Cargill Receiver

[John Jarosz]

As most of you know we ended up with two receivers that were MIA, one near the Cargill Plant the other off the Bell Slip. Three of us sat in Jim Kinner's boat this a.m. & we went fishing for missing receivers. Here's the Cargill receiver. There was still a red light blinking in the viewing window, so this thing that had been in the water since spring 2013 was still working when pulled out & still taking data. That's a year and a half of fish movement last year, throughout the winter & thru this year & right into September. It took a lickin' but kept on tickin'

All thanks go out to Jim Kinner & his sidekick Davey Jones. Jim sends me a text one day & asks, "Hey John, you want to try tomorrow?". If I had to decide by myself, there's no way I would have done it because NW winds were forecast for that day. I hate NW winds. There's not one good thing that I've ever happened to me in a NW wind. But, since Jim was willing to try, I'm thinking "Who am I to say "No"?" So we went in Jim's boat. They ran their program, followed the anchor line down & the rest is history. I can't thank them enough. They did it all & I just went along for the ride.
