  • I had a great mixed day fishing for Bass, Pollack and Ling all in the same session just by switching up the methods and the marks according to what the conditions were doing. Lures and baits both accounted for fish, I show and explain my methods and the reasons. I hope you enjoy the video.
    Here are links to some of the tackle I use in these videos -
    Penn Conflict Inshore 40g - bit.ly/3VPGyJM
    C&R Mutsu Circle Hook 2/0-6/0 - bit.ly/43Uq2ui
    Penn Regiment III Solid Carbon 12-20 - bit.ly/3xjY2DW
    Seatech Float 165g - bit.ly/3PXcCYG
    Sabikis - bit.ly/3TOkzAA
    Flouro - Trilene - bit.ly/3inoAJb
    I have been asked to provide a link to the lures I was using. I hope this helps.

    I enjoy your videos so much, I’ve tried watching a few different youtubers doing what you do but it seems they need to lay off the caffeine a little...lol. I’m in no way disrespecting them I just find the way you do things so laid back yet very informative and your respect for the ocean and all it’s beautiful creatures is simply the best. You flip the rocks back over, put things you show us back and cover them up to protect them. The others just seem to drop them or don’t have the love and respect as you do. Keep up the fabulous videos and stay safe

    • @TheFishLocker
      @TheFishLocker  4 роки тому +3

      - Thank you very much, I am glad you feel that way and share our philosophy on respecting the natural world around us. Yes I have also watched a few other channels and it is clear they are simply copying what they see others doing in the hope of views. It is a shame really. There is some great content out there, but there are also some others that just want to be youtube famous. I hope you and your family are well and stay safe. :)

    Finally got round to watching this all the way through, I must say you work hard for these fish John, the effort you put into these vids shines through, we love eating fish in my house especially ling but I don't catch that many to make it a regular feature for supper!! I think you lead a lifestyle many of us aspire to, who gets to see dolphins & catch fish like that too often? Thanks for letting us into your world, all the best mate!

    John Fishlocker - Wikipedia .. Bass Master champ occasionally spiked / willing to leave a hot spot most would dream of to pursue target species, when catching beyond PB's for the vast majority, on repeat...and then again, and on repeat again..oh and then again. Often seen under dolphin escort just cos thats how John FL roles..Any other You-tube fishing channels wanting to do 'colab's' will likely need to run it past the dolphins. Man tends to inform to the next level and as humble as a man describing making beans on toast/ delivers subtle masterclass every time. Zero time wasted for viewer. You will be surprised he didn't catch the chopper in this vid! Onwards and upwards guaranteed. Nice one mate again, another ridiculous vid', real feast this one and an early Christmas present!! Happy Christmas to you and the fam.

    Before I started following you, I never would have guessed how vibrant the wildlife is in your area, particularly underwater. I like your explanation about how circle hooks work, too. Almost wish to have the fish headed away from you when that line tightens and pulls the point into the corner of the mouth. As you would say, another cracking video (too bad crack means something else in America😒).

    • @TheFishLocker
      @TheFishLocker  3 роки тому

      - Haha. Crack here when it’s the good meaning is often spelled Craic. 😉 As is “You know that Corbfisher guy?” “Yeah, he’s good craic 👍🏻” haha. Circles are great if you can fish them properly - exactly as you describe; with the fish heading away from you. 😊👍🏻

Not a course fisherman and prefer active fishing with lures and baits. Will begin fishing off Kent coast near me. I'll definitely be catching to eat as it makes me feel better than supporting overfishing and the big factory ships. Haven't seen yet as only started your videos but where in the country do you head out from? Also, any groups, sites or other channels you recommend someone checking out? Keep it up!
