Monster PB Wrasse, Pollack and Plaice Fishing May 2021 - 200,000 Subscriber Fishing Video! 

Thank you all so very much for subscribing and being part of this wonderful community. I wish you all good health, happiness and a wonderful day. 😊💙

Well... No, it's your hard work that made this channel. All I do is watch something I enjoy, you are the one consistently putting out videos, you are the one making videos with zero hysteria. You are the unsung hero of this story, good videoing, good editing, consistent production and a very likable person. You did it, don't blame us! 😇👍

As an Angler myself, my heart rate shot through the roof when I saw how fast you made for the net on seeing that Plaice! Lovely fish.

I respect when you doubled your videos over covid to help people, The country really needs you now thank you brother 👊🐐👍

You getting 200k is due to your content and the educational aspect. You and your family are just plain fun to watch. Plus for some of us to live vicariously through your adventures. Congratulations.

_"I think I'll go fishing to celebrate..let's go!"_ Truly, we expect nothing less from you, Mr. F. Locker~ And thank _you_ for taking us along on your trips, introducing us to your wonderful family, and teaching us all so so much!

That Wrasse was only a couple of pounds under the UK record. Brilliant video. Congrats on 200000.Well deserved.

"I think I'll go fishing to celebrate!" really sums up what I like about your style - your unremitting cheerful enthusiasm for what you do! You remind me of the late Steve Irwin in that way, and I say that as the highest possible compliment.

If anyone deserves RU-vid success it’s you. Well done mate on both the PB and the subscriber count!

Congrats on 201k the best fishing show on Utube love it

It's mostly your knowledge, experience, and moral/intestinal fortitude. I ❤️ you for taking us on your adventures!

John, your enthusiasm is infectious! Happy Mother's Day to your wife. :)

Honestly John, at 75 yrs. I've never, ever fished for anything. Yet I'm back watching your channel so I am probably hooked. There's just something about watching you fish that is so calming and I have watched your videos for literally hours and hours since I came across your channel. It's little wonder that you've topped 200,000 because the content is perfect as is the presentation. I believe fisherman say 'Tight lines' so congratulations John and here's to the next 100,000!

Your like a Cheshire Cat today John. Congrats on your 200K subs and pb Ballan !!

You have reawakened my childhood love of fishing. Thank you.

A wonderful day in so many ways mr locker the happiness on your face and in your voice show it all . Thank you for putting up such great content and all the hard work that goes into producing something special every week for us viewers. Live the dream mr locker you deserve it .

I do like the fact that you put fish back into the Sea to live another day, and only take what you need.

You are truly a conservationist, a responsible fisherman. Congratulations on hitting 200K subscribers I am sure, you will hit another milestone in due time!

Living the dream John, you're inspiring us to do same mate 🎣👍🏻 tight lines

I’m English spent 40 years in Australia ,, wasn’t aware of how good the costal fishing is around the UK . 235k subs congratulations taking your passion to what ever level you want

Congratulations on your success and hard work to keep us all happy with fantastic videos every week. Keep safe 🙏

I've watched a couple more of your videos after I've stumbled on your channel, and I have to say I love what you do, you're simply so genuine about your content, and your enthusiasm is infectious. I wish a lot of people learn from you, especially about the by laws that you have in your area and those that you practice, the sea as it is is overexploited and lessons in sustainability from someone like you might actually make a difference for a lot of people. Kudos, friend, and you and the family stay safe.

‘Straight back!’ Respect, sir. Thanks for taking us along.

It boggles my mind that a channel as excellent as yours only has 200k subs. Here's hoping that you get more of the viewers that you deserve!!!

Your smile and enthusiasm are what makes the channel. Congratulations on passing 200k subscribers and your PB Wrasse and that stunning Plaice

Well on a wet Pembrokeshire morning that was a real tonic. Thanks!!

