    I like this man for his friendliness, enthusiasm, his "I am who I am", just stay cool, and his pure knowledge. Maybe he learned it from his parents, or his pure curiosity. He deserves subscribers. A down to the earth man. He knows what he's doing, by experimenting, and respect for nature. In these strange times, it's great to see such people. People who don't go insane, and stay basic. Support this channel by subscription. I swear that I have nothing from this comment. It just his friendliness, knowledge, that made me watch his vids. Greetz!

    Hey John, here's a story, My daughter who fished like mad when she was five and six (24 now, still at Uni and at home,we weren't like that were we John?) and so said to me yesterday "let's go fish on Lake Burley Griffin" (In the centre of Canberra here). So there we sit with no fish even laughing at us and I start talking about this guy I watch on YT and all his exploits and she says "Yeah I watch him, Fish Locker". Good taste is in the genes ay mate. Good health to you and yours. Kindest regards Allan

    Another great vid. I noticed how clean all the crabs were, must be perfect conditions down there for them. A lot of the crabs landed up here in the North East are almost black on the underside, but I think a lot of that's down to dumping waste from the coal mines out at sea, it did a tremendous amount of damage that we're still paying the price for. Fingers crossed you and the boy are back out for summer.
