Asking for Feedback....

[Ben Gillispie]

Hi guys and gals, 

First off, I just want to thank you for all of the unbelievable feedback you've given me as I've worked on Angler Spy...something that I hope will always have a stamp of authentic, Ozarks - White River innovation. 

I've been weighing a lot of options lately. I am going to pursue focusing solely on temperatures as I expand. They are affordable for me to accomplish without outside investment, and they are quantifiable - meaning they are numbers that can be graphed and displayed cheaply and easily. I will add clarity cams in areas where I am able to get sponsorship. The camera aspect is so much more involved and requires a dependable partner, especially in areas where I don't live (i.e. everywhere except Table Rock)

In fact, I'm heading to LOZ tomorrow to install temps-only units. 

My big questions is: would you be interested in getting daily/weekly texts that informed you of water temperatures? 

This would mean you wouldn't have to login, download any app, or really do anything at all...simply open a text message in the morning and see water temps for all reporting units? 

Over time, we'd allow for subscribing to certain lakes, certain units, etc., but initially we'd just text you something like:

Indian Point Marina: 78 degrees @ 1' , 76 degrees @ 10' etc etc etc 

 

PLEASE let me know if you would subscribe to something like this. Of course, you'd be able to opt out at any time if you wished to no longer receive these updates.

Sounds like a good deal to me.  I only get down there twice a year if I'm lucky,  but I would think that the regulars could benefit.

Daryk, thanks for the feedback. 

Where are you located? I'd like to try and get you a temperature sensor or two at a lake you fish more frequently. Let me know if there is a lake you fish frequently and I'll start some research.

Ben, you know I will subscribe. Water temps are valuable.

I would definitely sign up. And if you do this weekly, may the weekly temp change included - with a +2 to indicate overall increase of 2 degrees. Just a thought.

Ben, count me in, thanks!

I am in the St Louis area.  No really steady locations.  Just wherever I feel that day.

Yes, Ben, I'd like the daily text messages. That's a nice feature.

For what I do, knowing if there is a thermocline and at what depth makes a huge difference. I'm in for text.
