Thank you Darren and Helena for the positive feedback, it really means a lot. I am glad that you both enjoy watching the videos and find them helpful. Best wishes and have a wonderful day.
A red letter day for the bass, John. When we come across that out of Plymouth the bass will move about, or rather one part of the enormous shoal will surface and then go deeper and we have to follow the birds to where they're hunting on top again. Usually it'll only happen for 30 minutes, but 2 hours is the longest I've seen. Brilliant sport. Thanks to you and Dave.
Well that was rather special, what an episode to come home to, that was really good fun to watch, one hell of a session, thanks to both you and Dave for sharing this with us all John
that brought back some happy memories, I used to fish on the same grounds in the eighties, double figure cod, big conger, you look like you had a good days fishing,
Iv not even caught one bass . Never mind all off them awsome days fishing . Yous where right Never leave fish to find more fish Cracking show can't wait for boats in water 👍🏴✌️😁
@@TheFishLocker apologies John, so I’d been to work, a couple of beers followed that, then I’m watching all my favourite fishing You tubers including yourself, and I keep nodding off, watched a bit of Frugal outdoors ( Dylan) woke up and I’m into one of your clips, out on your mates boat, and yes I messaged the wrong person, the next time I woke up the wife was watching the tennis, there you are an insight to a You tube viewers life, I do enjoy your posts so long may they continue Kev x
Brilliant video ye had a great day, the bass were amazing and so many great stuff. John you are definitely king of the dog fish and I say Dave beat you with the different species you can win them all bud 🇮🇪 thanks for sharing john
Yous guys having too much fun..... Awesome!! Thanks for dragging us along. Vicariously fishing in the UK is a trip too. Oh yah, in my opinion nothing says your in the UK like "Chicken and Cheese"! Thank again!
The bass fishing at the end really turned it up a notch for us didn’t it. Great to see you on the shore and keep in touch with Dave about sharks in the summer. 🎣👍🏻
Superb footage as I have come to expect. Absolutely smashing the bass. Birds were feeding well too there, obviously some amount of food about. Bass up here in the Highlands of Scotland are nowhere near your record breakers down there John. Thanks for uploading such interesting content. Also, thanks to Dave and I will defo check out his channel. Superb gents 👍
Awesome again John a great bass session the ocean here is like a pane of glass water clarity is like gin u can see 2 maybe 3 fathom down need a storm & plenty of rain .Happy catching from Australia Nick
Great video John and Dave, Great fishing and content, What a great variety of fish you guys had, Really enjoyed that last part where you guys were pulling out bass after bass and can totally understand why you kept saying one more cast it was like being a kid in a sweet shop with no limits it's to good to miss you don't get days like them every day. Cheers John and Dave. Dave I will check out your channel. See you on the next one guys.
A good fish locker video because the fish locker is going to new places and fishing with other fishermen it is something different for the viewers thank you fish locker for all your fishing videos very best wishes from Ben 👍 👌
Loved that. The slop on the banks brought back fond memories of a lovely week spent with Jason back in '21. Was a lot choppier one particular day even prompting Jase to say it was the worst he'd stayed out in. Great week,chased by an aircraft carrier,visited by coastguard just as I was having a poo in a bucket,first big conger,blonde,spurdog and a 9lb smal eyed from the shore on my carp rods. Cheers!
What a shoal of bass you and your friend had , a most enjoyable video and all down to fish presavation of our fish stock well done John and your friend 😀
When fishing is a good as that , there always time for a last cast 🤣🤣 ,my homeland in the background , top water bass fishing!! brilliant, appreciate both your efforts gents , 👍🏼👍🏼🎣
I remember being off the coast of Devon 35 years ago i would of been 12 ish, about 4 miles off shore in a boat same size as this one and three huge shadows past underneath our boat they looked as big as a submarine possibly whale of some sort I'll never forget how terrified i was. Never been back out.😅
Nice day on the boat with a mixed bag of fish ( apart from John, he just let the dogs out😉) and at the end great bassing. Enjoyed the video, thanks guys
That turned into a cracking wee days fishing didn’t it. A shame that all those bass came on the off season. I suppose you can’t have it all your own way can you? Thanks for taking us along for the ride boys.
@@TheFishLocker I know you were John. We could see that plain enough. I actually thoroughly enjoyed this episode. I like them all but with the sound of all the sea birds this one gave me a bit of nostalgia. My dad is a bird fanatic and when we were kids he used to take us all around the UK to the sea bird colonys in breeding season. He still does it. 75 and still gallivanting around the uk in a caravan bird watching. He even drags my mum along even though he knows she’s not interested 😂
Brilliant video boys thank you! John I thought you were fishing the ‘dogger bank’ while Dave was catching everything else lol. Great to see so many bass, just wonderful. When is the season for bass! Thanks mate, really enjoyed this one. All the best Graham.
Great video as always, I just got back from beach fishing at Milford on Sea where i had multiple bites but only one pulled out, My first ever Smooth Hound a small one (nothing on yours) but its a fish. Yippee.
@@TheFishLocker😂 come back in the summer, there's thousands out there. Don't go on a charter trip though when doing it, 8 people on a boat, chucking floats with 12ft traces over the side with live mackerel, bloody right mess 😂
Great to see so many Bass . Great news for the future . Thanks for your stream great to watch 👍👍👍👍BTW just subed to the Warrior more to watch thanks for the intro.
What a fantastic day you had with the bass, in my fishing days (1950s-early2960s) there weren't any seasons or restrictions on sea fish. See that the Cornish doggie's followed you!
I really enjoy your style of fishing video rendering lads. Had no clue about British fishing. Thanks for the material and all the fun but bloody tell us who your favorite football team is. Go Liverpool. ManCity will take it again this year though. Pip pip and cheerios.
FYI: you should try to rub your fluorocarbon leader with a folded-over rubber patch (e.g., a repair patch for an inflatable boat or a bicycle tire). The heat generated from a few rubs straightens the curled-up leader. Have always worked for me with curled-up leaders for fly rod lines since I moved to Alberta in 1974 - and had to give up on coastal fishing in the Baltic Sea.
Thank you Dave for having me and for I look forward to fishing with you again soon. youtube.com/@thesolentwarrior584?si=XDKRFOlF7eAzMtGq
Your smoothies are prettier than ours, lol

