Lake Search
Is it me or is there a problem in the lake search.
State Selected: Washington
Letter of the alphabet I chose was M ..... looking for Martha it went MIA. Same thing when I selected G.... seemed like the list of Washington lakes with G was low. B had a boat load of lakes but from that point on the list seemed off (to me).
Otherwise great job getting the site back up again.

RE:Lake Search
I'm not seeing that problem on my end... were you searching from this page?

RE:Lake Search
Now it appears to work right. Kind of like taking the car to the mechanic to have a problem looked at and when the mechanic sees the car the problem goes away.
When I did it last night I only something like 5 lakes in total for all of Washington in the letter M. And the same with several other letters after the C.

RE:Lake Search
Interesting. California lakes are all in the system but that state is currently disabled. THanks for noticing and pointing it out.
As for the # of lakes with that name, unless you're fishing out of state you should always have the state dropdown set to WA.

The only thing I see 4 of is the emails I get whenever someone replies to this thread!
BTW, I'm working on fixing that ASAP.

RE:Lake Search
When I use the link that was posted on this page it works fine... when I use the one lake page.... at least I get the error on my prior post. I'm going to try another computer and browser and see what happens. It could be my end for all intents.
Before I try another computer I'm informing you that I get the same search result using IE8 and Mozilla Firefox 4.0... as if that should really matter.

RE:Lake Search
That is just the fishing reports, not the lake info page.
