Shore Fishing in Fuerteventura - Canary Islands - Catching BIG FISH off the rocks | The Fish Locker
Вставка
- Опубліковано 3 жов 2024
- We fish a place over 24 hours on the East coast of Fuertaventura in the Volcanic Canary Islands. My friend and I explore a new place and fish it twice over a 24 hour period. We experiment with different methods and land some real monster fish.
The website from which we ordered our fishing licences was - www.spanishfishinglicence.com
Here are links to some of the tackle we used in this session. I hope it helps.

I have a moray eel as a family pet. The young kiddos think it's the neatest thing, and it's a great opportunity to not only teach them about aquatic animals, but to make them curious about everything else. Your shows do even more to the last point. They are so curious, and you explaining everything the way you do is bar none the best and most wholesome I've seen short of Nat Geo documentaries. You have a true gift
Thank you very much. We are simply sharing what we know and love doing. 😊
This is what always fascinated me about sea fishing.
The unknown. The sheer variety, size and incredible array of species that “might” just be cruising on by and fancy dining at your table.
Excellent video, as per, John. Action, education, and humour. Just like sea fishing, it's what keeps me coming back!!! 😁
Glad you enjoyed the video, the fishing out there certainly has a lot of potential. 😉👍🏻🎣
What a fantastic session!
Some lovely fish there 👍
This is my kind of holiday 😉
Mine too.
I don’t like fishing, but i love watching you like it. Appreciation from 🇨🇦
That really is a compliment about the videos. Thank you. 😊👍🏻
Now my Sunday is complete 🎣
Enjoy. 😊👍🏻
Great Sunday Viewing , Thanks John.
Any time mate.
John we all get excited when we have a big fish on. If you wet yourself, just own it. As you get older it will happen more often. Cheers and thanks for another great video ! 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿🤣🤣🤣
Haha.
Канарские острова - какая красота! Очень интересно! Спасибо за видео!👍👍👍
😊👍🏻
Thanks for the mention john👍 cracking session . I slipped on the rocks at salines once and snapped my rod in half! all down to the excitement of having a big blue hit my lead weight and run as I was retrieving🤦 they are dangerous. I hope you get some more good fish👍
This is why sea anglers are better than those fresh water lot, we're always trying to help each other out.
Credit where its due mate. If I had done my due diligence I would have found more of your videos before I went out there tbh. We will definitely he heading back as we fished it hard for a week and barely scratched the surface.
@The Fish Locker there is soo much diversity when it comes to the marks, species and types of fishing in different areas of the island, I'm still finding new marks and thats after over 40 visits🤦
I'm surprised you managed to find space to fish at Salinas as its always packed when I'm out there. I've given up trying to fish it🤦
I'm glad my videos were of help👍 that's what I do it for. All the best John
@@gsp Be good to see you 2 fishing together in fuerte in the future
Love to see a stingray ! In 1983 I held the junior record for a boat caught stingray ! It was 46 pound 2 ounces from a boat out from west Mersea Essex . I was 13 years old ! Love the channel
Wow. Well done.
More crab pots. Love the crab pot videos.
As soon as the weather at home settles down. 👍🏻🦞🦀
20⁰c... I'll be right there! Thx for yet another good video
It is my pleasure.
Those bream were hilarious! Thank goodness you caught that on camera, or no one would ever believe you!
'MINE! MY FOOD!'
"No, MINE!!"
🤣🤣🤣🐟
Then I slipped flat on my ass!! 🤣
Fab video. Really enjoyed it.
Cheers Richard. 👍🏻😊
The way that stingray just plopped onto the water’s surface and floated away at 30:31 was hilarious
😉👍🏻
Excellent fishing video I loved it !!!! Now that's what I call fishing abroad!!!! Well done John and Tom fantastic
Great fun in the sun!!
