Another great video mate. To anyone wondering, he's a great guy in person too. Really friendly and what you see in the videos is really who he is. Was a pleasure John keep up the great work.
Omg John , cant believe the size of that crab. Great to see the pregnant female lobster and to protect them is essential for the life cycle of the species. Great stuff as usual
@The Fish Locker that's a crusher and a bruiser. Biggest I have seen you haul John. Nothing like that up here. I'm in Middlesbrough so North East Coast really
@@TheFishLocker- John - do you find that shooting your pots onto rockier ground can also help deter pot poachers too as they can be just too much work to pull up and take your contents?
@@TheFishLocker hopefully they are not watching and learning how to get them out of the rocks lol. I don't know if you call them the same in your neck of the woods but out here in the US we have porch pirates that steal packages and people set up all sorts of traps to annoy them for stealing. You're innovative maybe you can up with something like that for your pots lol. Like spray them with your most stinkiest dead bait. Or pinch their fingers lol I think you could come up with something.
I think you have the best fishing show . I like the variety especially Spagos kitchen and when you go foraging along the shore. Keep those great videos coming from the USA.
"This guy will just break your bones." Then a smile and sets him back in the bucket. Made me chuckle. I hope he tasted great! One of them would be plenty for your family I bet. Thanks as always for sharing, John. I just can't get enough of your videos! Tight lines!
Great video John &, as always, very informative & educational in that very relaxed style of commentary that is uniquely YOU. What a monster crab to go with your 2 lobsters, you can't ask for much better than that. Say hi to all the family for me & all stay healthy. Cheers, Don from South Aust.
An easy like, as always. Your pleasure with that crab catch, made the video. Enjoyed the information offered and had my last question answered. I don't sea fish or haven't yet but using Dogfish for pot bait seemed sensible. I didn't bother posting, as I had a 'feeling' I could just watch and find out. So here ends my little effort, as a thankyou for all of yours. Have a great day.
My wife walked in to hear "Pollock heads" she says Pollock heads to you too! But only in a lovely way. Loving your adventures. Thanks so much John. I love it.
It's a good thing you're a fisherman and not a poker player. It's easy to see the joyous expression of a good pot at soon as you can see what's in it. Sometimes it's great keepers, but it's great to see that you have just as much joy from the more rare catches that you can teach us about. I'm stuck in Kansas and have never seen the ocean anywhere, I've done a lot of inland traveling, but just never was able to get away from the farm long enough for a seaside vacation. Most of my vacations centered around horse shows or going to purchase a new horse.
That crab is a BEAST!🦀 Surprised you didn't humbly apologise and politely ask if he wished for you to gently put him back! Favourite crab recipe, John?
Had to rewind and listen again to your explaination of how to tell the difference between male and female crab at about 26:20 made me laugh out loud. Always love your videos my friend.
When my kids were young, a pack of bacon and some crab hooks. They absolutely loved it. I'm doing it with my grand kids now. I think I'm more excited doing it. Obviously, we catch them, out them in a bucket then throw them back. It's just making those memories.
Nice 1johnny it's nice to see a Whitby smile that bueatiful crab I'm counting the red pots this season John we will see which 1ns make the most money god bless you all and keep on smiling m8
I’ve got all my mates glued to your videos buddy my dad especially he’s an old trawler man out of Hull all his brothers were skippers out of Hull & Grimsby sadly only my dad left and he loves watching your fabulous films stay safe buddy and continue making fabulous films.
I bet Jim is going to have a field day cooking a special dish with that massive crab! Nice haul, and I loved the education about lobsters, v-notching, and your usual attention the environmental aspects. Great one John!
John, that brute would be a trophy here on the Oregon coast! That damn crab would be a celebrity. Our fishing port in Charleston would be displaying that as a tourist attraction! My toss in crab nets never got that much love. This was fun John. Love home brother and you are doing a great job.
Well! You certainty have us entertained every video. Its that catch every week we guess the size of the lobsters and crabs you catch. Usually we guess within 2mm but that monster you caught was unbelievable. Well done bud.
Another fantastic video of hauling the pots. Thankyou for what you do and the enjoyment you bring to so many people. Can't wait to see what the next video has in store for us.
I would of loved to see the look on James’s and mrs fishlocker’s face when you took that monster of a crab home still loving the videos keep them coming
Hello John I love your vids the knowledge imparted the care shown to the catch and concern for the ecology. You have that empathy that really only northerners have Well done Mike
That was a monster crab, just goes to show that if it's managed right there's plenty to go round, lots of small lobsters and crabs for the future, crackin video again mate, see you in the next one John

Another great video mate. To anyone wondering, he's a great guy in person too. Really friendly and what you see in the videos is really who he is. Was a pleasure John keep up the great work.

You wouldn’t like him attached to your fingers would you!!
@The Fish Locker that's a crusher and a bruiser. Biggest I have seen you haul John. Nothing like that up here. I'm in Middlesbrough so North East Coast really
@@TheFishLocker- John - do you find that shooting your pots onto rockier ground can also help deter pot poachers too as they can be just too much work to pull up and take your contents?
@@mstrdiver - that’s partly why I do it
@@TheFishLocker hopefully they are not watching and learning how to get them out of the rocks lol.
