Terrific day Joe!  At times, I have tried posting a report and it did not go through.  I think the system "times out" after so many minutes.  I always copy text before hitting submit.  Hope this helps.

I've had the same thing happen to me. I'm never as creative on the second report as I'm on the original.  I too have learned to copy the text just for insurance.

Sorry the system was giving you trouble and sorry others have had similar experiences. We have had lots of changes with our site over the past 90 days as we have added many new features. One of those features is the ability to write a fishing report linked directly to the harvest report. Most of our members harvest fish AND post their counts on lakes where we ask you to harvest and we are so grateful for this. However, only about 15% of our members post fishing reports. Since fishing reports are crucial to the health of the club, we have now paired the fishing report along with the harvest report in an attempt to get more fishing reports. 

We realize that some of you have had issues when writing a fishing report. The system was timing out after 20 minutes and some reports seem to have just disappeared. HOW FRUSTRATING!!!. We feel like we have rectified those issues. Since the upgrade this is the first report I have heard of where something went wrong. Not sure why the system did not accept it? We have had over 150 reports since the upgrade without an issue. Hopefully this is isolated case.

Thanks for your patience.

I hope you're right about problems having been corrected, Steve. I've taken to writing and editing my reports in Word and then pasting it into the PWF site, and have had no problem doing it that way. Thanks again for all the hard work you and your team do for us.
