@@scotland.is.magical528 - That is a pretty fair assessment. Some videos are more complex. Underwater ones take more work. A sharking video for example is a 12 hour day on the boat minimum. Add 2 hours either side for prep and cleanup. Using 3 cameras that will take around 3 days or 20 hours to edit. Then there’s proof watching and upload. Plus the hundreds of comments to respond too. And that is per video.

The earliest known wreck in Cornwall was reported in 1284 when 2 lives were lost at Kelynack, near St.Just. The first named wreck was a Spanish cargo ship known as the La Maudeleyne which stranded in (supposedly) in Mounts Bay and has become a scheduled ancient monument.

Hello John, Another great video, I really enjoy watching all your videos and learning. I am a novice at fishing having only returned to the hobby last year. Please could you explain more about the issues with the other boat so I and others can avoid the same mistakes - the first two points you made about 1. Steaming close and washing you off the wreck and 2. Steaming over the wreck and scaring the fish make sense to me, these both seem like stupid things to do. However I do not understand your 3rd point though 3. Don't fish with lures on small neap tides. You tried to explain this in the video but I do not understand your point. Please could you go into more detail about why this is wrong to do and how it affected you/the other boat?

@carlos777uk

@TheFishLocker

Жыл бұрын

I have explained the principle many times in other videos - usually lure fishing ones. Predator fish take energy from the water around them. They feed when the tide is flowing. So lure fishing for them is far improved when the tide is flowing stronger. Neap tides are when the tide is running slowest. Also, using long booms and traces when the tide is slack causes unending tangles as there is no tide to keep the trace out straight.

Funny story about the guys that have been fishing (or spinning the yarn) for years. I live pretty much the furthest from the coast you can in England, do quite a bit of coarse fishing though! Maybe once a year I nip to the Yorkshire coast and have a day charter fishing on a small break. Everything I know about offshore fishing comes from you, Graham from TAF and bits and bobs from other channels. So last year I booked a 6 hour charter and set off. On the boat I noticed a few nods and winks between 2 local guys (who seemed to be well acquainted) and the skipper! Turns out these 2 were regulars and often got to fish for free as they helped the skipper with the 'dumb tourists'. I found out at the end of the trip and on the way home when they started shaking my hands and saying " sorry pal we had you all wrong". That due to my shorts pale legs and typical tourist look I admit I had, that they had had a bet (turns out they do it regular) that I was a sure thing for seasick/hooking myself or others/losing the most tackle or asking them to unhook a fish. I caught not only the biggest (cod) but also the most fish on the boat! (I know luck probably played a part) and as the so called 'veteran of 20 years' pulled up his 5th wrasse and I looked and said " that's a ballen wrasse right"? He said "maybe not" to which I replied "peacock then" his face was a picture and when we got back on land he was like " your pulling my pisser you do this fishing regular"? I was like "Nah just watch Fishlocker and TAF" haha 😂 sorry for the wall of text but it made my day!

Hello John, just to say your videos and knowledge about your fishing is second to none m8 have you ever thought about tv an hour slot would be brilliant better than all that reality guf tight lines

A few TV companies have approached us but are not interested in anything but making money. Not in making good content or our family friendly ethos. Also, we don’t really fit with the political agenda of most mainstream U.K. channels. I’m a white British straight married bloke with an education.

As always awesome content thanks

Nice vid mate 👍 i was shore fishing in Anglesey the other weekend, i had a guy in a boat sail close to the rocks asking if i was catching anything, i had a few mackeral, so he pulled his feather rod out and stayed within casting range. There's some funny folk out there 😂

Glad you talked about that seal problem, and i do agree. I however would still support people whp nurse seals back to health when they're injured or sick from a manmade source (ie, garbage, nets, or line wrapped around their flippers or neck)

Another question i have is why don't you use a gaf hook?

@TheFishLocker

Жыл бұрын

I agree with that. If there is a man made issue like pollution injury. I do occasionally use a gaff. But often don’t need to.

@spicylizards4714

@@TheFishLocker that's fair, although most of the time up here in Alaska was use a gaf hook, although you do need to haul the fish 6 feet up the side of a large boat, so it's well warranted, and there's also the possibility of hooking into a 100+ pound halibut...
