    That sir, is utter class. Your Dad at times seems to have extra limbs and digits using tools. A lifetime's learning and an important film document.

    The opening song is a bloody pearler lol. May I ask who the band/artist is who sings it? Would love to purchase that song....I’m guessing it’s called rollin on the sea 🌊

    Thank you for this labour of love. It brought back memories from childhood of lobster pots piled high on the wharf, hand-lining in the summertime, and the moss! You've preserved an important part of our history. I wonder if that was my uncle Aubrey Smith in the pic? Anyhow, thanks again!

    Nice film....Thanks. I did lots of this when I started. I wonder how many would be fishing today if they had to make their own pots?

    Ah, what a wonderful film. I used to build the same way with my Dad during the winter. Thanow for sharing. (I originally saw it posted on Facebook from my sister) Well done. I presumed your Dad passed away?

      It’s great that people are watching this and getting so much out of it. I made it many years ago and just put it up on youtube. And I am proud to say that Dad is over 80 and fit as a fiddle! I appreciate all the kind comments. Thanks!
