Boy that video brought back many memories of steaming out at night...go 70 miles offshore and arrive at your fishing spot at first light. Look at the bottom machine and see your target species under the boat. Catch 1,000 pounds of them (the commercial limit) and then go catch other species and then head home after 3 days. Don't worry folks...the fish we caught are extremely sustainable and have been growing..not dwindling in numbers for the last 40 years due to government regulations. And all fish were caught on rod and reel. Great video my friend. Til next time...Cheers.
Blown away....the fishing as always brilliant but your knowledge, presenting, explaining, is top notch and for a novice angler like me easy to understand cheers marra 😃👍
As with the rest of our videos. I hope it is the depth of actual knowledge that sets our content aside from others who try to do what we do. I am glad you have found the videos helpful.
You are so right about it not getting better than being on the water with the sun coming up. You are so blessed. One of my greatest memories of my father is turning around as we headed out on Lake Erie here in Canada to go pickerel fishing and seeing the smile on his face as the sun was rising. His ball cap turned backward so it did not fly off and his pride showing to be out with his grown daughter who still wanted to fish with him. I miss him !! Your son will blessed with these memories too. Thank you for everything you teach. I love learning about the different species of fish, fishing methods , conservation and your respect for wildlife. I look forward to all your videos!
Hi John, At last i have got myself in a hgv job after 18 months of ill health with the prostate. I am loving it even though it's a 60 hour week. I already feel healthier fitter and stronger. I have really pushed the boat out this year to get a job like this and it's working. Hard work seems to be pushing my prostate issues to the side. i,m too busy to even notice the problem. Thanks John, Stevie in Fife.
@@TheFishLocker Thanks so much John given you have so many subscribers. That is really remarkable that you read my comment and replied. Much love to all your family. Stevie in Fife.
@@stevied8855 dear sir I would like to give you a heads up that stinging nettle tea has been shown to be beneficial for prostate you can pick them yourself and make tea or buy tea bags give it a go I use it for hay-fever and helps me a lot I hope it does you All the best Kieran 👍
British record for a poor cod.... What I like about your vids is that you're always cheerful, always optimistic and there are no other distractions around...just a great fisherman!
With all that,s going on in the world today you are in the wright place doing what you like doing sea fishing Being out at sea your mind is on what you are doing and nothing else Good on you mr fish locker ha ha paul
I learned a while back that watching the news and paying attention to anything that I cannot see with my own eyes does you no good. Keep things simple, take pleasure in the small things in life.
The beauty of watching your videos is the level of enthusiasm you convey especially spotting the boar fish floating and taking the time to catch it to show us! 👍👍
@@TheFishLocker John - without getting into location specifics, how long in your experience, does it generally take a new wreck to become productive for the type of fishing you prefer, months, years, etc.? I'm making assumptions that a wreck has to lay in position long enough to acquire marine growth to attract the smaller bait type fish, which in turn gathers the larger predators.
I'm just glad you show all sides of fishing. It's not all sunshine and rainbows, and you don't hide the disappointments to give people unrealistic expectations. Nice catch on that Ling!
One minute into the show and I gave you a thumbs up. I love your attitude and the useful information you put out! Being from mid USA and 74 I will never get the pleasure of fishing off the UK shores. Thank you for taking us along.
Hello again and greetings from Kenmare in County Kerry, south west Ireland. Just touching base to say that I'm still enjoying the best, most informative fishing videos online.Keep up the great job and tight lines.
@@davidosullivan6351 I'm in Kenmare, so you generally have to travel down the bay a fair bit to get into anything worthwhile. But it's a great spot to get out in the boat.
We have put a lot of ourselves into this channel and our videos because we truly felt and hoped that they may help folks out in some way. Even if it was just to provide a positive distraction during difficult times. If the videos have helped anyone, then I feel they have been worth making. 💙
I started watching these for writing research. I still do, but they are just so dang relaxing, plus I've seen so many of these videos that it feels like I'm watching a friend's videos.
