MDWFP Hunting & Fishing

Apps seems great so far, but I would REALLY love it if it had a function to replace the daily use cards you have to fill out before every hunt. Something like that should be easy to make and would be a huge time saver since MDWFP is already converting that info to digit data.

Not sure about the problems that hindered the enforcement of game laws and rules at the upper sardis WMA for the last 5 plus years. There were deer being harvested that were not legal in antler size and hunters harvesting more than bag limit allowed. The last 5 years around the bagley lake i personally have not witnessed the presence of a game warden. Therefore the dear population took a heavy hit. Also the reserve area that were marked with blue markers was opened to hunting think in 2016 season with no posting on any of checking stations. This opening i believe was a mistake for it helped deplete the deer population. The local hunters were the only people i met that new restricted area was legal to hunt.I personally called the office in Jackson and they said they had no knowledge of this opening and advised me not to enter. I hope to not offend any one but always had great luck in this area for years last year you were lucky if you could find a fresh track crossing the sandy roads.

The application did not remember my login information and I was required to reenter it. Then it asked for my hunter safety course information. I do not carry this with me. That is the purpose of using an app. I have hunted many times prior and get the emails to renew my license. This should be saved with fish and wildlife and connected to the app, so I do not need to reenter all the information and look up the hunter safety course again. This is very frustrating and requires a great deal of unnecessary time. The rest of the application seems to work fine.

Love being able to have licenses with me as long as I have my phone, but think it would be better if I could add my boating (boating class) licenses too. So I’d have it all in one. Also- and/or have my spouses licenses on my phone incase they forget their phone. Just suggestions for future..

I think this should have been done years ago!! Awesome job at moving forward (digital) and making my hunting experience more convenient. Sometime I would have to drive the opposite way that I needed to go to turn in my slip after hunting WMA. Good job and more importantly good luck with the progress.