Nothing better is there than a good ole screaming run is there and the line buzzing of the reel when you're playing them is there m8 had some nice fish on this one
It’s a feeling that’s hard to beat. 🤣
Fantastic session on the rocks John, them stingers were impressive, a glimpse of the Jurassic period!! amazing creatures. Appreciate your efforts bud 👍🏼👍🏼
My pleasure mate.
Absolutely brilliant that .
Brilliant
Class just fishing away in the feet
That's how to do it . Amazing fishing location
I have that same headlight
One of the best things I ever bought
Brilliant also
Thanks
Glad you enjoyed the video Sean. 😊👍🏻
WOW! Those rays are beautiful! They look so difficult to land and unhook, I'm so glad neither of you slipped and fell, it was almost stressful to watch (especially the night fishing) HAHA! Thanks for the video!
Haha. We did slip and fall a few times. 🤣
Another corker John thank you, greetings from Cyprus. (Short & sweet today)! 🦀🦀🐟🐟😎😎
Hi Jacqui, have a lovely day. 😊💙
Great video mate thanks a lot 😊
Any time bud.
Just incredible, gobsmacked!!!
Great session wasnt it. 😊👍🏻
Slippery rocks? Felt soles boots are your best friend amigo👍 . Loving your stuff
Someone else said that too. 👍🏻😉
Another great fishing adventure.
Thanks Mark.
A great video. I'm out in Playa Blanca, Lanzarote and the fishing marks along the coast here are so accessible for holiday sessions.
I have never fished Lanza, maybe I should. 😉👍🏻
@The Fish Locker I'm sure all the islands reward. Keep up your fantastic videos buddy. Learn so much and enjoy your presentations. 👏
@The Fish Locker also less windy than Corralejo as we're in the lee of the mountains here in Playa. I can see Corralejo from my apt accross the sea.
Thoroughly enjoyed watching your adventures overseas. Well done to the both of you for bringing in some mighty fish. Glad you were all safe, looked like a mark for the experienced. Best wishes to you all, Kev and Co.
Any rock mark is a place that needs to be approached with respect and common sense. 👍🏻
WoW! You two were getting some monsters! Great fishing and great workout, lol. Thanks for letting us tag along! Have a great week!
It is our pleasure Julianne. 😊🎣
Great fishing in an exotic place. What more can a fisherman want. Some awesome catches there John from both of you. All the best to all of you.. Tight lines.
Cheers bud and tight lines. 😊👍🏻
That was so e great fishing, you must be really pleased. Lots of advice as usual. Thank you for sharing
I feel like we had a great session. 😊👍🏻🎣
Cracking holiday then Sting rays are something else well done guys
Cheers mate. 😊👍🏻
@@TheFishLocker have you got a link to that life vest thingymebob 😂 you had clipped to you belt mate to have a look at this bit of kit please?
Greetings from the other side
Do so love when Mr Ray starts ta fly
👍🖖
They are incredible fish aren’t they. 😊👍🏻🎣
Absolutely fantastic John, wife would not let me fish there on holiday, you lucky ------- great as Al ways ,I really enjoy watching your exploration trips.
Maybe next time mate. 👍🏻😊
A master class in how to land, handle and release those massive round stingrays. Always learn something every time I watch one of your videos.
Wouldn’t fancy that mark at night though!
You and your mate are highly competent anglers.
The filming and content were excellent.
Thank you both.
Haha. Thank you very much, though me and Tom are a pair of idiots really. 🤣🤪
Well done to you both for bringing us an amazing video.⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Those rays and bonito were awesome.🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣
You work so well together too.👏👏
All I can say is a huge thank you for sharing your experiences.👍👍
Take care and stay safe.😷🙊
It is my pleasure Ian. 😊👍🏻🎣
Brilliant. Looks amazing there. Thanks for sharing. Tight lines
My pleasure.
Fantastic video John & Tom 🐟🎣🐟🎣
Thanks mate. 👍🏻
Brilliant video. Thank you for sharing
My pleasure John.
