I've said this before, but thanks for all this content - when life gets hard some of your videos will pop up and they instantly take me away from the stress and make me feel better, it's the closest I can get to that first breath of sea air when I'm in situations where I can't sack work off and just go play on the beach. I reckon your videos have that effect on a few lads on here, so thanks. Hope life's good to you and your family!
Thank you very much mate. We do not need much to be happy tbh. I feel that is a big part of a happier life. I have always said that we simply share what we know and love doing in the hope that helps people out in some way. So to hear this from you really makes the effort we put in worth it. 😊👍🏻💙
100% agree , always great content always something to learn , loved the shot of the rock pipets chick's that's something you don't see everyday ! The other thing watching the vid clearing my throat nose running ...gotta love hay fever !
The wife LOVED catching a few wrasse on our recent 2-week holiday in Cornwall. The reason we caught those stunning wrasse, why you of course, John. It was from following your advice, rigs and tactics that we had an absolute blast out at Godrevy, from the rocks.
The beginning was good, tracking your trip to the shore. The Wrasse are beautiful and that last was a monster. Thanks for the bait, bead, and rigging information 🙂
Your videos keep me sane mate I’m off work at the moment after being taken very ill and I’m stuck in hospital at the moment but people like yourself are literally getting me through it, I can’t thank you enough 😎👍🏻
Love Wrasse fishing. My biggest was over 6lb off Brixham Breakwater on Limpet. The local guy next to me luckily had a drop net to land it for me. When he saw it he said "lucky Brummie". Great video John. Thank you.
I like your videos, your country is very beautiful to see and of course all th at you catch and harvest very reasonably. My favorite are with your family and friends.. Hoping for more outings and adventures with "little fish locker" James. He's very bright and loves his time with you and it's evident that you love teaching him everything you can and being a dad. You're awesome parents and have a beautiful family. It's father's day in the US wishing you a Happy Fathers Day. And many cherished memories childhood goes so fast. 💝🙏💝 .
I grew up in the Pacific Northwest of the USA, about 60 miles due east and inland of Rockaway Beach, Oregon. When I was a girl we went to the beach - you would probably say coast - at least 4 to 8 times a year. My mother would take us to the rock pools at low tide. Sometimes we'd go clamming. We'd occasionally look for berries or other wild foods. Sometimes crabbing. Rarely we'd fish. I always wanted to learn more about fishing. I did 5 years Active Duty in the US Navy so I had a chance to go to some really exotic places. My shipmates would go fishing. I went to the beaches with a guy who fished, and that was great fun. Your videos, which I only discovered about 2 months ago, are fascinating. Your work in front of the camera is quite good! I especially like your underwater work, but it's all very wonderful. But it's the editing that I think sells the show. Do you do your own editing?
A master class in Wrasse fishing John. Nice mark. That Pippet will be glad to get rid of you lol. When I catch a good Ballan wrasse I sometimes say ' What a corker', and my mate would say 'That's not a Corker, that's a Ballan'. Shake of the head by me and he shuts up with a smirk lol. Great session bud, thanks for sharing as usual. Tight lines and all the best.
Wrasse are fantastic sport, especially for the kids, when the other fish arent biting, you can always guarantee a stunning wrasse will save the blank! Great vid John!
My mum's favourite fish to catch, she's a master. I remember watching her, dad and a mate ledgering for a boss Ballan in the harbour for over an hour, and eventually hauling out a 4 pounder after several ragworm feeds. They're really fierce on the rod, properly pulling it over if you're not careful. Thankfully they're also tenacious and greedy. You just took me back down memory lane. Brilliant footage as always John, thank you 😉
Love your videos I’ve been watching and subscribing for quite a while you’ve such a stronge Cornish accent. From the videos I detect a bit of Falmouth alnong with quite a few other nice marks , like you I’m also a forager and also a foreigner I’m so pleased you’ve got your young lad into Fishing. I’ve got all my kids in Fishing and early age. I think it’s gonna be a positive positive thing. All the very best to you and your loverly family. Kindest regards john 👍👍
Nice video this one John. In one of my fav spots. The weather was glorious for sun worshippers but you could have done with a bit of swell. Well done catching that rod bite on film. Most I watch I feel are staged!! Good fishing matey.
