Gday mate would love to know what you think of my little Chanel cheers

@@southcoastkids5397 good on you dude...

Nice couple

😊

- We are the Fish Lockers. 😊 It will bite me one day and I'll do it by accident when its somewhere serious. Haha.

me too lmao at Mrs. Fishlocker and Fishlocker Jr

Lol

- I have honestly been waiting since before he was born to teach him these things. Teaching him about the world has been one of my life true joys 😊

Respect to both comments love the both I am hoping more folk do this now it's the best way off learning watching and doing 👍👍👍😜🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🦄🎣😁🤞✌️

Totally agree. Besides the little guy Mr. Fishlocker teaching us, no matter where we are (Russia for example)), about responsible fishing and foraging.

- So very few people do. If you think any of your friends would enjoy the video please share it on with them 😊

Kelly Ralston - Thank you Kelly, I am really glad that you are enjoying our content and finding it informative. We do our very best to share what we know and show how we do things sustainably. Hopefully it will help others to learn and take an interest in the natural world around them. Best wishes and have a lovely day 😊🎣🦞💙

@@TheFishLocker you would make an excellent hunter. If you're ever in Canada, I'd like to have a pint with you and swap some Hunter/Gatherer stories.

- I am glad you enjoy it, I think so too. 😊

- You were watching whilst flying? I think I have been travelling with the wrong airlines if you can watch youtube whilst in the air!! Haha.

@@TheFishLocker yes! Cost a couple of dollars but worth it. Flying Southwest to Virginia, USA.

- Thank you, I do hope that it transfers across in our videos. Never take more than you need and always treat the natural world with respect and appreciation. 😊

The Fish Locker OMG I’m such a fan!!! I’m from the Philippines 😊

- Haha. I am truly so happy that our videos are serving as educational content for people. 😊

- I will give that a look later. 😊

Definitely worth a look those guys are superheros 💚

- Thank you, and I am very glad to hear you are enjoying the atmosphere the content in our videos. Welcome to our channel. 😊👍🏻🦞🐚

- It is our pleasure. I hope she is ok now. 😊

- It is our pleasure, I am glad that you could join us. 😊

- Thank you. People gave that as constructive feedback from our last video so I tried it out. I am glad you think it works well. It is all a learning experience. 😊

- It is our pleasure Roxie. I am glad that you could join us and have a lovely day 😊

- I've been using hair conditioner and warm water? Are there any brands or type you would recommend as an example?

In general any mild soap, I dont have any soap I use in particular, but have found that the intimate soaps are milder on the skin, and maybe a tiny bit more slippary than normaly bodywash. General rule in freediving as I know is mild soap without perfume. Most people use a variety of intimate soaps, both because of the skincare as some have reactions because of the perfume, and because they say they're more "slimey" so it takes less soap.

@@TheFishLocker ive found johnson&johnson baby shampoo is fantastic for it, plus good on your skin after.

The Fish Locker I’ve seen YBS from Australia recommend Baby Shampoo

@@TheFishLocker when I go spearfishing I use a ph neutral shampoo, kind on sea and the skin

- I am glad we can share this with you. 😊

@@TheFishLocker me too, positive energy all the way, keep it up.

RU-vid algorithms. 😏

- I'm assuming that is a game? A few people have mentioned animal crossing to me now. Haha.

Haha he definitely isn't! He's a star!

- Chris, we are simply sharing what we love doing. Best wishes to you and the family mate and take care. 😊

- That is what I thought, though she was size so I expect she was either part of a catch where they had too many, or she was carrying eggs. Either way she is better off now. She can still feed a little as she has the finger type legs at the front but she can't defend herself or catch/chop up prey.

- We received feedback from the last video of this type - so I made changes. Its all a learning experience.

Yeah i love hearing what you were thinking and doing. But the part with the crabs was missing. Why did he not keep them. I love me some crab but i don’t see spider crabs where i live

- Thank you Ann. I truly hope that this teaches him a love and appreciation for the world outdoors. 😊

@@TheFishLocker My father took me to the creeks and rivers of the Pacific northwest where I grew up. I learned alot not even realizing it. The periwinkles there are black. Berries and salmon were abundant then. Your waters are beautiful and filled with life. Enjoy!😊

- I am so glad that you have found our channel as you share our passion and love for nature. Yes, we do eat crabs and lobsters - but we also show them compassion - as we do all living things. 😊 Best wishes to you Kittie and have a lovely day. 😊

- I'm glad that you think so Steve. It truly is our pleasure to share our videos with you. Best wishes and stay safe my friend. 😊

- He is just a sweetheart isn't he. 😊

- Thank you Rodney, I do truly hope that people adopt our ethos and approach to sustainable foraging. I do feel it is the best way. 😊👍🏻🦞🐟🌿

- He is such a little sweetheart isn’t he. 😊💙

@@TheFishLocker yes Sir, he certainly is. You and Mrs Fish Locker are extremely blessed.