I saw where Tom got a cut on his leg the night before. Bummer. It’s so beautiful there. Glad you both had a blast. ❤
He manages to get an injury most times we go fishing. 🤣
"I dont even know how youve done that....but...yeah we done.."🤣🤣🤣
Truth.
Now that is what you call flatfish, thank you for bringing us along with you and your mate, now that was something else, I would love to have seen Jim cook one of those Ray's that would have fed some people.
Haha. He could have fed half the island. 🤣
Well done lads ! There were some cracking fish !! 🏴👍
Thanks Phil. 😊👍🏻🎣
Great to meet you John today at Birmingham very surreal
Glad to meet you too bud.
Cracking session lads, fantastic stingers and those white skate are amazing, like some undersea ghost, lets hope their species makes a come back.
16:43 John Locker casually taking his sting ray for a walk 😂
Haha. I thought that when I was editing it. 🤣
I'm often in lanzarote, never thought about fishing for rays. Can't wait to get back out to catch these beasts!
Get after it mate. Good luck. 👍🏻🎣
@ 33 minutes
Oh shit, dude, you've hooked the moon!!! 😬
🤣
If you ever get a chance to show how you pack for an overseas fishing trip I would really enjoy seeing how it's done. Info on what is allowed on flights and how you ensure your rods are safe would be very interesting. Thanks for all the your videos, they're very entertaining and informative.
All the airlines are different mate and the rules change all the time.z
When I've done it, within the EU anyway it's cheaper to post the rods than put it in excess luggage. Now I've purchased some quality telescopic rods, not the same as your real rods but good enough to throw in your suitcase!
Thanks so much for sharing mate, really enjoyed watching :)
My pleasure Robert.
Mega video once again guys well in
Thank you very much. 😊👍🏻
Great video gents love the fish care and the explaining of the set ups it really is a pleasure to watch best of luck gents 🎣👌
Thank you. I hope the videos help folks out. 😊👍🏻🎣
Another great video as always, keep them coming
We will do our best. 😊👍🏻🎣
Cracking video john, can't beat it 👏
Thanks mate.
That tuna went for the table then, too right n all good eating 😋
😉👍🏻
I've never seen a Bonito before. Thanks for sharing! It really had a pretty colour.
This was an Atlantic Bonito.
Ive surfed the canaries many of times but never fished there what a cracking edit well done 😎👌
Thank you.
Great session John.
Good to see your crushing the barbs 😉
Tight lines. 👍
Best way when fishing catch and release. 👍🏻🎣
Heart was in my mouth when you were handling the Stingray. I used to catch these in NZ and they are no joke. Two mates of mine get hit with the barb and still have the maks to prove it, they are no joke. They can even curl the tail forward. Flip them over before doing anything to them, they go catatonic.
They are surprisingly fast aren’t they.
Cracking video ! Was riveted to it all the way through , Thanks muchly
My pleasure 😊👍🏻
Cracking flick!!
Thank you.
Some real monsters there John. Great video as always.
Thank you Leon.
What a lovely Stingray you caught in the daylight
It was a lovely looking fish wasnt it. 😊👍🏻
Amazing session (Red letter day) well done John....... I think I need a holiday!
Brilliant session. 😊👍🏻
Thanks!
Thank you very much.
Man you guys tied into some beauties on this one. Thanks for the video!🔱
Our pleasure Stu. 😊👍🏻🎣
Outstanding John, great video 👏
Thanks Mike. 😊👍🏻🎣

fantastic fishing john ,well done
Thank you Dean
nice sesh lads
that big stinger was huge
It was a monster wasnt it!!
Great video John and those were some cracking Stingrays.
Thank you very much mate, glad you enjoy joining us.
I lived there for a year, I remember a Swedish family opened a small cafe.
To help her drum up business she handed out flyer's to her potential customers.
The local police issued her a fine for doing so but the local Spanish owned clubs, restaurants were allowed to hand them out.