Beautiful scenery , sitting here listening to the water an you talking about the rasps… Took me out of 100 degree weather! Thank you for sharing!! Amazing! Beautiful fish, the difference is quite evident an their all together! 👌😎
I only subscribed a few weeks back and every video I've seen has been beautifully filmed, clearly narrated with a clear explanation for everything you do, educational, informative and entertaining and filled with enthusiasm! Outstanding!
Hi nice to see you today John and your family at the Sea Angling Classic in Portsmouth today we did exchange a thumbs up watching the prize presentation I was in the charter boat section came 18th not bad for my first time roll on next year.👍👍
@@TheFishLocker I didn’t want to impose but if your there next year I will had a chat with Mark Williams nice chap tight lines great videos as always John 👍👍👍👍
Fishing for wrasse is the only time I ever had my rod pulled in, luckily retrieved the rod and fish, another cracking good video on a wet and dark Sunday evening cheers
@@TheFishLocker watch all ya videos to learn new techniques and genuinely just hoofin videos, trying catch in plymouth is getting let's say bit ninja at mo lol.
I am not used to catch and release, I was. In a fishing club for the last 20 years and. all our fish had to come back to the club for the weigh-in.I guess I have caught wrasse and not known what they were.
Ohhh! A crab! That's great for dinner. Thanks for posting again Uncle John. The weather is fantastic to watch the sea and clouds. I hope your allergies didn't bother you too much. Take care and stay safe!?
Once again, difference in seas. The Wrassle are very large and beautiful where you live. I am enjoying all your video's. You make them informative and very interesting to watch. The colors were so beautiful on the fish. Identical in every way except for color and perhaps patterns. Have a good day!
Great session John and some fabulous specimens and wonderful colours. Thanks mate that was a cracking video and I loved the Rock Pipits and babies! All the best Gragam🎣🎣🦀
Extremely interesting & informative video John. Your commentary could not be any clearer as you explain exactly what you are doing & why. Very good for an old disabled critter to sit back & watch. Thanks for sharing, Don from South Aust.
Another great day despite not catching a dogfish! This reminds me of when I used for wrasse off of the fingers of rock on the south coast of Devon my best fish was a four and a half pounder. I have to confess that it was eaten, that's what we did in the late 1950s/early 1960s, your videos always bring back memories of those far off happy days. Looking forward to your next episode.
Superb video upload. Some great catches along the shore. You certainly signpost Cornwall as an ideal break away for a holiday and to do some much loved fishing. The huge spider crab you caught was a surprise. The waters around the coast of Cornwall appear to be booming with life. An enjoyable and entertaining video. Thank you for sharing.
Great video John! Loved a bit of Wrasse fishing down in Cornwall. Used to use old spark plugs from my mates garage as rotten bottom weights. Headed up to some rock marks in Northern Spain in August will definitely be looking for some Wrasse.
Many thanks for the latest series of videos and well done for the amazing content. Loved the visit to Spargo's. The two of you really do have some chemistry and work well together. Oh, and the dishes are mouthwatering! Hauling lobster pots looks like hard work, and we almost lean toward the TV when you open them up to see whats inside. The latest with the wrasse is amazing, and incredible fish to see. I have yet to catch one from East Devon beaches, but hopefully soon from the kayak... The whole family is now pretty much 'hooked' on your videos, that's my wife, two daughters and me! Look forward to the next one eagerly! Best wishes to you all.
Awesome video & scenery & fish i enjoy rock fishing or marina wall fishing 4 drummer useing green weed ( cabbage) under float about 10 ft deep useing light gear good fighting fish & good eating. Happy catching from AUSTRALIA Nick
Really enjoyed the new mic setup. I thought ‘this sounds different’ and then you said about the mic. It was nice to have the wider shot and still have synced audio. Cracking wrass as well 👍🏼👍🏼 cheers Ben.
I like fishing onshore on the rocks you never know what you'll get. Well done on video editing and also how to bait the worms. Smart idea to bring extra weights and hooks when fishing on the rocks I know by first hands. John, look like you were getting the bigger fish casting out than fishing in close, very nice.
