- An incredible day on the water, Dolphins, sunrise and glassy sea. What could be better? Getting amongst some nice fish!!! Cod, Wrasse, Conger, Bull Huss and more.... I explain the tactics and bait I use and explain methods and unhooking.
One of the baits I used was CART. In this video Cod fishing from the shore I show a great baiting demo of how to use a baiting tool and cart bait for cod. • Winter Cod Fishing - S...
Here is the link to some of the tackle I use in this video. I hope it helps.

Salt your cart wings mate it will make them tougher and will hold the hook better 😀 love the videos 👍
@@ruddockthenorthernnative8313 - A sprinkle can help, but too much and they’re like boot leather.
i always watch your videos because it never feels like you are talking to a camera, but rather directly to us. its lovely and i don't know anything about fishing, or even have the means to fish, but i always come back to your videos because you make them so informative and down right enjoyable. wonderful content.
It’s so amazing how clear the water is. Nicely done John dropping that camera and catching that image of the conger eel
- The clarity was great wasn’t it. So cool seeing them like that. 😊👍🏻
@@TheFishLocker hi John. Great as always, and fair play finding the time to reply to all these FL fans! Question... I'm after a go pro for similar... What's the best for underwater use like this? I fancy doing it with the creels.
What a beautiful opening sequence, a real tonic in these times, thank you.
- Simply wonderful wasn’t it. 😊💙
Thank you for taking us out with you. I love your videos. I used to fish with my dad, I miss him and I miss fishing with him.
It is my pleasure. 😊
Those are the mornings we can only dream of; dolphin swimming off the bow, and jumping in a silhouette of the sun. Flat glassy seas, and good days fishing. Ok, bigger cod next time, but all in all, a most lovely day on the water! I love the way the tulle fog crept over the hills, too. I truly love those kinds of days. (of course, a 6 pound cod would on the hook would have been a great bonus!! :) )
- Id trade a cod for that intro any day mate. 😊💙
These mist covered mountains
Are a home now for me

Films like yours are the reason why I gave up on the BBC and now have £160 worth of new fishing tackle every year. Brilliantly filmed, brilliant tips and a brilliant presenter (biting your lip as the motorcruiser sped past). Puts the mainstream tv channels to shame who have never given the massively popular sport/pastime/hobby of fishing the airtime it deserves.
- I absolutely agree on every count mate. I do not miss watching mainstream TV one bit.
Totally agree, well said 👍
Perhaps one of the best fishing programs found on CZcams in my opinion.
Thank you very much. I am glad that you enjoy the videos. 😊
I just found your channel recently and I have say you are a real pro. I have been fishing for 40+ in the tropical waters around south Florida and the Bahamas and I always find it amazing to see how things are done in other biomes. I love seeing different species and methodology on display. Having to pause and google up a species of fish I am not familiar with is an amazing thing to have to do.... Cheers mate!
Hi Kyle, sorry it’s taken me so long to get back to you. This one slipped past me.
as an old man and leisure fisherman from years gone by I envy every trip you show on your vlog.
- I am glad that you can join me Joseph. 😉🎣
I'm lucky enough to live on the South Cornwall coast and have rowed and fished there for many years. The 'manners and common sense' comment is so apt when applied to the occasional visitor!
Very apt about some locals too. 🤣
West texas has some of the best sunrises and sunsets due to the fine red dust. But this....rivals any of those best days. Beautiful work by God.
That was a beautiful sunrise! The dolphins swimming next to the boat was so magnificent! Thank you for sharing those moments! Enjoyed this video.
- It was the perfect way to start the day wasn't it. I am glad you enjoyed joining me 😊
Can I thank you for all of the info you have provided me with I didn’t know anything about foraging and now I know quite a bit about it. Thanks! 😃 🎣
- It is my pleasure. We are simply sharing what we know and love doing Joseff. 😊
That under water footage with the conger would be good to show as an example of why you need to be patient and let a bite develop, I know a couple of people who strike at the first tap on the rod but fish need to have a nudge about to build confidence and take the bait, this you already know but I'll be showing a couple of people with hope of them understanding why you just need to give it a minute. Excellent stuff as always 👏
Hello John,
As an avid fish fiend ,( nowhere near your level and much to long in the tooth to even try!), I have been Binging on all your videos, Having recently discovered them. You are now ´ O’ Fishally!’ , my go to CZcams fishing Channel!
i Am actually living the moment, while watching,as I am certain that others are too.
