A massive thank you to the lads onboard for allowing me to join them. If anyone is local to Falmouth and enjoys fresh shellfish be sure to check out Jamie’s shop linked in the video description. 👍🏻🦀🦞
I've said before how much I enjoy the behind scenes of the Commercial Fishermen over there. Just incredible! So little goes to waste! Thank you John and the Crew for taking us along, it was interesting!!! Wishing all of you a wonderful week!
I really appreciate the learning experience. It is to ride with you in your fishing experiences. You don't take an awful lap for granted in the knowledge of your audience and so it has to appeal across-the-board to savvy as well as not so savvy
Wel John anther great video giving us an insight to the small commercial fishermen,. Thanks to the Crew of the Emily K for welcoming us on-board their vessel,and your job is not easy,so thankyou. John as always so informative and diversive,thankyou,hope all the family are well,and in the words of that great sea scrounger....I'll see you on the next one!!😂😂😂😂
That was totally amazing watching the pros do that, great crew aswell, that was a really enjoyable watch, thanks to all three of you for sharing that with us all, awesome content John
Thanks John these working boat videos have been eye opening and educational. It was good to say hello at the fundraiser and good to meet someone with a decent handshake.
Great video as always mate. Mylor is such a nice place. I used to cycle from Falmouth up to the Pandora and stop off at Mylor on the way back. Miss the place so much.
Great day out Jon. As usual a fantastic atmosphere on the boat. I know what you mean about the smell of the pots, you get used to it. The harbour in Amble is also used for the market. 👍👍
Another great informative and entertaining video, i just relised that in previous vids I had negleced to thank the crews you have visited, I do so now and retrospectively to previous hosts. The spider crabs do apparently move along together and even climb over the newly molted soft shelled amoungst them to protect them from preditors at a vulnearable time!
Fantastic video John and fair play to Jamie and Ryan for taking you out. Similarities to what you do, apart from hauling the pots of course!!! Very interesting none the less. Regards to the crew of the Emily K and thank you yet again for another informative video. Best wishes-John from EK.
@@TheFishLocker Yeh, I figured you'd say no to that one John. It must be so important to those boys how much they get for their haul. Time you pay for fuel, maintenance of the boat and their gear and that's before they even consider a wage. Thanks again John.
I love to watch these kind of videos as I love to learn more about the commercial side of fishing too!! Huge ty to the crew for allowing u to join them n video there operation xxxx
@@TheFishLocker I’ll look forward to the video… would the person that empties the pods wear a GoPro on his chest so that we could get a much closer look into that part of bringing the pods in… We got to get a closer look at pods being stacked n sent bac out again n also baiting them as they go… it was just missing a closer look into that part of it… I promise I’m not complaining (I’m just a nosey pain in the rear lmao) I just thought I’d ask if that would b possible on ya next trip out wit them xxxx
@@TheFishLocker ahhh Okies… ya must think I’m really weird n nosey to want to see that lol… I’m just really intrigued by the whole process n love to learn about each n every step that’s involved lolol xxxx
John..if given the chance,would you go out on one of the King Crab boats in Alaska,featured on "Deadliest Catch"?In my younger days yes! Now....no way! You?
Great video John and thanks for providing the insight. I think we should remember that that day was prettty well flat calm and you have given me an enhanced respect for when these fellas have to go out in rough weather and still do the same job in such tight conditions. I'll eat my next lobster (it doesn't happen very often) more slowly and spare a thought for our fisherfolk whilst I do so!!
I'm really enjoying your trips out with commercial fishermen. It is really important that we know where our food comes from and that we support our local fishermen. Keep the videos coming
John, EXCELLENT video! Really liked the different camera angles, the stacking of the pots and ropes, and you could see that they use "work smarter, not harder" with that gate. With the first few out, the rest followed, cool! With clear skies and calm water, a beautiful day for sure. My thanks to the captain and mate for allowing you and us to join them.
Really enjoying the day in the life of. Another showing of how adaptable the fish locker is. I did like the simple hauling set up, simple but very effective and can see why a commercial fisher would have one. Great video 👍
What a great example of what really happens on a commercial vessel, instead of the over-dramatic, edited for content Discovery crap. Are the size requirements different for commercial boats vs. recreational fishermen?
Another great production pops out of the "Locker". Thanks for all this great content John. Hope you are all well including Spargo who is the best chef with the least recognition and should be praised for what he shows us for free. All the very best to you all Gary and Sheree in land locked worcestershire.
Another good days graft out at sea John, I bet anyone new to the job has to learn fast and stay concentrated because one mistake and on a rough day you could be in trouble. Full respect to these guys. Top man John Jason
LOVING those overhead views! Octo snared @ 11:20 had me, & other Hawaii viewers, SALIVATING over their screens! Looks to be, 3-5#(?). Having grown up in/around Hawaiian waters, Still cannot get over myriad of ocean creatures taking residence in/around sea bed....A-L-O-H-A from Hawaii
That was a very interesting trip you took us all on there. I remember in the old days when there would be fishmongers in more or less all costal towns but nowadays it is almost impossible to find fresh fish straight out of the sea, unless you go and catch it yourself. I suppose it all goes to the big auctions nowadays, so maybe that is a video you might do in the future?
@@TheFishLocker A video showing what happens between the fish are caught and they become for sale to the public was what I was thinking. Many fishing towns don't have fishmongers anymore so fresh fish is scarce and I suppose the supermarket version means a long delay and less fresh fish?
These videos have been fantastic - really enjoyed them. Hard working, risk taking lads and ladies who still put the best food available on the table despite hard economic conditions and a government determined to destroy business, lives AND the very water they work in. Fantastic
@@TheFishLocker yeah about to start a 48 day turn offshore of Aberdeen on a drilling rig! But we go anywhere and everywhere - I narrowly avoided Nigeria
They work so hard, even with the automation it’s a tough job, I can’t imagine what a rainy squally day must be like. I will appreciate my seafood more from now on.
Love these commercial fishing videos that show that there is more to fishing then big trawlers😀How far from shore do you have to be when you fish commercially and are you,as a hobby fisherman allowed to fish in the same waters as they are?Great crew on the boat. Would love to see a video when the weather is bad haha😀💛
Great video and so nice of you to help out a local fisherman with free labor and exposure for his business. I know I spelled labour wrong but I'm American. hahaha
Haha. Do not worry about it mate. I hope that people find these commercial videos not only interesting but educational. Showcasing how some commercial fishing can be targeted and sustainable.
Good morning John, sorry to be a pain but is there any chance you could do a video about your video and tips of shooting when you have time, regards Tel G
A massive thank you to the lads onboard for allowing me to join them. If anyone is local to Falmouth and enjoys fresh shellfish be sure to check out Jamie’s shop linked in the video description. 👍🏻🦀🦞
Love it when you go out with the hard-working lads. It really makes me appreciate my food on the table.
Me too mate. I hope it sheds some light on a world that few people get to experience.
Man these videos are always a treat!
I always enjoy them too. 👍🏻🦀
I've said before how much I enjoy the behind scenes of the Commercial Fishermen over there. Just incredible! So little goes to waste! Thank you John and the Crew for taking us along, it was interesting!!! Wishing all of you a wonderful week!

