App takes forever to update regulations and most of the time always fails to download them. Also if your phone auto locks during the long wait time to download updated regs it makes me restart downloading them again.
App will not sync. I can’t deep dive into any of the fishings area shown within the Marine Areas. It will only show the first one by alphabetical order

The Washington State Department of Fish and Wildlife is excited to announce a new Sport Fishing Regulations Mobile Application for Washington State! A new Sport Fishing Regulations Mobile Application for Washington State. To make these regulations easier to understand, Washington Department of Fish & Wildlife developed the Fish Washington mobile app. In a single weekend, you can dig for clams, troll for salmon, drop a pot for Dungeness crab, fly fish for steelhead, trout or bass, jig for halibut or rockfish, and bait fish for catfish, tuna, lingcod or sturgeon. Washington State offers anglers some of the most diverse fishing opportunities available anywhere in the world. Maintaining this variety of fishing opportunities necessitates correspondingly diverse―and sometimes complex―fishing regulations. Search for your favorite fishing spot and see the regulations; for today and for that upcoming trip. Share your experience or favorite fishing spot with friends and family. Tap on a body of water to see what you can fish for and retain, gear restrictions (if any), etc. Get real-time notifications about changes to regulations, emergency rules, etc. Advertiser content delivery is determined by user online profiles.
