John, don't ever think that we just want to see you catching fish, all the ones you miss are just as exciting for us fishermen as the ones you catch, your videos are brilliant.
Hello from across the pond in Florida. TexasTim was a name given to me by my fishing buddies here. 35 years ago. You have an absolute killer channel and especially when out with your son. It reminds me of taking my girls fishing on the wrecks years ago. Keep up the good work and tight lines and full pots!!!
That was pretty awesome John, those Ling are awesome looking fish. l tried 3 times to watch this, my granddaughter put a stop to that, 4th time got lucky. Your reaction when the big Ling surfaced , is that feeling all fisherman love, ripper vid and bring on 2023, tight lines mate.🎣🐟🇦🇺
Yet again John, some BRILLIANT fish and a dmile a mile wide!! Keep rm coming you blooming, SOLID angler snd MEVER forget!! You are a NORTHERNER!! 😂😂😂😂.
John the sheer delight at your hard work and knowledge paying off, is contagious. I was delighted to be part of the experience and I thank you for sharing with the world. Those fish were excellent and your reaction proved it, I am astounded by your problem solving and use of your equipment to help you bring in the most fantastic catches. The Fish Locker (freezer) will be full of the bounty of the sea and I'm sure that at Spargos kitchen will produce many beautiful dishes. All the very best and again, thank you for what you do and the knowledge you impart to the rest of us, be it a fisher or non fisher. love to the family and Keep Safe X
Thank you very much Nick, I hope that by sharing the videos showing the trips in an honest light is helpful and useful for people. Showing the good and the bad. The hard work and the triumphs. Have a wonderful day my friend and take care 😊👍🏻
Great day fishing John, you present your video so well I feel like Iam there fishing with you ! Great quality fish and with your hard work you was rewarded Really enjoy watching your videos mate Keep em coming
@@TheFishLocker heeeeey John massive fan I’ve started a small you tube channel which is pretty much dedicated to motorcycles and quad bikes BUT I do have a secondary channel that I’m hoping to turn into a fishing channel I’m saving for a small boat right now I was wandering if the next time you come up to Scotland would u b interested in doing a video with me on your channel and hopefully I could maybe do some filming too as it would be great to b in a video with u I could also use some of your personal secrets love to hear from u Dave from bike,beards and belly’s channel
It's strange how the harder you work the luckier you become! repositioning the anchor when others would have stayed put....just rewards for your efforts great video thank you! I'll share my favourite fishing mantra too; the gods do not take from a life the time one spends in fishing......here's to watching you in later years enjoying the spoils of the sea!
That’s it mate. If I’m not happy I keep at it until I am. Same with a leader knot or anything. As soon as I was where I wanted to be it was bang on the money 3 times in a row.
Massive thankyou to fish locker for teaching me so much. As did T.a fishing. Now on my 6th beach fishing session and got my 1st few keepers of whiting. Now after something bigger. Love all your vids m8.
You do have a relaxing influence I'm all of a sudden out of the defending myself from people projecting pettiness mode and pleasantly into listening to you while I cook honey soy chicken and green beans
Maybe a different comment for you to look at other than the obvious great work you do and the knowledge you share freely and openly is amazing. If only you knew what else your videos do for some people including me! I am from Edinburgh but currently in Australia trying to find work. I am not having the best of times at the moment and miss home like mad! Your videos take my mind off what’s going on just now and actually make me feel like I’m on the boat with you. My mind is able to escape and brings me a lot of comfort, just wanted to make you aware that other than the knowledge and entertainment you supply, you are also helping out a few folk including me through harder times… especially with a 45 min video like this 👍🏽cheers and take care
If my videos help you in any way then I feel they are worth making. I know exactly how you feel. Times when I was in the military and hadn’t seen home in a long time I would watch “Heartbeat” a period drama set in my local area. Chin up Robbie and keep at it mate, you’ll come right in no time. 😊👍🏻
After many decades of using many different brand of fishing Rods, Shakespeare Ugly sticks are still one of my most reliable brands . I’ve had many, The value in the rods has stood the test of time. Most of my rods gets broken during travel or boat mishaps. At one time I had a few broken Ugly Sticks and I sent them to the local warranty center, and was happy to have nice new replacements for each of them. I was thrilled, so I ordered a couple of custom setups for something special, and they put together a nice pair of heavy trolling rods for me. Sure hope the company is doing good, the rods are good and the warranty is good.
