Hauling Homemade Lobster and Crab Pots- Cornwall | The Fish Locker

- In this video I show you a couple of trips hauling our homemade lobster pots in our small boat. I show you how I rig, bait and shoot my lobster pots. Then show and talk about what we catch in them, discussing applicable minimum landing sizes and other info.
I think this guy demonstrates a true respect for the animals that he interacts with. I love the fact he constantly refers to the legal size of marine creatures and releases them back to the water. He obviously has a wonderful relationship with both his 'good wife' and his son, who always sounds so excited.
- Thank you very much Stephen. I am thrilled to see you enjoyed our content and that you share our philosophy about responsible fishing and foraging. It is something I hope others adopt more and is a lesson we are teaching our children. Never take more than you need and always treat the natural world with respect and appreciation. I love being able to share these things with my family, and have been waiting since before my son was born to teach him about the ocean. Have a great day Stephen and all the best. :)
I want to point out that any other channel would have named this "OMG WE CAUGHT A SHARK SEE WHAT HAPPENS NEXT".
But no, Fish Locker keeps it reel 👍🏻
Its_Jackal - Thanks mate. Aye we just try and keep it simple and honest. 😊👍🏻🎣🦀🦞🐟
Some Guy - He was pissed I’ll give him that.haha. 😆
what a TOTALLY AWESOME comment............ that prat is no comparison to Mr Locker..... Chalk n cheese
max wragg - I think it’s just a difference in sense of humour mate. Wet and dry. 😉😛
@@TheFishLocker aren't female supposed to be thrown back again? I am just wondering since I stumbled across your chanell by another video that was about lobster and crab fishing.
I like how you smiled when you said your good wife will cook it into something delicious.
Ристу Георгиев - She is a wonderful cook. But cooking shellfish is not her favourite. 🤣
I don't loke shellfish or fish in general, but this is incredibly soothing to watch at work, and very informative. Makes me miss the sea. Great vids!
Get back to work you Slacker!
DJVC1985 - I am very happy to hear this. I also find a certain peaceful calming quality to being on the water. 😊👍🏻🎣🦞🦀🛥
Your channel really deserves everything u get, there are loads of other fishing channels but yours sticks out! Keep up the good work!
alex Hill - Thankyou Alex, I am glad you feel that way. We are just sharing our passion and hopefully helping folks to enjoy it to. 😊👍🏻🎣🦞
alex Hill but this is *so much more* than a fishing channel.
Found your channel 2 days ago and you're already one of my favorites, You're just so kind. Thank you for the great videos.
- It really is our pleasure. I am so glad to hear you are enjoying our content. We are simply sharing what we love doing. :D
I like how you give a mini bio of the catches you get, It teaches me more about them.
- It is our pleasure. We are simply sharing what we know and love doing. :D
I love your channel. I'm 75 years old and will never be able to do what you do, but I can live vicariously through you. Keep up the excellent work my friend
- You are never too old Suzette. ;)
Me too.
I love watching you, the way you teach is so awesome. You look us directly in the eye and explain so we can understand. It is a wonderful and kind way to be teaching your son (and us!)
- It is our pleasure Bobi, we are simply sharing what we know and love doing. I am really glad to hear you are enjoying the videos. :)
Oh my gosh the shark was so mad at you.
"YOU TRICKED ME! GET THAT DANG HAND DOWN 'ERE, I'M GONNA GIVE YOU A RIGHT CHOMPING!"
vonBelfry - Haha. They are so aggressive aren’t they. And then the snooty way it swam off like “Hmmphh Showed him who’s boss!!” Haha 🤣🤣🎣🐟
You are always so informative. Thank you.
- It is my pleasure Jodi, if people learn and take more of an interest in the natural world around them then the vids are worth making. :)
Brilliant! Just came across your channel the other day. As an ex Scarborough man, now living in Brazil, this is a real taste of home. Well done!