Then a few weeks later one evening her windows were smashed she eventually left the island after their 4 year stay there at a massive loss.
Its so beautiful there but slightly corrupted imo.
You will find many areas are like that.
@@TheFishLocker Definitely, if you have a business plan don't take it to canary's even mainland Spain is better imo.
Terrific footage!
Thanks mate.
The best fuerteventura vid love salinas enjoyed that mate you did well in the conditions top shizzle 😎💚🇬🇧
I’m going over there in the autumn
Hopefully beat my pb 🤣💪
Loved the foraging vid with your boy lobster 🦞 🔥 🤤
Cheers 🍻
Cheers bud. Aye the place has some serious potential.
I don't even want to remember. I was wading across a reef flat after snorkling and i stepped on a big one. Drilled me right in the side of my heel. Hurt like blazes for about 90 minutes then it faded away in about 10 seconds. Heat metabolized the venom. I had heard of that treatment and I can testify that it works. Extreme pain to nothing all at once.
Ouch.
Some beautiful fish there John 👍🏻
Cheers mate. 😊👍🏻
Great Video John.
Great to meet you and the family at the Boatshow on Thursday. I'll pop your sticker on my new Warrior 175!
Keep up the great vids
Glad you had a good time mate. It was a great few days. 👍🏻
Awesome session John
Cheers Paul. 👍🏻
Great fishing lads well done..I'm heading there in 3 weeks time and really appreciate the information on the island..can't wait hopefully I can catch one of the monster's..
Good luck. 😊👍🏻
What a session that's all I can say wowww
Proper session wasn’t it 💪🏻🎣
As always awesome content thanks for your time to do this video big fan of your channel
It is my pleasure John.
Great vid once again stonking ray's 👍
Cheers Phil. 👍🏻
You got into them today!! Great video! You said "Wow" on that one fish and it looked like a Wahoo!! Lol.
It was a beaitiful fish wasn’t it!! 💙
Great video......i got a stingray hit once on the hand, by a baby one maybe 30cm wide......the pain was indescribable, never had pain like it (the best thing for a sting is as hot as water you can take, as it helps neutralise the venom).....since that encounter I have a length of 40mm waste pipe.....just shove the pipe up the tail, over the sting, it can't sting you now, as it covered......never been hit since by thrashing tails.
They are surprisingly agile with that tail too arent they.
Like and enjoy 🍀👍🎣👍🍀
Greetings 🍀👍🎣👍🍀
Thank you sir.
What a great session, some lovely fish there.
Thanks mate.
Some nice rays John, I am glad to gave it a go on the Island. The big stingray you caught is the average size on my special mark that I fish and you have got a nice sandy beach to land them on which I will share with you incase you want to go out there again. The baits that you are using, work fantastic live or dead whole, great fishing John Tom
We will certainly go back again.
Some awesome catches there, congratulations!
Thank you.
Welcome to Canaries. It is a wonderful place. Most people don't take the time to discover it, but I hope you do. Fuerteventura is perhaps one of the least diverse in the ecosystems of the islands, but it is a wonderful place never the less.
We spent a lot of time exploring and finding spots to fish. We will be back for certain.
ray from USA great vid the best ever
Thank you Sir.
Good videos
Thank you Christine. 😊👍🏻
Hola John great episode, I'm knackerd just watching you, so you must be beat, hope your chinese was good, best wishes to you and family, keep safe x
We didn’t actually get one. We were too late and it closed. 😔🤦🏻♂️
@@TheFishLocker OUCH! x
Fantastic video JL, nice our local GSP Greg was of help to you, there’s nothing like the fishing community. 👍
Credit where it’s due. 👍🏻
Dream fishing in a cracking climate. Seeing those skate Brought back memories of the Australian guy Steve Erwin I think his name was, who died from the barb from a large ray penetrating his heart, so be very careful lads. Fantastic viewing John and Tom.
He is sadly missed.
