Conger Eels - Deep Sea fishing for Conger Eels on sunken shipwrecks 

Dan Smith - Thankyou for the positive feedback. It’s good to know that what I’m saying is helpful and makes sense.haha. 👍🏻🎣

Victor Booth - Thank you Victor, I am glad you enjoy them and stay safe. 😊👍🏻

adam lee - Thankyou very much Adam, glad you enjoyed it. Wreck fishing at anchor is one of my favourites so you will definitely be seeing more. 😉👍🏻🎣🐟

jay cooke - He was really going for it wasn’t he!! It’s not hard to see why some people are really intimidated by them. I think they’re great fun to catch. 👍🏻🎣

Amos Hagan - One of my favourites to mate. Cracking fun!!!👍🏻🎣

- There's nothing to be scared about so long as you are calm and you know what you're doing. Its when you panic that you make mistakes. :D

​@@TheFishLockerGreat videos John, I've been fishing since a child and I'm still learning a lot off you. We caught two large ones in rapid succession within 20 minutes in a v. small boat with four occupants, no T-bars, mayhem ensued with copious slime, had no choice but to head back in. Wicklow Town Bay Ireland. Keep her salty!

Sparkey - Haha. I can imagine the situation. Right. Now WTF do we do with them? 😆Haha. Tight lines bud.

Suellen Gonçalves - Pesca Esportiva - Thankyou very much. I am truly blessed to live where I do. I’ve checked out your channel. Great stuff. I’ve subscribed 👍🏻🎣

Kyle Chilcott - Glad to hear it mate. Every day is a school day. You should never stop learning. 👍🏻🎣

Indeed it is :) well the boat trip was a success, now have a nice list for some LRF gear to try :) all new to the light side of fishing should be intresting 🎣🐟

Kyle Chilcott - Just because it’s light gear doesn’t mean you’ll just be catching small fish. 😉🎣

Indeed thats true but will be alot diffrent too weights n big baits 😍

Stunning aren’t they. 😊

kanchour16 - Thankyou very much. If you like this video you will really enjoy the Pollack, ling and conger one 😉👍🏻🎣

co0ter1 - Welcome to the channel. I’m glad to see you’re enjoying the content. Please, when you say quite different from others you’ve seen, what do you mean? I have started creating some playlists that explain the different tackle I use -pros/cons and uses. And also a playlist for the “small boat owner/user” where I explain how to anchor a wreck etc. ( this is a working progress and will have more vids in the coming week ) Also, in the rig making playlist I show my preferred rigs - eg For conger. 😉👍🏻🎣 I hope they are useful to you. Tight lines. 😊👍🏻🎣🛥🐟

I only really watch Graham for boat fishing, by different I mean that he tends to fish straight on the bottom whereas you tend to bump along and drift. I only recently got a small dinghy this year, something that I can put on the roof rack. I live in Leicester but have a sister in Lepe and she used to live in Falmouth. I have always fished these places from the shore,I got the bug for sea fishing whilst living in Cardiff for about 7 years. Always fished from shore though and never been on a boat, that is why you and Graham's channels interest me. Ideally I would like to get a boat about 12 foot in the future, something that will fit in a lock up garage and be trailered South.The dinghy is a taster for me and something to acquire a bit of kit with.

co0ter1 - Cool. I see how you mean. I tend to tailor my fishing to the conditions. Big tides and strong currents are better for drift fishing and lures/livebaits. Small tides and weak currents are best for anchoring. The boat I have now is a 16ft Orkney, the one before was a 14ft Orkney. Both great boats but the extra 2ft really make a massive difference. Good idea though to start small and learn the skills before investing lots of money. The small boat owner user vids I’m making should be of use to you. 👍🏻🎣🛥

Atlantic Angling Productions - I’m planning a shore conger trip soon. Are you not tempted to try a trip for one offshore? 👍🏻🎣

The Fish Locker Going on a species trip aboard Lo Kie in mid- August so maybe get one then depending on what we do :)

Atlantic Angling Productions - You’ll have a fantastic time with Kieran. He’s a great angler and really knows how to find the fish. 👍🏻🎣

Gordon Burns - I’m really glad you’re enjoying the videos. I have another boat one going up very soon. I am originally from Whitby in North Yorkshire but have lived and worked all over so my accent is a little varied now. But good ear. Tight lines mate. 👍🏻🎣😉

Daniel Macdonald - Thanks Daniel. Glad you liked it. If this is your type of thing then there should be a few more videos you’ll like in the “Boat fishing” playlist. 😉👍🏻🎣🐟🛥

@@TheFishLocker thanks will be checking them out !!