You seem like a very positive and enthusiastic person. Mornings are stunning, the fish are absolute cracking examples and the mornings are gorgeous. I'd give my left (rude thing) to go fishing with you on your boat. I'm sure the enthusiasm is contagious. Since I'm an ocean and half a continent away, your videos will have to do. Great job mate! 200K YES!

absolutely stunning ballan wrasse john. This video had everything from a classic fish locker video. Stunning specimens and of course not forgetting a few Doggies 🦞🦞🐟🐟

Congrats on the Subscriptions bro. You all deserve it. Always cracking content, both entertaining and educational. Even the fish turned to to congratulate you hahahaha

Congrats on your 200k subscribers , If anyone on RU-vid deserves it, then it’s you. This is the coolest channel on RU-vid.. Thanks John for taking us along on your fishing trips. Hope to see you get 300 k soon

Your videos are simply relaxing, educational and fun to watch. Much respect to you, sir!

I love going out on the boat with you. I can actually imagine the weather and smell of the sea .

I’m so glad I came across your channel. I’ve never fished before but it seems like a nice relaxing hobby.

By far the most professional fisherman on the seas

What a fantastic trip out, that wrasse was superb and the pollock too but that plaice, wow. Congrats on the 200.000 plus subscribers. Totally enjoy the lives, you and Hannah deserve it for all your hard you've put into making the Fish locker such a success. Time to chill out a bit now mate and reduce the long hours replying to us all, greatly appreciated but unnecessary. Regards to all the family. Love and thanks

That Ballan Wrasse going back and the footage you got of it swimming down with the camera underwater was brilliant. Congratulations on your PB and keep up the good work 😃

Massive congratulations on the PB and 200k John! What a way to celebrate. Keep making the videos we all love!

You reap what you sow......thoroughly deserved. Congratulations John.

A++ First Congratulation on your 200,000 subscriber milestone, don't thank us, we thank you for the amazing selection of videos on fishing, exploring, underwater, foraging and sharing your family life with us the viewers. When the video started you were grinning like a Cheshire cat and although you wouldn't have known it then my feeling was we are in for something special, you certainly did not disappoint. Starting with Pollack (most anglers would take home) you put them back. Then we had the stunning Ballan Wrasse (also put back) a new p.b. so congratulations again for that. The odd tips that I would never of thought of like securing your lure to the rod. Finally we had that magnificent Plaice (going to your father in law). Viewing just does not get better than that and the smile on your face just got wider and wider. Anyway enough rambling on, just know you bring a lot of warmth into our household and thanks for your brilliant posts.

I cannot think of a more deserving man to reach 200k John you are a natural down to earth man whose charm shines out every time.Whitbys finest.

Just WOW John! Congratulations on 200k subscribers - already 201k a couple of days later! 👍👍 Superp trip out on the bowat (!) 2 very nice Pollock 🐟🐟, and that Wrasse was an absolute Piggy Porker, so congrats again on the PB! 😁😁 And then you go and haul in that stonker of a Plaice! Much jealousy here! One of my favourite eating fish too - it would be interesting to see how Capt. Spargo cooks it! Nice one mate - stay safe & well. 👍👍

Congratulations on 200k subscribers! Wish you and your family the best! 🐟🦞

Congratulations on your milestone! You are a true role model as an conservationist, husband and father; you are very deserving. Onward to 500k.

congratz on the subs milestone very much earned, not just the fishing, not just the foraging, no just the flora and fauna, but a nice family giving us all moments to make us smile xx

Much deserved. Your videos are educational, enthralling and very interesting to the avarage sea angler. But you cook your catches and bring your family into it. This also brings the avarage angler's family into watching as well. No other words to say than brilliant. Well done John. Great times ahead. 👍👍👍👍

Me and my daughters (4 and 9 years old) love your videos. We have a trip planned to Bude in July and I can’t wait to take them rockpooling where thanks to you they will have a great base knowledge of what life they can expect to find 👍

Very well done John and well deserved one of my favourite channels.No two videos are the same it's a new adventure each time and fresh.Now then in the name of all things un holy that Ballan Wrasse christ man what a klonker and the cuckoo wrasse chucked in too.Finished off by plaice and about a pound weight of chips and half a lemon.Graft and effort ultimately will be rewarded you deserve it.Stay safe all the best to family.Regards Tony