Evening John and Happy Fathers Day! Wonderful video as always. Im off out on the North Coast this week, going to follow your advice but take all the credit if I catch any keepers! Really hope you and yours are well. Thank you for your enthusiasm. You are loved in my house!
That was super to watch thank you, I recall years ago i was invited to fish in a similar location to yours, I got a bit and boy did it pull, thought I had something huge, it was an 8 inch long baleen wrasse, amazing fight in them, no surprise looking at the size of their tails, oh and caught on fresh shrimp. Super day out, but forgot the sunscreen, ouch!
Stunning scenery, excellent advice as always and stunning fish. Some of my most fun fishing has been for wrasse. Nice to see the young pipets. Keep up the excellent videos.
I’m digging the addition of the microphone, allowing you to get further away from the camera and back into the action while still keeping your commentary going. Also liked the walking scenes with the stationary camera view, a whole new flare! Keep up the great work John!
Hi John, I was in Praa Sands a fortnight ago. I tried lures until my arm nearly fell off, moving bait, static baits to no avail. Heavy seas, a ton of weed.... hey ho. Next time! Thx for the cracking content.
Took my new rod to Portugal last week (after getting into fishing thanks to this channel) managed to catch a small sea bass! Was really good practice sorting out lines and lures and stuff, really just want to say thanks for getting me into fishing, definitely started something here... 😛 can't wait to carry it back on in the UK now, closest access to sea for me is Maldon so will see what I can do here 🙂 Thanks and keep up the fantastic content!
Ace video again John, thanks for the doing them. Keep the shore trips coming, really enjoy and prefer those as that's the type of fishing I do. Many thanks and all the best!
Brilliant video John, I love fishing off the rocks, just being there is enough, but if you catch a fish, that's a bonus, you could do a cook up with Jim, using them spider crabs 😎
Thanks John, great video. Unfortunately too old to clamber over rocks now days but takes me back to my younger days, great times. Delighted to see you wearing your life jacket as usual, as a water safety officer for the RNLI, I wish more rock anglers would wear one. Please keep up the good work.
Superb video. The quality of your presentation, editing, everything is fantastic. Especially enjoy your shore videos. Thank you for the entertainment and learning. 👍👏
Hi John, when i used to do alot of Sea Fishing (stopped due to my health) and it was Rock fishing or Menai Straights fishing, i used to use old spark plugs from garages as the weight saves on using lead weights and having to make or buy some more, if the line was snagged and it snapped it was only a spark plug that was lost, saves on money at least, especially with looking at todays prices. Loving your videos, keep up the good work, Stay Safe, Barry (the Wirral)
What a magical place, and a millpond sea that's crystal clear! I was feeding the rock pipits at Chapel Porth, even those are getting domesticated . I was lucky enough to see 3 separate pairs of Choughs , the Lizard, cape Cornwall and a pair at Chapel Porth. So get your wetsuit on when you can mate and show us the Cornish wonders under the surface 👍🏴 thanks John
Really enjoyed this video, thanks for talking us through the rigs etc. This ground looks similar to my local area (Tarbat Ness in Scotland). I'm always afraid to go anywhere near the bottom there because it's where tackle goes to die! Loved the comparison between the two ballan wrasse!
I've said this before, but thanks for all this content - when life gets hard some of your videos will pop up and they instantly take me away from the stress and make me feel better, it's the closest I can get to that first breath of sea air when I'm in situations where I can't sack work off and just go play on the beach. I reckon your videos have that effect on a few lads on here, so thanks. Hope life's good to you and your family!

Great video, some cracking Wrasse, baby birds, and what a Spider Crab!
It was a right brute of a crab wasn’t it!!!
I really like those colors of the wrasse. They are nice to look at. The little birds seem protected in there. Thanks for showing us.

That is really kind if yo thank you so much 😊
I like the new mic talking without facing the camera. Reminds me of John Wilsons go fishing they used to do that too.