- You really are firing through the videos aren't you!! I think we have around 130 on this channel. So given they're usually 20-25 mins long you've got around 54 hours solid viewing time. :D Or 2 hours a day for a month!!

Barry C - Aye, at the odd point I was a bit out of breath.haha. Great fun.👍🏻🎣

- Glad you enjoyed it Neil. I've tried a fish stew with conger and it wasn't for me. Haha.

Andy Gouriet - It was a great session. I said more than “Oh no!!” Off camera haha. I have eaten pout before years ago. There is a fair bit of meat on the big ones. But as I said, I prefer to use them as bait. 👍🏻🎣

- You should see one of my recent wrecking videos. That conger could have swallowed these whole!! 😆

leonard whelehan - He was a brute wasn’t he. 👍🏻🎣

They are invaluable. 😊

Dave B - It’s just a standard go pro. I think this vid was the hero 5 Black with no mic.

- Yes. The change in pressure often effects many areas of their bodies.

Stephen Jones - Good old fashioned research. Trawling through old charts and online sites to find wrecks and then go and check them out on the boat. 😉👍🏻🎣🐟

- You are right in that there is only 1 way to learn. They will come out a certain distance but its best to be close to the wreckage. It also depends on wether that are hungry!! haha.

Bids not bids

VIDS!

Now then Morris how's it going? Glad you enjoyed the video mate. Ive got a couple of good conger ones on the channel. They are easier to deal with once they get over 30lb IMO. Small ones are a pain in the bum.

Sam GoPro - Haha. If you liked that video then I have a few more you will absolutely love!! Have a look in my “Boat fishing” playlist. 😉 My boat is an Orkney 520. 👍🏻🎣🛥🐟😬

@@TheFishLocker I have been watching a few of your videos. Really enjoying them. Keep up the good work. Looking forward to watching more. 🎣🎣🎣

Sam GoPro - Thats awesome. Really glad you’re enjoying the content. What type of vids do you prefer? Boat fishing ones?

1977fuzzedup - It depends, you have to match the weight with the conditions. Deeper water/stronger tide/faster drift means heavier jig needed. On that day I was in 180ish ft with a slow run of tide so 100g was ok.

The Fish Locker excellent, cheers for the reply. Ille give them a try ;)

The one that got away?!?

3F with GF - Those cuckoo wrasse are stunning fish. All of our wrasse species are good looking fish. I’ve checked out your channel, I love catching bluegills and sunfish. Such pretty fish also. Subscribed. 👍🏻🎣

- Thank you very much.

Gordi Drew - Thankyou very much. If you liked this vid I have a couple of others you’ll really enjoy. Wreck fishing at anchor is one of my favourites. The rods were Ugly stik GX-2’s - Here is a more in depth explanation of them. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-JRmZg9LaJ5o.html

Gordi Drew - The reels were either a daiwa SL30sh ( the small one ) or a shimano tld20A. Each coupled with different class rods. Here is another vid that you might enjoy targeting eels and other big wreck fish. 😉👍🏻🎣🐟 ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-5dJejBXoaXo.html

Well that's good to know cause I use that rod and both those reels for work keep up the good work

Gordi Drew - For work? What do you do? I think I want your job.haha. 🤣👍🏻🎣

The Fish Locker thank you!

Jackson Baumgart Outdoors - I know some people who eat them and in other countries around the Mediterranean they are fished commercially for food, but I just catch them for fun. 👍🏻🎣

Jackson Baumgart Outdoors - Great channel Jackson I love fishing for Pike and Perch here in the Uk. I’ve subscribed. 👍🏻🎣

Thanks! I got ya back!

Great vidsJohn , very informative. But what b/s line do you recommend for wreck fishing.