- Ahhh, an Algerino. You're a long way form home down there mate. Glad you're enjoying the channel. All the best and stay safe. :)
@@TheFishLocker aye, it's amazing where life takes you. 😎 Slowly working through your videos. Really enjoying them. All the best bud.
Chris Trotter - Wicked. Any questions about anything just leave me a comment mate 👍🏻🎣
Great session topped off by the wee man's tinkling laughter over the bull huss. Thanks again you Fish Lockers!
- As always mate, it is our pleasure. :)
Nice video again you never what you will find when pulling pots.Thanks for sharing.
Nigel Barrett - No mate you never do. That’s one of the things I love about it. 😆👍🏻🦀🦞
I didn't know the difference between a male and female lobster we're learning so much on this channel and it's very adventurous and informatiive and it's such a nice warm family channel I appreciate all these things.
Rosemary Watson - It is our pleasure Rosemary. We are simply sharing what we know and love doing. If people are finding our videos helpful and informative then they have been worth making. 😊👍🏻🦀🦞
When I was in Maine as a kid, a little lobster shack by a lighthouse run by a small group of fishermen had a lobster weighing in at over 10 lbs. Not bragging as I didn't catch the guy, but it blew my mind. They sold lobster $5/lb cooked with butter and parsley. Ate it right by pier. Even kids can understand how special lobster is! It always seems to taste way better when it's fresh, like all seafood yeah? I have a lot of respect for honest fishermen, though. Truly. Great video by the way. It's a special feeling to put food on the table for your loved ones.
- I agree completely. It really is a special feeling to be able to provide for yourself and family the delicious fruits of the sea. I have seen some big lobsters before but never that big.Haha.
I am making my way through your back catalogue of videos, and they are excellent. Your knowledge is brilliant. ACE mate
- We are just sharing what we love doing mate. Take care Jason, best wishes to your family and stay safe. :)
@@TheFishLocker cheers fella Hope you are staying safe too
Jason Bryant - Just trying to stay safe and out of the way. 👍🏻
Brings back wonderful memories,grew up in a small village in South Devon called Torcross, i had about twenty pots,i didn't know it then but they were there best days of my life
Gabriel Cristian De La Prada - You often do not realize that until the time has passed do you. I am glad that we can walk with you down memory lane and that you are enjoying our videos Gabriel. I have seen your comments on a few videos now. Thank you for taking the time. :D
That shark was very strong nice photos James sound so happy again.
- He is such a happy boy. He loves being out on the boat. :)
I was wanting to see how well your traps worked . I am very impressed. That has to make you feel fulfilled to use equipment made by your hands and they work so well. Again I’m impressed. Great video as well.
Isotelus - Thankyou very much. Yes it’s a great feeling when something you’ve made from scratch works and works well. 😬 Instant validation for time and effort spent. 😉👍🏻🎣🦞🦀
this man loves the sea. you can see it in his eyes. goodluck to you good sir
- I absolutely do, and have since I was a young boy. Best wishes to you and your family. :)
The Fish Locker thank you, send my love to your family especially your beautiful son james. lots of love from Malaysia
😂😂😂 Shark was so angry, love the video, learned something new! Keep them coming, best of luck!
Yoshi Eggs - Thankyou very much. 😊👍🏻🦞🦀
Once again, VERY informative. Every video always makes me hungry!
- Thank you Mike. I'm just finishing up 3 more homemade crab pots ready for this season. Might put them out next month weather depending.
I love watching your videos. Your knowledge of everything sea life & fishing is amazing. I'm from Florida and I love a kindred spirit of the sea. You had a great catch that day! Keep Fishing!😎🎣🚤👪
Electric Boogaloo - Thankyou very much. Marine life and wildlife has been a passion of mine since I was a lad so being able to share that not only with my family but all of you is just wonderful. All the best and have a nice weekend. 😊👍🏻🎣🦀🦞
My new favourite CZcams channel
- Thank you very much. We are simply sharing what we love doing. :)
Well done John. Been waiting to see how those pots turned out. You must be thrilled.