There is nothing I can say that hasn’t already been said, as to my estimation of your, qualities as a thoroughly knowledgeable fisherman . A fascinating character and a wonderful example of an exemplary family man! I sincerely ´Doff my Hat ! chapeau !
- Welcome to the channel Paul, I am glad that you re enjoying the videos. I am simply sharing what I know and love doing in the hope it helps folks out. Take care mate and tight lines. 😊🎣
John I live in the South of France, Beautiful weather, but, not a lot of Fish !
Compared to Brighton , Sussex, where I spend a lot of time and a lot of Fishing !
i was wondering.. I used to live in Marseille in the 80’s.
Th Best meal that i have eaten in a restaurant , was a dish called ´Bouillabaise!’
In fact , it’s like a fish stew.. loads of different types of fish ! It was a dish that fisherman cooked on their Boats while at sea. i was wondering If you have ever heard of it, as I saw you throwing the crabs out of the Lobster Pots.
Crabs is a must in Fish soup , as it adds a lot of flavour. Your never short of ingredients for a Bouillabaise! Au grand plaisir !
Hello John. Would just like to say a big thank your, for acknowledging my first post. Smooth seas all the way, from the Cote D’azur
Dont ya just love people like that. Hundreds of miles of ocean and somebody always has to drive right next to ya. Dam fools
- Haha. The world is full of them. 🤷🏻♂️
Found the channel recently and binged watched most of the videos. John, is easily one of the best content hosts I have ever seen on CZcams - this guy is incredible with his passion and knowledge.
I didn't have any interest in fishing but these videos have drawn me to want to learn more about the oceans and fishing.
Thanks The fish locker and all the best for the future :)
- Thank you for the wonderful feedback Matt. It is our pleasure to share our videos with you. Best wishes and have a great evening. 😊👍🏻🎣
a beautiful sunrise and an escort of dolphins to start the day for you. fantastic. they are magnificent to see
They always brighten your day don’t they. 😊
So Fish locker squid bait brings all the fish to the yard. Well underwater yard. I have come to love conger eels. They are so beautiful. Love the underwater gopro camera footage.
Thank you very much. I do enjoy the underwater stuff too but its not easy to get the right conditions. 🤷🏻♂️
I don't wanna come over all arty and that ( I love art myself) as it's John's brilliant fishing channel but that first two minutes or so could be a JM Turner painting - absolutely magical well done mate
- Just because I'm a fisherman doesn't mean I can't appreciate the natural beauty of the morning 😛😊
Fisherman / Artist / builder bus driver nomatter what we are, you've highlighted something so beautiful, just as Turner did way back and I think it's great to see in an age when beautiful things are in short supply. Keep it up John!
@@gspianoguitar4369 yeah it looked gorgeous didn't it.
John - I received my shirt, thanks so much! Now all I have to do is fly across the pond to join you on a stroll but not under the current circumstances though. Stay safe and healthy.
- Thats great to hear mate. I hope it fits well and brings you luck. 😊
What a lovely thing is your channel! Being a West Countryman (although not a Cornish Jack) who lives now overseas, it is great to see someone with such knowledge of fishing, and love of the sea. Fair winds and following seas, mate.
Thank you Ben and take care bud. 😊👍🏻
Still can't believe those slimy sailors had the whole ocean and decided to rip right past you💀😂 "you can't buy manners"
The most true quote I've ever heard
Some folks just don’t know how to behave do they. 🤷🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
Theee Fish Locker, I"ve learnt a lot in a short time watching your videos...and also you have got a great sounding accent ...hear you loud and clear, good job keep it going thank you, man..!!
Thank you very much Michael, take care mate and enjoy yourself. 😊
Loved the go pro , and that inquisitive Conger , it strikes on me that they are a very intelligent fish. . One fish I have never caught is a cod , so was about jealous with your codling haha....