@@TheFishLocker for me and I suppose many others it's just waiting on your favourite TV program coming on. You forget then something triggers and it's boom there it is
Tea in a favourite mug: ✅ Chocolate biscuits at the ready: ✅ Half an hour peace and quiet: ✅ Time to fire up The Fish Locker. Great video as ever. (Probably)
Really enjoyed that , kept it real it's not all sunshine and roses sometimes you put the hard yards in for little return! Nice ling though to soften the blow . Needed my fish locker fix , not been out for over a month, full time working on the van , which by the way I've followed your route doing individual panels for access later ! Thanks for the vid John
That’s life mate. Some trips are easy, some trips are hard work. This one was hard work. Soon be summer time and we’ll be enjoying the sun in shorts and t-shirts. 😉👍🏻
Always a pleasure watching your videos. You not only look like Stevie G, but you are also just as hard! You carried on fishing after those nasty cuts. Hats off to you mate.
Well I 'take my hat off' to you John for venturing out that far on your own to fish the big wreck. You continue to amaze with your knowledge of how to approach your fishing & I am sure your advice & knowledge will be used by other fishermen, experienced or 'learners'. Thanks for sharing yet another great video. Cheers, Don from South Aust.
Tough day, John, nice ling though. You'll have to go back in better conditions to winkle out that wily old conger. Thanks for the video, always a good watch.
Good to see your enthusiasm, again, where most of us would have packed up. The excitement over the boarfish got me giggling as I could relate to a similar situation when I've seen something new come out of the water, here or abroad. Regardless of size. Nice one John, not the ideal outcome but a great experience and it's exactly that sort of experience that makes me keep going back for more. 👍
It pleases me deeply that we are able to create a positive, well wishing and like minded community. On the flip side over the last 3 years we have experienced some horrendous jealousy attacks, online abuse, trolling and venom like I hope no one ever has to experience.
Another nice one, I was at Stithians over the Christmas, had thoughts about looking you up but you were going nowhere in that weather. AIS so useful, I cross occasionally from Nice to Corsica, Elba etc, busy bit of water, compliments Radar especially at night, nice to know the coastguard can watch you also with ident etc. Keep em coming, thanks.
Well John, a daring trip at distance solo. You certainly have to know your capabilities, especially anchoring up at those depths, but you took it all in your stride. You are certainly capable and understand the sea which shows in your confidence. All in all, a great watch and very educational. Tight lines pal.
I really enjoyed this trip thank you for taking us with you. I must say I was a little worried now far you went but reminded myself you had posted this video therefore must have made it back ok !!!!
Love the videos!! Really love when you have the family foraging and the father in-law cooking! Between your amazing catches and his amazing cooking, I’m constantly hungry for seafood!! Cheers!
You have so much knowledge. Thank you for sharing how wreck fishing happens and how the fish act and how smart some of them are. We have a ling on the table and some other fishes for food or bait for this episode. It's great to watch and I'm working on my filleting technique at home. I'm a little less scared of fish now (still scared for some species, but Ling aren't scary now), but watching the boat, the anchor information from your crab pot videos, and how you act smartly with the weather, it's is very nice to see one thinks through and how valuable these skills are. Thanks again Uncle John. Take care, stay safe. Be warm. This was a nice episode, I think, got to study how the tides and wind treat boats. Got to study the clouds above you to look at where they move. Thank you for sharing your time with us. I really do appreciate the time you spend teaching.
I am really pleased to see that the videos are proving helpful and informative for you. I cover everything that I consider and that you should need to do what I do in the videos. I might not cover it in every one. But if you watch enough of them it will be in there somewhere. 😉👍🏻🎣
I’ve got this feeling you enjoy your fishing like I do ,,just waiting for a change in the weather to get out and do a bit on the boat ,like you John if the conditions are good wee go , mackerel are always a good bait especially when fresh and a bonus is when you catch your target fish ,,, anyway getting envious of you now good luck
Even the mighty fishlocker can miss a bit ! Conditions looked tough ! Good to know your only human. Great video John. Good to see you after those monsters again. “Christ on a bike” was my favourite.
Haha. Fishing out at this distance and depth in those conditions I don’t see this as being a failure. Just a learning experience. I know there’s some big fish down there, I will be back for them!!! 🤣🎣
From Africa! Really enjoyed watching you do the same things as I do in a different ocean and with different fish! I fish often in 40 to 50 meters of water. THAT was enough for me! 100 m plus is pretty amazing. We use half kilogram weights to get down. But your careful planning of tides and current taught me something important.
