He is a very good angler, that I follow from New Zealand. An inspiration, and I have written a couple of best selling books about fishing in New Zealand with lures. We can always learn. What amazes me, and pisses him off is that his boats are not built with rod holders in the Gunwales, or Transom. We learn a lot But in New Zealand every boat has rod holders in the transom, and gunwales, and many have a "Rocket Launcher" as well, which is a frame containing half a dozen rod holders above the canopy, and never gets a wave over the top.

John is an excellent fisherman and I learn something every video I watch. It would be really nice if we could learn from his Father in Law, on how to prepare and cook these wonderful ingredients, he, like John really explains in an understanding way, how to prepare dishes for Johns catch.
Good evening John! An interesting fact about the dogfish: they used to be an important part of manufacturing arrow shafts for the longbow arrows.. Basically they used the skin as a sandpaper in order to polish the shafts. A particular countryman of yours,Mr. Kevin Hicks, has a video from his workshop detailing the matter,if you are interested..I would share a link to his KZread channel but I don't know if it's all right with you.. All the best! Andrei

John is the keystone for what I have come to expect from Fishing Vtubers. Friendly, informative, does his best to protect the environment about where he is fishing, and all around a joy to watch every video.
Another great video John,loved your last 2 videos, with the commercial fisherman. Relived old times. Keep it up and thank you.

John is my hero! I've been following John's adventures and lessons for around 2 years now. We moved to Cornwall, from the Midlands, on November 1st 2022, and putting into practice the myriad of tips, tricks and techniques, along with all the natural history knowledge John disseminates, I have felt like I actually know what I'm doing! Foraged three beautiful brown crab on Saturday's spring tide! Two cocks, one hen, all were legal, but, following John's teachings, I returned the hen and still got a GREAT feed for all of my family. What's not to love? Costal living ftw! 🤍

Many thanks for taking us on another trip. Interesting how the weather changed during the day. Some lovely fish too. I like dogfish but completely get that a little variety when out fishing would be nice...😂 they are as tough as nails, my friend and I have caught a few hundred and not lost one. Barbless hooks helps to get them back safely. And losing skin to them does hurt..I know. Good little tip there. Best wishes, Kev p.s. loved the footage of the doggies underwater, so graceful. Could almost forgive them everything!

Im really getting into your fishing exploits John. To the point of actually knowing what type of fish you bring over the side and whether it's a male or female and whether it's bait or table. Ive some mate's who beach cast off pevensey and Eastbourne. Literally 8 miles away from my home. I'm definitely going to have a yap with them and hopefully have a go.

Always interesting and informative...the question is...To Dog fish or not to Dog fish that is the Spider Crab!!😂
What you mentioned about unclipping and clipping on another trace. As you probably know. Used by myself and match anglers.

Your height above sea-level + 50% then square-rooted, will give you distance to horizon. I'm 6' so I can see 3 miles. Vessel's beyond that will still be partly visible as superstructure is much higher than sea-level 👍

Hi John... Now silly question maybe, I'm getting back into shore fishing. Only winter time, i live n west Midlands bang in the middle of country.. Where would be my best chance of decent winter cod.. Cheers buddy..
I like to catch any fish on a single hook John weather on a lure float shore or boat , a good size mackerel on a lure and light gear is always a good response I think ,,, dogfish and spiders I’ve been there they soon become pest but they go as they came it’s just part of the game , just a couple of years ago we couldn’t catch a mackerel on the boat and dare I say it the amount of bass ended up like your doggies LOL 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧John Plymouth

Hello Shipmate. Where did you get your coloured weights from? Good idea.
The old dogfish can be a bit of a nusance, however in my day they were kept for the pot, some call em poor mans rock salmon but fillets fried in butter with some chunky chips they were the DBs , not often you can complain about a fish that is free!