This was an area where the tide was running through a bottleneck and the bass were just circling round it.
Great. To see two men having a great day together doing what they love to do!
Dave and I have fished together for many years and both love it.
Great to see yourself and Dave bringing some stunning fish in, well done lads.

Yet another superb video John, fantastic Bass fishing. You dream of sessions like that!
You don’t find bass fishing like that very often!!!
Nice going John & Dave, amazing catch of bass, looked like great fun😀
We had an absolute blast. 😉🎣
Brilliant!!!!

Great days fishing out on the boat lads 👍
Thanks Peter.
Sending greetings from the other side 🇹🇭
Greetings.
Great video John and Dave,
Great fishing and content,
What a great variety of fish you guys had,
Really enjoyed that last part where you guys were pulling out bass after bass and can totally understand why you kept saying one more cast it was like being a kid in a sweet shop with no limits it's to good to miss you don't get days like them every day.
Cheers John and Dave.
Dave I will check out your channel.
See you on the next one guys.
That’s it. You maybe get bass feeding like that once every 5 years. Definitely not an opportunity to pass up.
Hi , can't wait for this new video
Hope you enjoy it!
Well i already know it
Elias
A good fish locker video because the fish locker is going to new places and fishing with other fishermen it is something different for the viewers thank you fish locker for all your fishing videos very best wishes from Ben 👍 👌
Thank you Ben, we do try to create varied content. Unfortunately at this time of year the weather limits us a lot.
Loved that. The slop on the banks brought back fond memories of a lovely week spent with Jason back in '21. Was a lot choppier one particular day even prompting Jase to say it was the worst he'd stayed out in. Great week,chased by an aircraft carrier,visited by coastguard just as I was having a poo in a bucket,first big conger,blonde,spurdog and a 9lb smal eyed from the shore on my carp rods. Cheers!
They will have timed it like that on purpose. 🤣
Now that's what I call fishing!! Love a baitball and birds!!
Nothing like it is there!!! Everything just frothing with excitement!! 💪🏻🎣
Great trip lads. Thanks
Any time bud.
Lovely stuff - you could probably see my folks place on the Island where you were fishing! Nice to see you in a different part of the country!
It’s good to mix it up a bit sometimes isn’t it.
Superb both of you! Those bass!! Awesome.
Thanks mate. Epic fishing.
Fantastic session boy's. Happy Easter to you and your family's. ❤
Thank you very much.
What a great trip for the pair of you, you make a great combination 🐟🎣💪
Thank you Kev, Dave and I have fished together for over a decade. Always great to get out fishing with him.
My neck of the woods too 🐟🎣
Looked like you were near the shallows lads…excellent fishing as always from you 2 fanatics!👍
When you find them feeding like that it’s none stop isn’t it. 🎣👍🏻
Fantastic video ❤ those bass at the end looked like great fun
Amazing fun.
What a shoal of bass you and your friend had , a most enjoyable video and all down to fish presavation of our fish stock well done John and your friend 😀
Thanks John, have a good one mate.
Brilliant session Jon. "One more cast" Ha Ha.
Always time for one more cast.
Welcome to this neck of the woods John . The bass often save an otherwise ' doggy ' day . Happy Easter.
They certainly changed the pace of this session. 🤣🎣
Great to see two channels I really enjoyed collaborating. Superb fellas!! 😎👍
We spoke about you a fair bit mate, and when we met up with Will. 🎣👍🏻

