Much improved fishing support!

Much improved support for identifying permitted fishing locations, as well as getting licenses. Used to be good mainly just for seeing DNR news.

Can not log in to renew my fishing license. What a horrible app. The website doesn’t work either. Please fix this!!!!

App not showing locations

I’ve been using the app for years and have never had an issue until now where it shoots up No Results Found when checking other counties for fishing locations I’ve uninstalled and reinstalled several times hoping it’d fix it but hasn’t. Please fix this issue please & thank you
