Would be nice if interactive map could toggle color coded fish species and limits. I don't care which area I'm in, but in the regulations by fish species. I'm often fishing at the confluence of areas. I hope that makes sense.

At first, I wasn't sure if I liked the updated version, but so far so good. A very handy reference to keep up to date with all the continually changing regs. Ot is THE reference for BC fishing. My only wish would be that if it senses your location it would just tell you which fish and limits for the sub-region you're in... would require more programming but would make it much more user-friendly.

It is very easy to navigate. How fantastic to have up-to-date regs at your fingertips. Area or zone interactive map is most helpful.

June 3 issue is now fixed. Edit: June 2, 2025: I emailed about the problem on May 30th and just now added the problem using the app. May 30, 2025: I can't depend on this app for regulations anymore. I recommend to check DFO website before going out. When I chose any Rock Fish for area 23 today the app didn't show any retention info. Only shows closure for Pacific Rim National Park. I released several fish because of this, only to find out when I got home that DFO website shows rock fish are open.
