Fortnite Fishing Zone Not Working

What Type of Bug are you experiencing?

Devices

Summary

No matter what I do, the fishing zone device seems to not work at all. I’ve tried using BR loot pool, custom loot pool with loaded arrays, etc. Even placing through a normal session and not UEFN yields nothing. The fishing zone cosmetically appears, but the volume seems to be doing nothing in terms of fishing up actual loot from the given pool.

Steps to Reproduce

Place water, ocean or otherwise
Place a fishing zone
Set to infinite uses, or any amount really
Try to fish out proper loot

Expected Result

I would hope to receive the loot that I set in the settings for the fishing zone, or at least BR fishing zone loot when set to the BR setting.

Observed Result

I am only receiving small fry, ammo, and the like. Not fishing zone loot or predefined loot from myself.

Platform(s)

UEFN, Fortnite Creative for PC

Same issue here, hoping this will get fixed soon.
My island is basically broken because of it and its impossible for me to release it like this.
This needs to be fixed asap.