- Cod are stupid. Conger, you can tell by watching them like this. They are smart.
Without doubt this is the best , most useful and friendly fishing channel on Utube, I follow a few others but since finding the Fish locker there is no need for another channel when fishing the Ocean, from boat or shore. Thanks Buddy , you take us with you . xxx
Thank you very much Bryn, we are simply sharing what we know and love doing my friend. I am glad that you are enjoying joining us. 😊
Hello John 🙋 had to laugh as you said it just doesn't get any better then this.....and who shows there faces the DOLPHINS what a stunning sight,thank you so much for sharing it with us 👌 The go pro footage was excellent and that conger .... superb,l love to see what's going on under your boat 🌱🌱🌱💕🎣
- Thank you Joyce. It truly was one of those incredible days, the fishing just came as a secondary to the surroundings. 😊
Lovely John, great job. Good to see you're safe and well, I hope the family is too. To everyone else out there, health, o7, salud and stay safe.
- We wish you good health and happiness my friend. 😊
that gopro footage was really cool
- Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed it. 😊
Awesome brother ..just remembered about this , that's me for the next hours catching up on the latest videos, even if it is 3am here..sun's up early tomorrow and me and my pal are off fishing..I hope who ever sees this has a good day and is full of positivity 👍🙏😘
I wish the same to you my friend. Good health and happy times. 😊
Look at that sunrise. Beautiful!
Simply stunning isn't it. 😊💙
The footage on the dolphins was great and the underwater footage was fantastic. Fishing? It went to the dogs. ;)
- Haha. Very true. 😉
Awesome vid as usual buddy , closest we can get to getting out on the boat here in northern Ireland as they have closed all the slips
- That is a shame. Hopefully things will be different soon. 😊
@@TheFishLocker went out beach fishing for bass on the north coast for a change today and it seemed like everyone else watch catching them except me and the mate but still good to be out man
i think the underwater cam is a big bonus, also the introductory portion of the film makes us realise why we love the sport.
- I am really glad it worked out but it really didn’t do it justice.
I like the fact that you still make a video even if the catches werent great. It cant always be great
I have said from the start. The videos are honest. Sometimes the fishing is good, sometimes it isn’t. That’s life. 😊🤷🏻♂️
Love your channel, looking to get into beach fishing next year and don’t know what rod/reel to invest in.
- Send me a PM to the fishlocker fb page mate. We can have a chat about it. 😉
@@TheFishLocker thank you just messaged you now 👍🏻
That is very humble of you mate even though you have so many subscribers you still try your hardest to help. I believe in a saying that be good to others and good will always come back. 👍
@@decoyinguk9713 - Haha. I try to do what I can. The whole reason for the channel is to try and help folks. Though sadly a more appropriate saying for my experience of CZcams is “No good deed goes unpunished”
lovely coloured ballan, dolphins are amazing round the boat👍
- They are always a pleasure to see aren't they. 😊
That underwater footage of the eel was awesome! Great to see how they nose around the berley cage
Cool isn't it. I've done this in a few videos before. If you liked it have a look in our underwater video playlist. 😊
@@TheFishLocker Will do! Just found the channel and I love what I'm seeing, I'm on the other side of the world in Australia but you've inspired me to get back out on the pier and try to finally catch my first big Snapper! Watching those two Bluefin you caught at the moment, mega stuff.
I could watch your videos 24/7. Superb and always informative.
- Thank you. 😊
Wow! Dawn at sea is super special.
- It is a wonderful time of day at sea isn't it. 😊
I’m sat here watching a bloke fishing in the middle of the ocean. Haven’t got a scooby-doo what he’s on about, and have very little interest in fishing. But, here I am enjoying the vid and relaxing 😂
Thank you Annette, I am simply happy to be able to share what I love doing. 😊💙
Love your videos, John. The sunrise and flowing mist were beautiful!!!.......Thank you 👍🎣
- Simply stunning wasn’t it. 😊💙
@@TheFishLocker .......Yes indeed👍👍
Awesome channel! You inspire me to fish more which I have not done in over 40 yrs.
