Jensen Drilling Company background
John Jensen, Principal
and Inventor

In 1966, a need arose for thousands of feet for horizontal drains in large slide areas along the newly constructed freeways throughout the United States of America. The existing drilling equipment was slow and made the cost-per-foot-drilled expensive.

At Jensen Drilling, we developed drilling equipment on crawler tractors so that drilling could be accomplished in rough terrain and where access was nearly impossible. This equipment could use longer lengths of drill pipe making it 5 times faster than the old method, thus reducing the cost per foot. The cost per foot price reduction made many more projects feasible.

The crisis at Three Mile Island Nuclear Plant created the need for a computerized drilling rig. We designed and manufactured the necessary equipment to remove the reactor cores and stainless plate underlying the reactor.

In 2001, my grandson, Randy Coryell, and I designed (and are presently manufacturing) the JCA Circle Burning Attachment used for cutting circular holes in steel plate, pipe, etc. You get a perfect fit every time instead of struggling to correct a free-hand effort.

But, business is business and when weekends come it's time to go fishing!

We use downriggers on the boat which has a large weight on the cable. A release is fastened to the weight, the fishing lure, and bait attached to the fish pole line are placed in the release and lowered down to the fishing depth desired. When a fish has struck, the release lets go and you reel the fish in. Now the fun begins.

It is necessary to reel up the downrigger weight (80 to 100 ft sometimes) every time in order to attach the lure and bait to the release. I thought to myself, "There has got to be a better way using downriggers for fishing!"

After making and trying many different prototypes of the Dolfin Carriers we finally came up with the perfect product.

The landing plate has a fin which keeps it in the right position when fish have struck and the Dolfin Carrier descends down to it for a landing. Also, the "Dolfin Carrier" is engineered so that the flow of water under the tail section is captured tipping the Dolfin Carrier forward and down, creating a slight friction on the downrigger cable, thus making its descent slower. In addition the Dolfin Carrier has a fin (part of the tail) which keeps it in line with the landing plate.

The Dolfin Carrier makes downrigger fishing fun and easy and that's what we like.