Well all I can say is you lucky puppy, lol 1st for owning a Boat in a Beautiful part of the UK 2nd Them Ling are amazing fair play to you buddy the last 3 were awesome sizes....Got to be 1 of the fish I've never tried.. Congrats John on the new 2023 season, can't wait to see you on the pots
As usual, great video! Telling us about the ones that pop off, lost rigging, and other real situations is part of the sport. It makes the rest of us feel okay about our own flops. I enjoy the fish you catch and bring in, but I really like the lessons I learn from your explanations, and the scenery is an added bonus. Best wishes for a lovely 2023. 😊
The videos are always honest. The mistakes and the successes. As you say, that is what fishing is actually like. I’m glad you find the videos helpful. 😊👍🏻
Heck of a successful trip! I lived in Suffolk for 3yrs with the USAF and hired a charter for ling. Didn't catch a thing and was using some ugly looking worms for bait. Wish I'd been with you!
Mackerel make great bait, but even better, they make a nice meal if you don't catch anything bigger. So catching them is a win/win. As always, watching your videos is a joy/source of envy to this mountain dweller. Keep up the good work.
“Strike hard, first ten feet are crucial” surprised to hear you use feet instead of meters but that advice is gold! Just got back from an offshore wreck trip, had a ton of porgies (kinda like a bream over there) woulda loved to pull up a pollock or some ling like you did in this video but that’s why they call it fishing and not catching. I did pull a decent ling out of a wreck but he dropped off about half way up, love the content keep it coming!
Howdy John from the Oregon Coast, USA! That was quite the haul of Lings! We grow a few big ones like yours here too 😉. It's good to see you starting your year off with a bang! We really enjoy your channel, and always look forward to your next video. Take care and good luck!
I'm glad that you explained that the other ships were fine being so close, I honestly thought it might be in poor taste to fish that close to someone else.
@@TheFishLocker is there an equivalent to the stereotype of Germans waking up before dawn to claim dominance over a sun-lounger? Must be frustrating to wake up super early and excited only to sail out and realise the spot was already taken by a guy who always gets there earlier.
Another fantastic day shared with us, I hope that the Cornish tourist people pay you for the advertising! Glad that you explained that the fishing gear was put there on purpose, I always thought that the nets snaged the wrecks by accident. To cap it all you even got a PB dogfish, (well sort of).
Hello from Melbourne Australia 🇦🇺 love your channel and the way you chat to us like it’s just you and me just a mate showing me what to do . Some what like a dad teaching his child or an older brother and younger sibling🐟🎣🚣🏿♂️🛥🐟🫶
Have to say John as someone with youth on my side you’ve really got me into the fishing bug life, what I’d give to meet you see your ways in the flesh would be something special, keep up the amazing videos and all the wonderful species. Happy new year John
The Maestro. You never cease to enthrall, educate and provide enjoyment John. Once again, my thanks for a wonderful video and my Best Wishes to all the family for the coming year.
Nice one John, some monsters there and a bonus spur. I used to do a lot of small boat wrecking but got expensive steaming 6 - 12 miles out and back plus drifting all day, then I got a job on a wrecking boat and got paid for it, major win!😁 Looking forward to see what 23 brings 👍
@@TheFishLocker No not at all, just finding them for the first time is an achievement in itself because they're never where they're meant to be on a chart. One old skipper I worked for started off just with decca so when he got GPS he was so used to doing everything by numbers he didn't use a plotter at all. I need the plotter lines to be accurate haha 👍
I am sure the Ling will provide very good eating in what ever recipe you choose. Great video! I have started eating a lot more seafood since watching your videos, thank you.
I fully agree with you about the early morning being the best part of the day. Brilliant fishing with your great knowledge. Would love to have been in your shoes on that trip. Thank you for sharing
Well, that was pretty good. Think everyone watching enjoyed it just as much as you did catching them!!! Can't bleve you're going to be in Birmingham at the NEC that not to far from me at all. Hope you have a good time at the show mate. Cracking video as always John tight lines bud all the best 🎣🎣🎣
What a channel I’ve found and great video! Last month I did my first 3 boat trips landing 3 tope to 28lb and pollock to 3-4lb, loved every minute and now getting the taste for bigger after watching your videos! Hopefully I can go back soon armed with better tactics as we just used feathers for the pollock.
What a way to start 2023. on your first trip out. For the first half of the video nowt going right, but then you turned it around, the grin on your face got bigger with each fish coming aboard. I was sure you were gonna do a jig😄 at one point. Great content from start to finish 👏👏👏👏👏👏 Have a great time at the NEC. Tight lines mate. Arthur