The best of luck to you Erick. 👍🏻
Wow! That mist is spectacular
- Almost like something out of a film wasn't it. So cool.
Wrapped up john looks calm but lovely fresh day
It was a fine day to be afloat wasn't it. 😊
We live in troubled times, but when we are fishing we are at peace with the world. Thank you and continue with your great videos. Take care....
- That is very true Jonathan. Take care mate. 😊
🤣🤣 I had to go back and replay the start if your video twice to hear what the bait was called..... 'Cart'...... for one horrible moment, I thought you'd said 'cat'!!!
Mind you, as a Scotsman, I'm not going to criticise ANYONES accent!! Great video, as always. Please keep them coming. As a sea fishing newbie, I'm learning a shed load!! H
- Haha. I wonder if using cat would scare off the dogs? 🤔 Best wishes Hamish and tight lines. 😊
beautiful scene john..clicked like after the dolphins ..brilliant ...just watching the rest now..lol..stay safe.
- They are always a pleasure to see aren't they. 😊
@@TheFishLocker yeah ,better in Gran Canaria tho..if we ever get back there..sad times for all..missing my trips..stuck with no fishing or just local canal..things can only get better.......great song that ..lol..stay safe ..its cornwall or bust next year lol..
God knows how you are going to improve on that. Beautiful sunrise, beautiful scenery, dolphins, selected species, underwater footage, tips on boating, baiting, fishing.
You've set yourself a hard task there John.
Thank you for a very enjoyable half hour of pure escapism and pleasure.
All the best to you and your family. Stay safe. 😷👍👏👏👏👌👌
- Haha, its one of those things Ian. Sometimes you get it right, sometimes you don't but there's always room to improve. 😊
lovely morning John... it was like glass. i don't even like the name dogfish... they're everywhere. nice baits... next time for the unicorns!!
- Next time for the Unicorns mate. 😉👍🏻
The sunrise was to die for John. Wow! Like your 'drone input, this seabed footage is awesome. A wonderful 'escape' for me again. Thank you once more John. Say 'Hi!' to the family please?
- I am simply trying to show people a little more mate. Best wishes to you and yours my friend. 😊👍🏻
Wow beautiful underwater eel shots on the GoPro!
- Thank you. I am glad that they turned out well. 😊
Everytime I see you have a new video I can feel myself relaxing, blood pressure going down and its a great way to start your day or end it. Thanks for sharing, seeing beautiful Cornwall and your videos really help me get through this crazy time... thanks and stay safe, and your family too.
- It is our pleasure Miranda. Have a wonderful day and take care. 😊
JOHN YOU ALWAYS MAKE MY DAY WITH YOUR SUPURB VIDS . STAY SAFE MY FRIEND AND THAT SPIDER HAD MY NAME ON IT !
Theres plenty of spiders down here eating for you mate. 👍🏻
What a lovely trip out. Loved the Dolphins and the conditions. You really are spoilt in Cornwall for the fishing. Has to be one of the best, if not the best region of the UK for fishing. Huge thumbs up from me!
We do have some wonderful fishing around here. But there are other places that are equal to if not better. Its just going out and finding the fish. 😊
@@TheFishLocker Originally I'm from Pembrokeshire which is similar to Cornwall in that it is South West facing the Atlantic but not quite so south. I've had some great fishing there over the years! I always take a travel spinning rod and reel for a jaunt whenever I fly to somewhere where there is clear water. Mediterranean often to try something different - and it is very different. 0.5 metre tides to start with. Can't wait to get out again!