You have captured it perfectly. If tried to fish these wrecks on strong tides it would be nearly impossible. I would need at least 1kg of lead if not more. On small tides I fish at anchor, when the tides are running I fish on the drift. 😉🎣
I don't have to be an angler to appreciate the beauty and peace you get out at sea, and those porpoises looked like they were having a blast sporting about in your wake and racing your boat! 😊 And another lovely ling to bring home to Spargo, too!
Good trip John, educational to regarding the fog and how careful you have to be, shame about the conger but the ling makes up for it, thanks for showing everyone the trip I really enjoyed it.👍🏻
First for me were the Boarfish, Never seen one before, what a colourful little fish, then one huge Ling for the table, Spargo's kitchen I hope! Brilliant session, shame the weather turned. Thanks for posting hope your poor cod was at least classed as a specimen fish.
New year's eve I suffered a massive heart attac and have been off my feet ever since. Don't know yet if I will get back outside again, but rewatching your exploits fishing and foraging are helping keep me sane, cheers for show and good luck.
that was a really good one, a boar fish! wow! I always hoped one day that i would find a wreck of them, these wrecks would happen around Dymchurch from rare time to rare time, and they would be alive. Just to see that thing of great beauty and rarity would make more than my day. By repute they take in an aquarium a couple of weeks to feed, but the reward is well... Loved this video.
Sunday evening watching your video, what can be better. Not sure about going out that far in your small boat but you know what your doing. Beautiful ling and a conger waiting for your next trip, can’t be bad. Keep safe Mate.
I liked to fish for Conger and I remember Anglers Mail stories of some of the monsters caught when they first started going out to some of the big wrecks. Divers stories too of Conger grown too big to swim out of wrecks! As always enjoyed the video!
You were up against it from the start, well done for going out so far to try those wrecks. Reel fishing action. Showing all the trials and pitfalls gives free tips to all the other anglers who watch your videos. That is altruism and should be applauded. 👍👍👍👍👍
Keep up the good work I've been out today on my kayak ln new Zealand soft bating I had a great mornings fishing I will try send you the photos 📸 all the best dave
Hi John, hello from USA! I just started enjoying your videos, seeing the UK fishing species and fishing grounds compared to us here at the mid Atlantic area. Plus I enjoy a great deal of freshwater fishing and nice hunting here also. Your seamanship is A+ !!! Please get a radar set, it will turn night into day and fog into clear skies with a bit of practice in clear weather. I’ll subscribe now and look forward to all of your videos
Thank you very much Norman and welcome to our channel. I love learning about the wildlife and methods in different places. A radar set would be good but I just cannot justify the cost for my size of boat.
Just love to watch your videos. You have so much skill and knowledge, and you share it with us with so much enthusiasm. I was particularly interested in seeing you haul up that fantastic Ling. I have only been out on a boat a couple of times, and one of the few fish I have caught was a tiny Ling off the North Norfolk coast. I believe we were on a wreck at the time as well. All the best.
Thank you once again John, for a terrific instructional video. You are an amazing fisherman, probably due to your Navy experience..😄 we sailors have to stick together..stay well..
I hope everyone has survived the bad weather unscathed? Best wishes everyone and take care. 💙🎣
As with you hope everything is well
Do you get mackerel all year round John?
Sunday is complete now :) thank you 😊 🙏
@@ShinyArceusOfficial - We get a summer and a winter fishery. Winter is better imo.

Good trip John, educational to regarding the fog and how careful you have to be, shame about the conger but the ling makes up for it, thanks for showing everyone the trip I really enjoyed it.👍🏻
Yes you really need to be on the ball when it’s foggy. I was frustrated about the conger but that’s fishing isn’t it. 🤷🏻♂️🎣
First for me were the Boarfish, Never seen one before, what a colourful little fish, then one huge Ling for the table, Spargo's kitchen I hope! Brilliant session, shame the weather turned. Thanks for posting hope your poor cod was at least classed as a specimen fish.
Those Boarfish are special aren’t they. I’m annoyed the weather kicked up as that big eel was asking to be caught, the conditions were just too bad.