dazzyfm - Thankyou. Yes we are very happy with how well they work and have had some delicious meals from them. It’s extra special catching something good with something you’ve made yourself completely from scratch. 👍🏻😊🦞🦀
Great videos, Thank You. We've had wind and subsequent ground swell here in NJ, I'm fishing vicariously through you these past few days :)
Andy B - We haven’t had much decent weather here lately. Grabbing short weather windows has been about all we can do here for the past 3 weeks. 🤷🏻♂️👍🏻🎣😊
Great vid John! It's always more pleasurable when you make something yourself and it works well! Good job pal! Tight lines 🎣🎣🎣👍👍👍👏👏👏
Paul whitemore - It really is isn’t it. Instant justification for time spent and a proper pat on the back when it’s all homemade. Great fun making and great fun using. Glad you liked it mate. Thankyou. 😬👍🏻🎣🦞
I'm happy to have stumbled upon your channel. As a Filipino living in an archipelago, the sea is in our blood. Hope you can visit one of our beautiful islands and explore its rich marine life one day. ;) Please continue being kind to the animals. :)
- Welcome to our channel sir. I hope you enjoy our content. I am also from a fishing family in a small coastal town. :)
Great videos John, loving watching these, keep them up mate
C33 Happy Home - Thankyou very much. We’ll do our best. 👍🏻🎣😊
At first I didn’t rlly like this guy but now I like to watch him
- Well I am glad that you now enjoy the videos.
Love this channel! You and your family are amazing! Thank you!
- Thank you very much. We are simply sharing what we love doing. :)
I think I've learnt more from this video alone than any book I'm reading on the subject. Great to see a fellow NE bloke down where I'll be and doing what I intend to be doing in 3 years time. Nice one
- Are you planning on moving down this way? Which book are you reading? If you're into learning more about this, have a look at The Fishlocker fb page. We post more on there than here. ;)
@@TheFishLocker "A Living from Lobsters" by R Stewart. Not bad so far but I'm a simple man and actions speak louder than words, so yours vids (and I'll check out your FB page) are very welcome. And yes matey, plan is to move in summer 2022, take up being a decky for experience then going out alone. Absolutely love Cornwall. Of all the places I've been to around the globe, Cornwall tops the lot
English Kernigit - We have a couple of video that might be of interest to you. How To Make A Crab and Lobster Pot czcams.com/video/Z1kYxVom6yg/video.html
@@TheFishLocker thanks matey. I'll have a butchers at thoe
English Kernigit - It’s a shame you aren’t heading down now. There’s a local bloke selling a couple of thousand medley pots. Only about 4 months old.
Thanks for letting the shark go so gently. You're the best!
- We like to return as much as we can. Those nurse hounds are great creatures.
Love this mate. Crabs are one of my favourites and looking forward to next year crabbing for the first time. Thank you.
Nomad - Best of luck mate. 👍🏻🦀😬
You sir are really living the life there! Hello from Australia
- Life is what you make of it. Welcome to our channel Josef and have a wonderful day. 😊
Thank you for the knowledge on your catches as well as a good way to cook them.
Jamie Northern - It has been our pleasure. 😊👍🏻🦀🦞🐚
I just found this channel the other day. I love it! Subscribed.
Tim Murphy - Hi Tim and welcome to our channel. 😬 I hope you enjoy working your way through our content. If you have any questions just leave me a comment. 👍🏻🎣
you're so informative i'm in Canada but sizes are similar and measuring techniques are awesome you are an inspiration to us!
- It is our pleasure. 😊
Love it !! - Brings back memories of hauling the really large pots out of Alderney.... No hiding your smiles when the pots scored !!... Looking forward to seeing them get cooked up.....Im grabbing a tent and tackle this weekend and doing a few days around Dorset to see what I can pick up....Hoping for a Bass on the fly.....