Wow 🤩 what a awesome way to start the day. 🌟👍🏻
- No better way mate. 😉👍🏻
Hi John, Nail all your target fish, well done, really enjoyed the underwater GoPro filming, Cheers Ian
- Glad you enjoyed the vid mate. 😉👍🏻🎣
A lovely day john and some good fish another good video
John, what a fantastic shot of the seabed and the Conger Eel. Really enjoy these videos. Thanks for sharing them and your knowledge
- Thank you Alex, it is my pleasure. 😊
Thanks for sharing your life. I always wanted to live on and fish the coast, and I get to experience it vicariously through you and you’re amazing family. Blessings, friend 🙏🏾
It is our pleasure Nate, I am glad you can join us. 😊
Amazing content every time John....thanks for the video....always smile, n get comfy with a brew , sit down and watch your vids....happy times...🐠🎣

Another great video John, I look forward to seeing your videos as I am unable to fish anymore, watching you walk around and and pointing out all the different species is exactly what my friends and I used to do when we were young. And it’s great to see you pass on your knowledge to James. Keep up the great videos, best wishes to you and your family.
- I am sad to hear you are unable to get out but glad that we can share our adventures with you. 😊👍🏻
Very nice video. The view was stunning. I really enjoyed underwater footage. Hope you will do more of those.
- Thank you. I have done it in a few videos before but its getting the right conditions. Have you seen my Underwater video Playlist? It has some incredible footage in. 😊
Just wonderful as always John, that scenery is beautiful and great catches
- Thank you Georgina. Have a lovely evening. 😊
Another good video John and a cracking bull Huss 👍🏻

- It is times like that that really are healing for the soul. That sky and the calm and then the dolphins. Just wonderful.

Love the underwater footage 👍
- Thank you. 😊
Hi John, Thanks for another great video. Glad you have had good weather to get out on the boat.Best wishes to the Fishlocker Family!
- Thank you Nathan. Best wishes mate. 😊
That sunrise is beautiful! I live in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina and I can see the Ocean from my front door and since I work the night shift, I usually arrive home just in time to enjoy the dawning of a new day! I hardly ever miss an opportunity to just sit and watch and think about how incredible this life really is! Keep up the great work John, I really am enjoying your channel.
- I do the same. Sometimes I just shut off the engine and sit and enjoy the sight of it. 😊
I love the underwater footage.
- Thank you. I have done it in a few videos, you just need the right conditions. 😊👍🏻
@@TheFishLocker Yes I've seen a few of your other videos. When you said you were fishing a reef in 60 feet of water I just expected it to be dark at that depth and the bottom to be rocky with lots of weed so it was something of a a surprise to see such a light, yet near barren seabed. Not many places for the little fish to hide from the bigger predator fish for sure.
Give up lol class fish again top of table with what you do and inspire your explanation and how you offer guidance as well is very enjoyable too watch in these negative times but your positive vibe keepin people alive 🙂👍
- We are simply sharing what we know and love doing Robert. I hope that it helps folks out during these stressful times. 😊
Absolutely stunning ... !!
The quality of your work is bang on pal .. thanks for the ride 👍
- It’s a working progress mate. Still plenty of room for improvement 😊👍🏻
Brilliant, cant wait , stay safe John 👍
Thanks for sorting that kit out john been on few trips already rhos on sea llandudno kimnel bay love it
Any time Mike. I am glad to help. 😊
Another great video my friend 👍
- Thank you Jamie. 👍🏻🎣
Instead of seeing if you"cant" catch something, why not see if you "can" catch something 😂😂 love the vids👍
All of a sudden... CONGER!
Awesome footage, thank you so much!
- Thank you. 😊
Wow, what a morning to go out, accompanied by some dolphins and nice Go-pro view from the bottom and a curious conger ho wants to play, lots of dogfish and they are also good to eat, skin theme and de-bone theme cut in small chunks and put it in some beaten egg and than in breadcrumbs and fry theme until golden brown, served whit some tartare sauce is it delicious!😊👍🏻
- It was a stunning morning to be out wasn't it. 😊
Love the rolling fog! What a morning sunrise!
- Incredible wasn't it!! 😊
First two minutes of pure video magic! What a beautiful view and that mist! WOW!
- With a start like that it really did set the day off well didn't it. 😊
@@TheFishLocker Well, not a bad life there is it ;-) Set my day off just right here too this morning! Really appreciate your videos!!! :-)
Another great video. The underwater video of the conger was great and that rolling mist at the beginning absolutely stunning.
- Thank you very much. I am really glad the footage came out well. 😊