- Glad you enjoyed the video, I do like those cuttles. Such attitude and incredible colours on them 😊

- Thank you. I think id be ok with the field trips but not sure I'm really a "classroom" kinda guy.

- The older I get the more I have learned to take pleasure in the smaller things. This is my idea of a perfect day. 😊👍🏻💙

- Thank you Chris, I am glad that it worked well. People made the suggestion from our last video so I gave it a try. 😊

- I have been waiting since before he was born to be able to teach him these things and it is truly one of the most joyful and rewarding things I have ever done in my life. He is my absolute joy and I am so proud of him. 😊

- Thanks Fred, James really is a smart cookie. He even taught me something about a narwhal he learned the other day. Haha. He'll be taking over the show before long. 😊

@@TheFishLocker So right here for Fish Locker: Next Gen (in a few years time, maybe) ;)

- I am very glad to hear that you enjoyed the video Sandie. We have been planning these types of videos for months but have been stuck with lockdown and bad weather - so Im glad you are enjoying them. Welcome to our channel and have a lovely day 😊

- Thank you very much. I also love the underwater video. We have been planning these types of videos for months so its great to finally get them out there. 😊

- Excellent. I'm glad to hear you're getting the notifications 😊

- I am very sorry to hear that you have such challenges but I am very glad that we may help you in any way to enjoy things. 😊

- Well done. That is a great lobster and black bream are delicious. Take care my friend 😊

- She is wonderful isn't she. 😊

- Aye mate it saddened me to see her suffering like that. Hopefully no she will be better off. The scallops were delicious, I agree - they don't need much added flavourings do they.

- Its our pleasure Chuck, I felt very sad for her also. I can only hope that some type of accident has befallen that poor lobster somewhere along the line. I expect that she has been kept in a store pot at some point and has escaped. Possibly she was part of an unlicensed fishermans catch and they've been rumbled by the fisheries authority and ditched her over the side sharpish. Either way she is better off now. 😊

- The abundance and diversity on the south coast of the UK truly is breathtaking isn’t it 😊🦞🐟🌿💙

- I am glad that you enjoyed the video Bonnie, I am glad that you could join us. 😊

- Thank you very much. I also love lime and chilli as a combo. 😊

- I can't wait to hear how you get on. The shores around Ireland always seem so plentiful!! 😊

@@TheFishLocker I'll keep you posted 👍👍

- They are cool aren’t they. 😊🦀

- Thank you Erica, we are simply sharing what we love doing. I am glad that you enjoyed the video. 😊

- I agree Colin. Its come from a non commercial fisherman. Possibly its been carrying eggs and they've taped her and put her in a store pot and she's escaped? Or she's been part of an unlicensed haul where they've had too many onboard and been rumbled - so tossed her sharpish? Either way I hope she is better off now. 😊

- Oow, that’s risky with a Moray. They are hellish thing when annoyed. I stay away!!

- I am glad to hear it. 😊

- It is our pleasure Dermot. 😊

- Thank you Megan, he is such a sweetheart isn't he. 😊

- Hi Jacob, thank you very much. Glad you're digging the content. We are planning many more and as I have said. When things are safer I will e doing some camping style ones. 😊 Take care.

- Thank you Drew and welcome to our channel. I do love the underwater stuff. We have some other cracking underwater vids if thats your thing? Take care and best wishes to you and your family. 😊

- I really enjoy the family videos also. We are simply sharing what we love doing. 😊

- That sounds pretty good to me mate. I'll see you there. Haha

- Haha. The honesty of a child.

- That is wonderful Mackenzie, I am so glad that we are able to help you find peace. 😊

- Thank you, it was a comment people made from our last video so I gave it a try. I’m glad it works. 😊👍🏻

- People mentioned about voice over in the last vid so I gave it a go. Glad you liked it. That hole was just too dark. If I had had a torch I could have gotten it out. By the time I got in there it was literally pitch black.