Giles Killinger - That would be a fantastic achievement. Do you tie your own? I’ve fly fished before a few times but I’m not really fully proficient. It’s such a great feeling isn’t it, hauling pots eager with anticipation to see what you’ve caught. Even better in homemade gear. 😬👍🏻🎣🦀🦞
@@TheFishLocker - Yes tie all my own trout flies but buy my sea flies as everything is stepped up. I use my reservoir 10wt rod for Bass and they hit it really hard... Just need to find them and then its game on...
Giles Killinger - Definitely let me know how you get on there mate!! 😬👍🏻🐟
Only just found your channel. Really enjoying watching and learning from your foraging videos
Lindsay Elliott - Thankyou Lindsay, I am glad we could share them with you. All the best and have a nice day. 😊👍🏻🎣🦀🦞
I love ur heart and ur passion in ur vids.. Lots of love for u and ur family from Estonia ☺️❤️
- Thankyou Tiina, we are simply sharing what we love doing. All the best to you and your family from Cornwall in the UK
Nice catch even better when they come out of your very own homemade pots
Trojs Fishing - Thankyou very much mate. Not quite up to your standard but great fun for a bit of a play around. Different design to yours and won’t usually get the spiders but work ok for the lobsters. 👍🏻😬🦞🦀
@@TheFishLocker As long as they catch that's all that matters. Plus its fun for the kids to see. I used to love watching my father lifting up some old homemade wooden pots and the anticipation of what might be in them.
Trojs Fishing - Mate it’s magical. I still get a little goosebump of anticipation every time I do it. Little man loves it. Not too keen on spiders but is very happy with any fish and lobsters. 😊👍🏻🎣🦞
Great to see two of my fave tubers having a chat.
John your face was a picture of happiness when you spied those lobsters.
8r4ham - Thats what all this should be about Graham. People talking and sharing ideas and information. We all share a massive passion for fishing. I love Trojs vids. I love his raw down to earth style. Great info aswell. 👍🏻😬🛥🦞🎣
I love how you respond to all the comments you can! Awesome!!
- I do my very best. I made a commitment to myself when we first started that if people could take the time to make a real comment then the least I could do was find the time to make proper response. The last couple of videos have had up over 2k comments though so its pushing me to the limits of what I can manage. But I will try my best. :)
@@TheFishLocker Anything is better than nothing! Especially since you've been gaining subscribers like crazy! We love an involved CZcamsr! Good luck!!
A -3- Person - It has been wonderful getting to interact with so many folks who share our passion. One video now has over 6500 comments. It’s incredible the connection we can build with the youtube audience.
@@TheFishLocker This is one of the reasons as to why I want to also become a CZcamsr, it all just sounds crazy lol!
A -3- Person - Its a lot of work and you will experience negativity from people.
Greetings from Louisiana in the US! Discovered your channel the other day and got to say, been greatly enjoying it! Very relaxing to watch you do what you clearly enjoy doing. Very informative! Keep up the great work and happy New year to you and yours!
- Thank you very much and welcome to our channel. As you say, we are simply sharing what we love doing. :D I am glad you are enjoying our videos and we wish you good health for the coming year. All the best from Cornwall in the UK.
Excellent vid, like all your others. Good to see how genuinely pleased you are with the success of your traps. Cheers.
anglerfish1001 - Thankyou very much. I’m always excited when I’m fishing. And to catch something in a pot you’ve made entirely from scratch yourself is instant validation for all your time spent. It’s a great feeling. 👍🏻🎣🦞🦀🐟
Great to see how your genuinely excited about fishing great video
Declan o hagan - Mate I absolutely LOVE IT!!! All of it. Boatfishing, shore fishing, coarse fishing, crab pots, bait collecting. The whole experience. Absolutely magic!! 👍🏻😊🎣🦞🐟
The Fish Locker never had the opportunity to have my own boat yet but hopefully someday your videos are very informative an great to watch so just like to say thanks
Declan o hagan - That is really great to hear. I’m just trying to share what I love doing with people and hopefully help them to enjoy it to. If you have any questions about anything give me a shout. All the best. 😊👍🏻🎣🦞🐟
Love your informative videos.