There is always time for one last cast. 😉🤣
@@TheFishLocker definitely mate 👍🏼
If not for the close season that would have been operation fill the freezer stunning day's fishing👍
Haha.
I remember being off the coast of Devon 35 years ago i would of been 12 ish, about 4 miles off shore in a boat same size as this one and three huge shadows past underneath our boat they looked as big as a submarine possibly whale of some sort I'll never forget how terrified i was. Never been back out.😅
We occasionally have whales around the boat.
Fantastic film this, two great guys loving their sport, dave has a new sub!
Excellent. Have a great week. 👍🏻🎣
That was some good fishing and crack weather, send some bass back down Cornwall, what a way to finish on
Making the most of the small weather breaks.
Great footage
Thanks Andy.
Nice day on the boat with a mixed bag of fish ( apart from John, he just let the dogs out😉) and at the end great bassing. Enjoyed the video, thanks guys
I was just doing my best to clear them out of the way for Dave. 🤣
A brilliant video lads really enjoyed that appreciate it all the best 😃
Glad you enjoyed it mate.
Great video, your up near me today as I live in Portsmouth. Lovely bass!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks Shaun.
That turned into a cracking wee days fishing didn’t it. A shame that all those bass came on the off season. I suppose you can’t have it all your own way can you?
Thanks for taking us along for the ride boys.
I was just as happy seeing them as I would have been keeping a couple. 😊🎣👍🏻

Next month the bass season opens up again. 👍🏻🎣
@@TheFishLocker Many thanks John
Nice mate great video 🎣🎣
Glad you enjoyed joining us bud.
Great video as always, I just got back from beach fishing at Milford on Sea where i had multiple bites but only one pulled out, My first ever Smooth Hound a small one (nothing on yours) but its a fish. Yippee.
As you will already know, when I get situations like that I reduce the hook size to try and find those shy bites. Well done on the Smoothound. 👍🏻🎣
Awesome fishing, love it off the needles, drift over the bridge with float and live mackerel, get some big bass then
It’s catching the live mackerel that’s the hard part. 🤣
@@TheFishLocker😂 come back in the summer, there's thousands out there. Don't go on a charter trip though when doing it, 8 people on a boat, chucking floats with 12ft traces over the side with live mackerel, bloody right mess 😂
Great to see so many Bass . Great news for the future . Thanks for your stream great to watch 👍👍👍👍BTW just subed to the Warrior more to watch thanks for the intro.
No problem at all. I’ve know and fished with Dave for years. I did another video with him a few years back. 🎣👍🏻

I can catch a dogfish anywhere mate. 🤣👍🏻🎣
Great watch guys and brilliant session 💪🏻👌🏻
Cheers bud. Came good in the end. 👍🏻🎣
Another nice fella well done again lad's
Cheers mate.
Good to see you're keeping up on the dogfish skills. 🇺🇸😀
What can I say mate. It’s a gift. 🤣🎣
Epic vid that mate 👍 good team effort. Looking forward to the next one 🎣
Thanks lad.
Nice video John thanks

Nice one thanks guys
Our pleasure.
What an amazing video. Tyvm
My pleasure. 😊🎣
Great channel picking up some good tips 👍👍
Glad to hear it.
I really enjoy your style of fishing video rendering lads. Had no clue about British fishing. Thanks for the material and all the fun but bloody tell us who your favorite football team is. Go Liverpool. ManCity will take it again this year though. Pip pip and cheerios.
I don’t follow football mate. I couldn’t care less. 🤣👍🏻
Hahaha good deal
Great stuff lads 😉👍🏴
Glad you enjoyed it Phil.
Fishing my local waters. Great to see
Glad you enjoyed it 👍🏻🎣
FYI: you should try to rub your fluorocarbon leader with a folded-over rubber patch (e.g., a repair patch for an inflatable boat or a bicycle tire). The heat generated from a few rubs straightens the curled-up leader. Have always worked for me with curled-up leaders for fly rod lines since I moved to Alberta in 1974 - and had to give up on coastal fishing in the Baltic Sea.
I just use my fingers? Works fine for flouro up to 80lb
I really enjoyed that, and of course, I subscribed to Solent Warrior. I guess I'll be on youtube for a few hours tonight.
Dave specialises in fishing the Solent and IOW area. He catches some brilliant fish.
Cracking lil sesh bud, finally a day without getting drenched 😁🤙
Managed to get back in the van before it lashed it down. 🤣
That was lucky 😁, doesn’t seem to stay dry for long 😝🤣
Another fantastic video
Thank you Kirk. 😊🎣
brilliant days fishing john
Glad you enjoyed joining us.
always enjoy your videos john one of my highlights of the weekend watching them and jims kitchen
Lobster pots and crabs. I miss those videos. I love your videos but we need some exciting fish.
Just waiting for the weather to sort itself out.