@@TheFishLocker Yes you have to be really careful diving into dark places, especially on your own. I dived into a hole in the side of the plating of the Bessemer City, a wreck near St Ives. I was a novice/young diver and got exited because I thought I had spied the ships bell submerged in the sand. It turned out to be a green plastic bucket, but when I tried to back out of the hole my tank kept catching on the top. I managed not to panic and It took me about 10 minutes to figure it out and I released air from my ABLJ so I sank enough to back up. All though I didn't know it at the time, my experienced dive 'buddy' was right behind me seeing how I would handle it. Back in the boat he called me an idiot and said you won't do that again will you lol. And I never went in anywhere again without letting my buddy know. 😇

- Yes, the type of open cell spearfishing suit I use is easier to put on if you use a lube. You can buy "wetsuit lube" but I personally have just been using hair conditioner mixed with warm water. Here is a link just to show I'm not making it up. haha. www.spearoblog.com/the-art-of-lube-secrets-to-put-on-your-wetsuit/

its called anal lube

The Fish Locker What I personally find the easiest way to get wetsuits on is wearing a Speedo fastskin bodysuit underneath it, do recommend it. The wetsuit tends to slip over no matter how damp both the wetsuit and swimsuit are and it really doesn’t negate the effects of the wetsuit, whatsoever. Don’t know if anyone other than me does it though. I sort of discovered it by accident. Used to be a professional swimmer and had loads of competitive swimsuits lying around. Had the idea after waddling around shore for 15 minutes trying to get the crotch area of the wetsuit in place like a bloody Benny Hill skit. Do recommend pro swimming suits underneath wetsuits.

- Thank you Donnie, my wife is called Hannah. We love that you enjoy our videos and could join us all on our beach adventure. 😊

- 😊

- Its not hard to see why we love where we live is it. 😊

- I think it was more likely that he was guarding his girlfriend 😉💙🦞

- Thank you Mark. I'm glad that you are enjoying our content. Take it easy mate 😊

- Our pleasure Colin. 😊

- No that would be the issue. They are hellish good but a little impractical for some things. 😉

- Something has happened somewhere along the line to leave her with that tape on. Either she's been taped and put in a keep pot and escaped, or someone has had too many onboard and seen a fisheries officer and tossed her back sharpish. Either way its not good. Likely its been an unlicensed fisherman. Commercial guys use elastic bands not tape usually. 😊

@@TheFishLocker I think they make biodegradable bands now in case something like this happens.

Scallops literally take a minute. But overcooking them a little won’t hurt you, it just makes them a little chewy. 😊

- It I sour pleasure Daryl. I am glad that you are enjoying the videos. 😊

- It is usually that they tape their claws and keep them in a trap and they escape. Unlicensed fishermen can only keep 2 per day, so they maybe saw an enforcement officer and threw it back. It could have escaped from a keep pot? Either way its a slow agony for the lobster isn't it.

@@TheFishLocker im glad you set it free mate

The Fish Locker thanks! I’m glad there are people like you to remove it. Taping them like that seems like a really cruel thing to do to an animal

- There are a couple of possible scenarios that I can see. Either she has been carrying eggs and has been taped and stored in a keep pot but escaped. Or she has been part of an unlicensed fishermans catch and they have been rumbled for something and she's been tossed overboard sharpish. Either way she is better off now. 😊

- I am glad that our videos can help to build your confidence with water and the sea. 😊👍🏻

- Thank you very much, it is our pleasure. 😊

- Haha. No it is not. Speaking to a few other guys I think the issue is not enough “ahem” lube 😳 haha. I went again yesterday and absolutely lathered myself and it slid on no problem. 👍🏻😁

- We do not share our foraging locations Rory or they would simply get abused. I hope you understand. 😊

@@TheFishLocker absolutely understand, thanks for the reply. Keep doing what you're doing!

- It is our pleasure Al. Take care mate. 😊

- It is our pleasure Rosemary. We are simply sharing the range of our passions. I understand there are some channels out there that only have the capacity for one type of thing. But I hope that is what sets us apart. 😊

- Thank you David. I only hope something accidental has happened somewhere along the line with this lobster. Other possible scenarios are that she has been taped and kept in a keep pot and escaped. It is illegal to land a berried lobster so potentially she had eggs and someone taped her up and kept her in a pot until she had dropped her eggs but she's escaped? Or an unlicensed guy has had too many onboard and been rumbled to tossed one sharpish? Who know? Either way. I hope she's better off now. 😊

- Or tequila?

- It is our pleasure. I am glad that you enjoyed joining us. 😊👍🏻🦞🐚

The Fish Locker Always sir! Thank you for taking us along.

- Thank you very much. I have literally been waiting since before he was born to teach him these things. Take care mate and have a good one 😊

- It saddened me to. I think the same as you as to how she likely came to be banded. She’s better off now anyway. 😊👍🏻🦞

He's the real star of the show!!

- They were stunning Garry. 😊