- It is our pleasure Anthony. If you have any questions about any of the videos just leave me a comment. :)
Great i can see how happy you are with the pots well done mate
lefty940 - There is something really exciting about traps. Be it pots, nets or lines. Never knowing what might be there and the elation when you catch. All in homemade gear. Nothing better!!! 😊😊👍🏻🎣🦀🦞
The Fish Locker - loving all the content - nice to hear your Whanau in the background - and ya Wee Man running commentary - special stuff - Thanks again - Wayne
Wayne Sparrow - As with most of the things we do Wayne, it’s a family activity. 😊👍🏻🦞🦀

Limey Bones Jones - Thankyou. I hope you continue to enjoy our content. All the best. 😊👍🏻🎣🦞
Just started watching your channel, thanks for the great content and tips. Really enjoying your work.

Great video again John, Loving the content excellent mate.👍👍🦀🦞
gary murray - Thanks Gary. All the best mate. 😊👍🏻🎣
Love it when you cook them in same video!
- We will be building on our catch and cook videos in the very near future. ;)
Nice catches, also glad to hear you got your pots back after they vanished.
Gary Threadgill - Thanks Gary. Yes we were so relieved when we recovered them. We spent a long time making them and as you can see they work really well. 😬👍🏻🎣🦞
Never used pots at sea live to far from the coast but have trapped eels in the past and still trap rabbits checking traps still gets me buzzing thanks for sharing
gary CURD - It’s brilliant isn’t it. That anticipation and excitement. Doesn’t matter if it’s snaring rabbits, setting fenn’s or fish traps and lobster pots. Always giddy and excited. 😆👍🏻😬🦞🎣🦀
Great videos, can watch them all day, I'd love to go fishing with you. Well done mate, subscribed 🎣👌
Gary Smith - Thank you Gary, I hope you enjoy working your way through the videos. 😊👍🏻🎣
Great stuff. I fish just 2 pots a few miles up the coast from you. Absolutely love it. I understand how gutted you were when they were cut. Glad you got them back. I've just sold my old boat and have a new one arriving next week. Can't wait to get back fishing! Thanks for the great work mate you put a lot of time and effort into it which is much appreciated 👍👍🎣🎣
Gareth Grimshaw - Thankyou Gareth. 😊 it’s great fun potting isn’t it. What type of new boat are you getting? I bet you’re itching to get it out on the water!! Best of luck mate and tight lines. 😉👍🏻🎣
I've gone for an Endeavour 500 John. Will have a 60hp Mercury on the back. All brand spanking new. Had last boat for 18 years so hopefully this one will last the same! Can't wait for her to arrive 👍
Gareth Grimshaw - I BET!!! They’re a great looking boat. A lot like the warriors. 👍🏻🎣🛥🐟
Well if you ever fancy doing a subscriber teach in on my new boat I'm your man! Just up the road in Gorran Haven. Very much a novice despite time owning a boat. That's why I appreciate your channel so much. All the best. 👍🎣🎣
Gareth Grimshaw - We’ll put a pin in that for now mate. I’ve got a friend who I’m going to do something similar with over the next couple of weeks. We’ll see how that goes first. 😉😛👍🏻🛥
Well done on the catch mate!! Glad you got your pots back too! Lobster for dinner! Nice video mate really enjoyed this one.
The Portsmouth Angler - Yeah we were so relieved to recover them. Bit annoying to say the least. They work really well, we’ve had some cracking catches with them. 😉👍🏻🎣🦞🦀🍽
always better when you catch in something you made yourself,most of the time i find home made traps or nets or whatever it maybe are much better than the commercial types!
stinking polecat - Absolutely. Instant feeling of validation and achievement when you catch in something you’ve made completely by yourself. Yes, often when it’s something you’ve done yourself you do a better job of it. 😉👍🏻🎣🦞
I definitely wasn't expecting a shark. Great video.
- Haha. Just goes to show you never can tell whats going to happen. :P
That's an awesome video mate. 2.40 you look like a kid in a sweet shop.