I got it so I can face the rods more when on the shore so I miss less bites. 😉👍🏻🎣
Have a HAPPY FATHER'S DAY JOHN. 💋 I really enjoyed my day with you. Love your videos. Keep them coming. ❤👍❤ take care and stay safe. 🦋

Just trying something a little new. What’s life without a little experimentation? 😉👍🏻
Hi John, I was in Praa Sands a fortnight ago. I tried lures until my arm nearly fell off, moving bait, static baits to no avail. Heavy seas, a ton of weed.... hey ho.
Next time!
Thx for the cracking content.
Some days are just like that. 🤷🏻♂️
Took my new rod to Portugal last week (after getting into fishing thanks to this channel) managed to catch a small sea bass! Was really good practice sorting out lines and lures and stuff, really just want to say thanks for getting me into fishing, definitely started something here... 😛 can't wait to carry it back on in the UK now, closest access to sea for me is Maldon so will see what I can do here 🙂 Thanks and keep up the fantastic content!
It is absolutely my pleasure Ross. Glad you have enjoyed taking up fishing. 😊🎣💙
Ace video again John, thanks for the doing them. Keep the shore trips coming, really enjoy and prefer those as that's the type of fishing I do. Many thanks and all the best!
The difficult thing is finding somewhere I can go that isn't mobbed by folks and that people don't start crying about when I make a video. 🤣🤷🏻♂️
@@TheFishLocker Your fame go beyond boundaries, you'll have dye your hair, change your name and talk like a southerner etc.,
Brilliant video John, I love fishing off the rocks, just being there is enough, but if you catch a fish, that's a bonus, you could do a cook up with Jim, using them spider crabs 😎
We’ve done quite a few spider crab cook ups. 👍🏻🦀
Superb scenery. Superb fishing. Simple as that really. Thx
Glad you enjoyed the video Carl. 😊👍🏻
Thanks John, great video. Unfortunately too old to clamber over rocks now days but takes me back to my younger days, great times. Delighted to see you wearing your life jacket as usual, as a water safety officer for the RNLI, I wish more rock anglers would wear one. Please keep up the good work.
I try to encourage anyone fishing like this to wear one. 👍🏻
Love the videos mate! I think the mic is a great addition, great commentary.
Thank you. 😊👍🏻
Great video and some stunning wrasse. I always learn so much from your explanations regarding tactics and rig set up. Cheers John.
Thank you glad you have enjoyed the videos 👍🎣
Superb video. The quality of your presentation, editing, everything is fantastic. Especially enjoy your shore videos. Thank you for the entertainment and learning. 👍👏
Thank you Greg, im simply sharing what I love doing. 😊👍🏻
Hi John, when i used to do alot of Sea Fishing (stopped due to my health) and it was Rock fishing or Menai Straights fishing, i used to use old spark plugs from garages as the weight saves on using lead weights and having to make or buy some more, if the line was snagged and it snapped it was only a spark plug that was lost, saves on money at least, especially with looking at todays prices.
Loving your videos, keep up the good work,
Stay Safe,

Finding spark plugs isn’t an easy thing now mate.
@@TheFishLocker Too true it was much easier years ago when i was younger. Thanks for the reply.

What a magical place, and a millpond sea that's crystal clear!
I was feeding the rock pipits at Chapel Porth, even those are getting domesticated . I was lucky enough to see 3 separate pairs of Choughs , the Lizard, cape Cornwall and a pair at Chapel Porth.
So get your wetsuit on when you can mate and show us the Cornish wonders under the surface 👍🏴 thanks John
Coughs are becoming more common which is great to see.
Really enjoyed this video, thanks for talking us through the rigs etc. This ground looks similar to my local area (Tarbat Ness in Scotland). I'm always afraid to go anywhere near the bottom there because it's where tackle goes to die! Loved the comparison between the two ballan wrasse!
An old boy I learned a lot from once told me “if you’re not losing tackle you aren’t where the fish are!!”
Your videos are ,how to fish,what different fishes are, how they act when they catch the bait, beautiful scenery….it’s learning and entertaining…
I am glad you think so 😊
Coming back from work and hell yeah John is in with new video, beer opened dinner done and I feel like I am almost fishing with ya :)
Perfect timing. 👍🏻
