MetroParks Daily Fishing Permits-2026

This is to purchase a Daily Fishing Permit only. The Voice of America Lake is stocked annually in the spring. MetroParks fishing permits are only required to fish at VOA Lake. A State of Ohio fishing license is required to fish at all other MetroParks of Butler County locations. If you are interested in purchasing an annual fishing permit, please visit the Voice of America Welcome Center during business hours. Children 10 years and younger are permitted to fish for free but only as catch and release unless they are fishing with an adult who has paid for a Single Daily Fishing Permit or has an Annual Fishing Permit. In which case, the child's catch will count towards the paid adult's daily limit.