- There is a special pride that you feel when you catch something in a trap or on a trace you have designed and made yourself from scratch. I imagine it must come from those hunter gatherer portions of our DNA. I love it mate!!
Great video and very educational
👍🏻
David Beckett - Thankyou, hopefully these videos will help people out. 😊👍🏻🎣🦞
Alright buddy. Brilliant videos, you've kept me entertained for hrs! I haven't seen content like this since a passion for angling and J.Wilson's stuff.
- I loved JW his pure passion for fishing in all its forms. Amazing man and did so much for the sport.
Same here mate, itl take some doing filling his shoes!
Any cod showing down your way?
Captain Morgan - Not enough time warrant a journey for them.
Quite a few doubles coming out from the channel, hopefully it's better than last year.
Bristol channel
Amazing you are a man with many talents. Great videos I've learned a lot from your videos, love watching trapping crabs and lobsters. That huss in the trap lol you don't know what you're going to get .Thank you Sir
eightgeorge - Thankyou very much. 😊 I’m really glad you’ve found the video helpful. I love it! Shore fishing, boat fishing, coarse fishing, lobster potting - making all my own traps and rigs. It’s my absolute passion 😊💙 It is really exciting hauling your pots, you do really never know what might be in them. 😬👍🏻🎣🦞🦀
@@TheFishLocker I fully agree with you. I caught one velvet and one stone crab yesterday 😊 Which I measured to make sure it was legal size after watching your videos. Is it legal for us to use traps and how many can you set? Thank you keep up the good work Sir
eightgeorge - It depends where you are mate. The local Byelaws for Cornwall can differ from Devon and Hampshire etc. But where I am I can have 5 total of spider, edible crab, lobster and crayfish. But no more than 2 of either lobster or crayfish. So for example, 1 lobster, 1 crayfish and 3 crabs. Best speak to your local fisheries authority. They’re easily contactable online or by phone. 👍🏻🎣🦞🐟
@@TheFishLocker Thank You for your reply.
Congrats John. Success on your home made pots. "Proper Job" Mate.
KEITH HITCHMAN - Thanks Keith. Yeah they work a treat. A great DIY project for the rainy days and great fun to use. 👍🏻😬🦞🦀
Shark had the “ U WUT M8!” attitude.
- He was having none of it was he.Hahaha
Great video again John, keep up the good work. Lovely part of the country you have down there.
Andrew Dudman - Thanks Andrew, it’s a blooming wonderful spot to live down here. We’re so lucky. 😊👍🏻🎣🦞🐟
@@TheFishLocker Yes, I'm very jealous. Even though I'm Whitby born, and Whitby bred (strong in the arm, and thick in the 'ed) my ancestral family home is Cornwall. I must make a point of visiting someday, those waters are crystal clear.
Andrew Dudman - I’ll never go back now. Life is too good down here mate. 😊
@@TheFishLocker I get that John. Makes perfect sense. Looking forward to your next video.
Andrew Dudman - Tight lines mate. 👍🏻🎣😉🦞
Fantastic videa was a pleasure watching
Thomas Keegan - Thankyou Thomas. I’m glad you enjoyed the video. Just us sharing what we love doing. 😊👍🏻🎣🦞🦀🐟
Awesome video!!! Thanks
- Our pleasure Dan. Best wishes and tight lines. :)
Fascinating, not into sea fishing or anything related, but love your videos keep them coming!
Phil Thorpe - Thanks Phil, glad you found it interesting 😊🎣🦞
Good stuff and good luck next trip.
ivor nappinion - Thankyou very much. 😬👍🏻🦞🦀
I've just made some crab wheels and they work really well, the other day I had seven spider crabs and one brown crab and a tiny little lobster and a couple of grand old sized velvet swimmers, i put them down here in Weymouth off the stone pier
David Storton - Cracking job. Those wheels work brilliantly for the spiders. The lads in Guernsey have been having a lot of success with them. 👍🏻🎣🦀
Cracking vid, think I'll give them a go... The bag for life loves her lobster. 👍
wesley chidgey - Haha. I bet you don’t call her that to her face. 😆😛
The Fish Locker of course not 😂 I’d be in Davey Jones’s locker.