New year's eve I suffered a massive heart attac and have been off my feet ever since.

Maybe not, but who knows. It may come in handy one day. 😉👍🏻
Thanks John, Looking forward to you catching that Leviathan Conger Eel 😃
Me to!! I’ll be back for him!!
Morning John, happy Sunday!
Happy Sunday mate. 😊👍🏻
I liked to fish for Conger and I remember Anglers Mail stories of some of the monsters caught when they first started going out to some of the big wrecks. Divers stories too of Conger grown too big to swim out of wrecks! As always enjoyed the video!
I have heard that before. Congers getting inside of a boiler wreckage for example and growing too large to exit it. 🤣
Very educational. Well done
Thank you, it is my pleasure. 😊
as always interesting and relaxing some one else doing the work.
Haha. Yeah it’s always more pleasurable watching someone else doing the sweating isn’t it!! 🤣🤣
Another brilliant fishing video john 🙂
Thank you very much. 😊🎣
Woooo! Perfect way to settle down to eat some lunch, watching these videos :D
I hope you enjoyed it. 😊👍🏻
Always do! ^^
What a great video!! 👌🏻
Glad you liked it!!
Another great episode. Such in depth knowledge of foraging and fishing. Keep up the good work.
We shall do our best. 👍🏻
You were up against it from the start, well done for going out so far to try those wrecks. Reel fishing action. Showing all the trials and pitfalls gives free tips to all the other anglers who watch your videos. That is altruism and should be applauded. 👍👍👍👍👍
I just make the videos true to life. The good sessions and he difficult ones. Simple and honest. Take care Hugh and tight lines. 😊
Keep up the good work I've been out today on my kayak ln new Zealand soft bating I had a great mornings fishing I will try send you the photos 📸 all the best dave
Please do. Send them on the Fishlocker instagram or fb page. 😊
I could feel your pain,all that effort, but at least you caught something.Every days a learning day,always next time 🎣🐟
Sometimes things just don’t go your way. It’s all just fishing mate. 😊🤷🏻♂️
Enjoyed the video John, some nice fish and good safety tips, never underestimate the weather particularly at sea.
Glad you enjoyed the video Mark.😊
Thanks for another great video. When I finally save up for my own boat I'll have all the tips I need 👍 hope you get a bit better weather next trip
Good luck for the new boat Andy. 😉👍🏻
Great show keep up the good wor
Thank you David. 😊
And once again a very enjoyable fishing adventure
I am glad you enjoyed joining me.
Thanks again John 👍
No problem 👍
Briliant to see you fishing deep wrecks
👍👍👍😜🦕🦄😁🤞✌
😉👍🏻🎣
Brilliant stuff. Thanks again
Glad you enjoyed it 😊
Hi John, hello from USA! I just started enjoying your videos, seeing the UK fishing species and fishing grounds compared to us here at the mid Atlantic area. Plus I enjoy a great deal of freshwater fishing and nice hunting here also.
Your seamanship is A+ !!!
Please get a radar set, it will turn night into day and fog into clear skies with a bit of practice in clear weather. I’ll subscribe now and look forward to all of your videos
Thank you very much Norman and welcome to our channel. I love learning about the wildlife and methods in different places. A radar set would be good but I just cannot justify the cost for my size of boat.
Just love to watch your videos. You have so much skill and knowledge, and you share it with us with so much enthusiasm. I was particularly interested in seeing you haul up that fantastic Ling. I have only been out on a boat a couple of times, and one of the few fish I have caught was a tiny Ling off the North Norfolk coast. I believe we were on a wreck at the time as well. All the best.
I am really glad to hear that you are enjoying the videos Alan, I am simply sharing what I love doing. 😊
Great Vid Boss! Also love your boar.
Thank you very much sir. 👍🏻
Got me itching to get out. Keep the vids coming. Great work
Just need this wind to drop away a bit and I'll be out again.
Awesome too see you getting the most out of the new boat. Look forward to see what else you get up too on it😉
Roll on the better weather. 😉
Thank you once again John, for a terrific instructional video. You are an amazing fisherman, probably due to your Navy experience..😄 we sailors have to stick together..stay well..
Saltwater in the veins. 💪🏻
