reasonable hours. No person shall fail to comply with any report procedure provided for in this section,

of five fishing season days immediately following that conviction. In addition to other penalties provided in the Revised Code, the license of any person
who is convicted of three or more violations of this section that occurred within
a twelve-month period is suspended upon the third or subsequent such conviction by