Excellent tips. Double bouy and coiling up spare rope. Will copy on mine.
Derek Allport - Glad you found it useful mate. 😉👍🏻🎣🦀🦞
Great video! Making me hungry now 😉🦞
Sea Fishing Only! - They were bloomin delicious 😛🍽😬🦞
Excellent videos, like all your others.
Romas fisherman - Cheers buddy. 😬👍🏻🎣
I was drooling !
Christina Moneyhan - Those homemade pots really have caught us some delicious dinners. 😊😛👍🏻🦞🦀
That's a nice big lady lobster🦂 thanks for sharing
josephd27 - We have had some fantastic lobsters in our homemade traps this year. It’s been a brilliant family project. 😊👍🏻🦀🦞
@@TheFishLocker a nice family outing for sure 😊
_Nice!! I never thought about it till now but lobsters can have their Cutters and Crushers on either side._
MAGGOT VOMIT - That is true. I always assumed it was like left handed and right handed people. 😉🦞
You caught some really nice lobsters and crabs. I wish we could find stuff along our beaches like you find and I would love to go crabbing one day. Would you mind shelling one of your local oysters and one of the invasive oysters so that I could see if they have similarities to the oysters I love here in the states? I don't want to waste so would you know of anyone who would eat them? I think its wonderful you have all this knowledge and share it with your son. Nice to be able to have a wife that enjoys it with you as well. You seem to have a very nice family. I love your respect for the ocean and all of the creatures that inhabit it. My son will enjoy your channel.
- Hi Tanya, we don't harvest the oysters because we do not enjoy the texture/taste. The invasive and local are very similar in appearance, the invasive is longer whereas the local is more round and disc shaped. When shelled they are almost identical. They both taste of the sea with the invasive being slightly stronger in flavour. I am glad you enjoy the channel and hope your children will enjoy it and find it interesting also. Take care. :)
Brilliant job
hedgerowpete - Thankyou Pete. All the best. 😊🎣🦀🦞
I'm just hooked on your site, cheers!
I am glad to hear it. 😊
Yum Yum :) Nice 1 John.
Colin Philpott - Thanks Colin. Yes they were absolutely delicious. 😛🍽🦞
Well John its 4.00am thanks for the entertainment see you tomorrow good night Pal, Tel G
Have a good one mate.
BRILLIANT !
david cole - Thanks David. 😊👍🏻🦞
I just love this channel,brings peace to my mind every time i watch your videos❤
- Thank you so much, that is really great to hear. All the best to you and your family over the festive period. :)
These are the type of parents, who put the Great in Great Britain!
- We are simply doing our best and what we feel is right Glenn. Nothing more. 😊
Hi this channel is full of awesome content always keeps me entertained you deserve tonnes of likes and subscribers also those homemade pots are really good have you been diving recently because they are my favourites.
- Thank you very much. I haven't been diving much lately as the water quality hasn't been great. But as soon as it clears a bit I will be getting out. 😊
still say you need a crab snare.. lol.. beautiful work as always..
DumbestFisherman TV - I will give that a go one day. Would work well for spider crabs. 🦀😉😬
So glad you called it what it is. Just watched a forage clean and cook video from a channel I won't rat out, but their 'foraging" video consisted of them lifting crab pots, and occasionally picking up a clam or muscles between pots. Throwing the non keepers hard into Rocky area. "Oh we don't keep pregnant ones" chicks it against a rock. "Oh this ones to small" it's clawing has hold of the pot, rips 2 legs off tosses them off and then throws the crab over his shoulder into rocks. Was a disgrace. That's not foraging. That's disgusting to even call it that. People who don't respect the wildlife and ecosystem giving them such a bounty for nothing but time and patience...I can make human traps. Lol
Dyin Hope - I think I know the boys you are referring to. Education people is big driving factor in our videos. Life is a learning curve after all. 😊👍🏻🦀🦞 Another fundamental lesson I hope comes across in our videos ( and that I am teaching our children ) is to never take more than you need, and to treat the natural world with respect and appreciation 😊👍🏻🎣🦀🦞🐟
I watched your previous one with the cods, and this one, very nice videos, especially when you are keen fisherman, but got stuck in London..!!
