest 7 deer. If that person harvested 7, they could essentially have 540 pounds of meat for the low cost of 20 dollars. Though there are some more cost for the weapon that the hunter uses. If the hunter is using a bow n arrow a bow can usually cost 100 dollars plus 20 dollars for arrows. That is now 140 dollars for five hundred and forty pounds of meat for that person's hungry family. For other expenses we will just round 140 dollars to 200 dollars. If we do the math that
