Hi Ken

Did you try to do it via location search, detect location or by selecting it on the map?
What happens when you try?

I have not tried on the map. All other efforts are futile.

it works when I try.
I just typed in Rockport in the search and then selected Rockport, CA from the result list.
Is that how you tried to do it?

I will try again. Do you think that Rockport, Ca means Canada or California?

The Ca means Canada in this case. Otherwise it will show US on the location search.

Thank you, but I am still having difficulty getting the same results that you are getting. My searches return "no results". Please point me in the right direction as to where you are initiating your search.

I only typed Rockport in the search field, nothing else.
What did you type in?

Sorry to be such a PITA, but I typed in Rockport, Ontario, Canada. I will try Rockport, only this time.

ok - Rockport should work. The location search is not advanced enough yet to understand region and country names.
I'll do some work on it so it can also understand more complex queries.

There are two Rockport CA. One is Pecks Point, Nova Scotia and it does not say where the other one is. The fishing reports appear to be both the same though.

I think they are both the same, just perhaps a different suburb.
It wont affect the fishing times predictions. I see if I can return more details in the search results.

Thank you. I appreciate your efforts. Nova Scotia is a long way from Ontario where I live.

I noticed the two results for CA are in two different time zones.
The first result is in timezone America/Moncton
And the second result is timezone America/Toronto

In your case it might be better if you select your location on the map to get it exactly where you are.