I have some questions to ask if Ok with you:
Q1. Which part of Cornwall you film all your videos, East, West or the tip side?
Q2. When season is best for fishing with the boat?
Q3. Are there any interesting spots to fish from the shore and where?
Thank you
Gus
Gus Barbero - Hi Gus, welcome to our channel. I am glad to hear you are enjoying working your way through our content. Shame about being stuck in London. We film most of our videos on the south coast of Cornwall as Devon. There is fantastic fishing throughout Cornwall in summer and autumn.
Wow very nice.. I bet some people leave a few lobster in the pots over night to collect the next day.
Bangersnsmash Uk - How do you mean? Because you can only take 2 a day? That’s sneaky. 😉👍🏻🎣🦞
Wow what are you suggesting ?😉
'Store pots'.... for if you gave a blank day.... 😉
Chris Davison - I’m not sure what the rules are for them round here. I know in some places they aren’t allowed. 🤷🏻♂️ But I know where you’re coming from. 😉👍🏻🎣🦞
@@TheFishLocker I've got my hobby license for lobsters.... Can't remember reading anywhere if you cannot use a store pot....
Good food on yer door step 😜 love it have it 😁
👍👍👍🎣😁🏴😁✌️
chopperhehehe - Cannot beat it mate. 👍🏻🎣🦞🦀
@@TheFishLocker caught a nice golden coloured cod today never seen one afore it was gorgeous in life and on plate lol
👍👍👍😜🏴😁✌️🎣✌️
chopperhehehe - Haha. I’ve had some stunning ginger orange ones from hard on the kelp before. Some too good looking to keep. 😉👍🏻🎣
beautiful video, I guess if you can upload a video on how to make the cages? It would be really interesting,
thank you!
Martin Tadilli - Here you go Martin. 😉👍🏻🦀🦞 czcams.com/video/GPtZXZLpkrA/video.html
Exactly the question I wanted to see :)
good job!
- Thank you very much. :)
You made me so very nervous holding that shark. Loved seeing all your catches!
- They're not that bad. They're pretty slow witted creatures and you just need to stay clear of the sharp end. ;) IM glad you're enjoying our videos. :)
Class mate, wicked channel too 👍🏻
Peanut Butter - Thanks bud. Glad you’re enjoying the channel. 👍🏻🎣😊
Im up in the northeast mate, keen fishermen and Iv been itching to get a boat and get out on the water, one day mate 😉👍🏻
Peanut Butter - Good luck. 👍🏻😉🎣🦞🐟
Nice video mate, should make some crab pits myself, quite skilled at crabbing off the jetty😂
adbfishing - Haha. Cheers bud. Aye get yourself one made up. They’re good fun to make and it’s really rewarding catching with your own homemade gear.
@@TheFishLocker think it'll be hard for me to get the hang of the weaving nets but it'd be a fun project for the summer
adbfishing - It’s not that hard when you get your head round it. Great DIY project. 👍🏻🎣
I have only ever caught crabs and Bull Huss in my pots! Wrong bait i think! Also had two pot disappear of St Anthony's when left in for a few days 😢 Another really interesting video, thanks! 🦀🦀
MrNakedLandscaper - It’s horrible when folks do that isn’t it. We had a couple of ours get lifted by someone. Thankfully we got them back. Fresh fish like mackerel I’ve found catches crabs and huss, stinking wrasse or pout catches more lobsters. That’s what I’ve found anyway. 😉👍🏻🎣🦞
@@TheFishLocker It is awful, our pots were far away from anyone but still went. I've got a doggie in the fridge from the weekend so going to try that next weekend a bit further round the coast 👍🦞
