Justice markets Stren Fishing Line, and Rodríguez is one of his field testers. Rodríguez was driven by snook fanaticism, and by the tight schedule of the visiting Justice, who lives in High Point, N.C. 20, when blustery winds spun off from Hurricane Isidore were roiling South Florida's near-shore waters, Rodríguez hunted snook in Miami-Dade's inlets, bridges and canals with Justice and a companion. He can find snook in any situation when some guides are limited to one application.''Įven under less-than-ideal fishing conditions, Rodríguez is persistent. ''I saw that he could fish,'' Justice said of Rodríguez. Now the Miami Springs dog trainer/furniture installer runs night snook trips on an 18-foot Pro Sport skiff. He encouraged Rodríguez to become a fishing guide, and earlier this year, Rodríguez followed his mentor's advice. Justice, a guru with a supercomputer-like memory for when and where snook will strike, recognized the same qualities in his friend. Rodríguez, a 35-year-old Cuban-born dog trainer given to rapid-fire speech, and Justice, a 41-year-old laconic Miami Anglo in charge of product development for a fishing-line company, have forged an enduring Mutt-and-Jeff-like friendship. In situ antennae, like those the project team built, can detect and record tag codes 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.BY SUSAN COCKING, Miami Herald, Rodríguez met his mentor, Dave Justice, nearly 18 years ago as they fished for snook on Miami's Venetian Causeway. PIT tags (passive integrated transponders) are an electric tag that can be detected and decoded by either a hand-held PIT tag reader or by an in situ antenna. When the field stations were in place and dates set, the fish were PIT tagged. Once delivered, the components were assembled to create solar powered antenna stations. Days in the field consisted of donning wet suits, pulling supply boats over oyster beds and walking them through swamps and mangrove tunnels, passing the gear and parts out of the water and over the jutting mangrove roots. Emily also participated in the actual construction of the sensor/transmitter stations deployed in the field. The first part of the process involved the preliminary design of the operating elements of the experiment and ordering all of the tools, structural materials, batteries, solar panels, transmitters and tagging equipment, finalizing the design and dates for deployment and pre-fabricating all of the antennas and parts we would need in the field. Setting up the platform for the solar panel.