Thank you very much. I had a great time with the lads. Real pleasure to spend the day with them.
That was pretty impressive. they work like a well oiled machine.
You will find most commercial boats are like this. Hard work and great teamwork.
Thank you all for showing us. I really enjoyed it.
It is my pleasure.
This is one of your best videos yet .
Thank you Bob.
Thank you John for another great video. Thanks to The Emily K for allowing you to "krewe along"
I had a great day with the lads. A real pleasure to spend the day with. 😊🦀🦞
Very enjoyable to watch. I was thinking as I was watching it, that it would be neat to see how the pots are made sometime.
I have a video on the channel already teach people how to make one from scratch.
Great Sunday night entertainment, excellent video and very interesting. Just shows what hard work it takes to give us crab.
They put some serious graft in don’t they mate.
Thoroughly enjoyed the video John, great nights viewing. Thanks for your efforts in entertaining us, so appreciate it. 👍
I hope folks find these videos interesting and educational mate. 🦀👍🏻
Thanks John these working boat videos have been eye opening and educational. It was good to say hello at the fundraiser and good to meet someone with a decent handshake.
Haha. You can tell a fair deal about a man by their handshake. Usually mine smells like fish. 😬
Very Refreshing watching Mr Fish.
No fair really He's having a Great Time Good Luck to Him.
Love it.
I really did have a great day. Thoroughly enjoyed spending time with these lads. 😊🦀
Great video as always mate. Mylor is such a nice place. I used to cycle from Falmouth up to the Pandora and stop off at Mylor on the way back. Miss the place so much.
Lovely spot isn’t it. 😊👍🏻
easy life when its flat calm :) a great way to earn a living. cheers John, Jamie and Ryan.
Haha. Aye when it’s flat it’s lovely.
Fascinating seeing the different techniques different areas use.
I think so too.
what a cracking Video just a treat to watch, many thanks John
My pleasure mate, glad you enjoyed the video.
My friend I enjoy hard work I can sit and watch you boys work all day. Blessings to you and your's

John..if given the chance,would you go out on one of the King Crab boats in Alaska,featured on "Deadliest Catch"?In my younger days yes! Now....no way! You?
Haha. Yes. I would enjoy that a lot.
They get some lovely clean crab on the south coast. Whoever thought of the roller system made a lot of fishermans back pain go away.
Agreed.
Thank you for that it was quite an inside view of what goes on to get their catch in.
Interesting view of a commercial crab fisherman on a very pleasant day. No doubt other days are rainy and stormy with less productive days.
Same productivity just harder working conditions.
Great video John and thanks for providing the insight.
I think we should remember that that day was prettty well flat calm and you have given me an enhanced respect for when these fellas have to go out in rough weather and still do the same job in such tight conditions.
I'll eat my next lobster (it doesn't happen very often) more slowly and spare a thought for our fisherfolk whilst I do so!!
Good on you for recognising that fact. Enjoy that lobster. 😉🦞
Another great insight to the industry John. Thank you.
My pleasure mate.
I really enjoyed the trap launching sequence...such a honed skill lining all that up!...6:29.
I find it really therapeutic watching them all go out. 😊
One more nice video. thank you John.
My pleasure John.
Very interesting video. Love to see the small guys get their dues!
The boats and crews I choose to showcase as chosen for just those reasons. Efficient, sustainable and conservation minded.

It is the cool and oxygen rich waters around the U.K. that supports such rich seaweeds. These are the foundations for that rich myriad.
Done a bit of beam trawling, but I'm hopefully getting on a potting boat soon.
Good luck. 👍🏻🦀
