RARE CATCH!!! Hauling the Fish Locker Lobster and Crab pots July 2023 | The Fish Locker 

I had no idea about the V cut in lobsters before i watched your vids. gained a lot of knowledge from your videos thank you John

Good to see signs of a healthy sustainable ecosystem. Great video.

I think you deserve a medal, about the size of a frying pan, for dealing with those congers so well. As always, captivating and great entertainment, thank you so very much. M

Your videos always help me when I'm homesick for the coast and the ocean. Thank you for all you do!

Hi John Love this and all your videos , I have introduced my 2 grandsons (4 &6) to the joys of these interesting, educational and very enjoyable videos. Take very good care .Thanks Mike

I'm bringing my little family to Cornwall next week. You've inspired me to have a little dabble while I'm there. Fingers crossed, keep up the good work!!

great video john!! missing the coastal foraging and beach cook-ups! 💪🏼

John, I always enjoy the crab😮/lobster pot videos. (My favorite is foraging though.) However, today's video was a lot of fun to see. Absolutely love that pink lobster. Beautiful coloring. I also like the sides of the tail for the genetic mutation lobster. The conger eel is neat, but not something I would want to handle. I love that you are able to use the wrasse and second eel for your bait! Thanks for taking us along on your adventures!! All the best to the Fish Locker family!! ❤

Everybody loves the pot draws. Kudos, John!

'Nice calm day' you picked mate. At least it gave you the opportunity to get out & check your pots & what an interesting mixture from the unusual lobster to the 2 legal boys Plus two eels. Looks like you had just enough time before scooting back to shore. Great video again thanks John, as usual but great viewing, Regards to all the family as well, cheers, Don from South Aust.

The way the camera is positioned when going thru the pots is awesome. Makes you feel like your on the boat great job sir keep it up.

Enjoyed as always John,hope you enjoyed the 2 lobsters 🦞.

Look at the guns all this dude… Hell yeah John, you’re kicking ass! Keep hand pulling those traps

I find these vids to be very relaxing.The sound of the water, the sea-scape and interesting information. And the beautiful sea animals.

I am really getting into watching your videos. I learn something new every time. thanks again to the Anstey Sea Anglers for introducing me to your videos.

John ! Not just hauling pots, your videos are an education. Could it be that apart from the conga's, that your change of location could be the reason for the varied colour lobsters ie Maybe their diet? or is their more fresh water running in ?Could that be a reason. Sounds silly but when you chute a different location and you catch those,their must be a reason. Anyway thankyou once again,so happy to have found your channel....❤

this is why i love this channel awesome always dreat content

Hi John, before I watch this video I want to tell you I just watched a podcast video with a guy who makes really good videos about fishing, positive energy and all things good. You kept that quiet! Anyway it was fantastic! I didn't think it was possible to admire you more than I already did. That story about the youngster you took out fishing was quite something.

Excellent catch there. Lots of nice things in the pots today!

What I love about your vids is the depth of your knowledge that you give with engaging humour John 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Beautiful lobsters! 👍 Caught my first ever lobster snorkelling yesterday. No measure with me but think it was just slightly undersize with only one battered claw. Let it go but it was exhilarating! Thank you for all the inspiration. Mark

It‘s always a delight seeing one of your videos pop up. Keep up the good work!

Really enjoyed the video John 😀Must have been a very fun haul!! I can't remember seeing a european lobster with the white and green colour before so that was fun to watch.I'm glad that there was an opening in the weather condition so you were able to haul your pots.I'ts always exiting to see what is in your pots.Have a great day😀

Love hearing about mutations and pigments. That's why I'm doing a biology degree and you actually inspired me John, so thanks mate 👍

Nice pair of lobsters I was already cooking them in my mind 😂

That little lobster was a beautiful colour and definitely a first seeing congers in the pots

wow, love the exotic colours in those lobsters this time, fantastic to see

I’ve got some pots i need to get back into it. That’s what’s good about your videos. It gets people encouraged to get out.

Brilliant John , quite an eventful uneventful day and extremely interesting. If only conga's ....da da da da daaaaa da oi! lol knew they were climbing into the pot for later bait they might not . The baby 'bino hopefully gets a long happy life, might even be famous in one of your books of educational thingamijigs. Thanks for a great trip. 👍

Thank you John, a joy to see. My best to you and yours.

Informative as always. Great video 😊

That sunrise😲😍

Always enjoy your videos John.. thanks

Always enjoy your videos, Mate! Joy and good health from Texas

Wonderful footage 😀

Enjoyable video as always. You never know what you will find

Great video, every time I've been fishing this month I've blanked but watching your videos always gives me hope, hoping ill get the luck you get 😂

Great video as always 👍 Keep up the good work pal 👍

Hello John! I love your channel! It is always interesting. I have never been fishing and have a shellfish allergy, but STILL love your content. Thank you for sharing your passions and your family with us. ❤

What a neat lobster

Looks like an interesting and successful trip 😃🍻

Man!!! You about made me break my phone 😅😅😅 that monster snake came out of that pod it looked like it was about to come through the camera 😂😂😂 I straight screamed and tossed my phone away lmfao

Loved the fancy dress spider crab, and of course seeing all the interesting colorations of lobsters... and always, the sea. Thanks for the video, take care, be well

These videos are always nice but the kitchen is my favorite lol

Oooo that was a Nasty angry big eel 😂. Great video again John 👍

Anyone else just listen and fall asleep. ❤❤

Crackin' vids...love seeing your content 👍🏼

Hello John, your videos are always so interesting. Thank you😀 and all the best to you.

I appreciate the lobster color discussion ...

Another cracking video,,, well done lad 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Another awesome video. Thank you very much.

That lobster was amazing! You were talking about the pure blue ones, we have a species of crayfish in my area called cambarus monongalensis( or simply the blue crayfish), that look like small royal blue lobsters. They're kind of rare in my area, but go a little north and they're actually not too hard to find if you're willing to look. They like to hide in the extra hard to get to spots LOL. Great video and can't wait for more! As always I'm jealous and would love to love a life on the sea like you. Keep up the good work!

A interesting haul John, white pink and some very dark blue lobsters, so when the weather improves, a conger fishing trip 🤓

Oh My God💪,You Have today Very Intresting Cath Bro💯😉🍀👍

After watching you haul your pots, I think my only chance at winning an arm wrestle with you would be just after 😂

Cracking video John ,some lovely marked lobbies there mate

Thanks John, I always enjoy watching you pull your pots, some wonderful coloured Lobsters😃

Nice catch.

Thanks John. I enjoy EVERY pot run, it NEVER gets old. Would so enjoy some fresh lobster today, to bad I'm not in your neighborhood, hopefully some day. Really enjoyed the various lobsters today. That rare one was beautifully colored. Happy you posted the photo of him at the end. His tail, like a peacock, made him stand out among the others. That flash of blue sure elevated him above the rest. My best to the family, and safe sailing home, may it always be so.

Great show John!!

Great as per normal weather a bit choppy nice pair of lobsters 🦞 xx

Thank you. Always interesting.👍

Always a pleasure watching your videos John. Never known conger eels in pots before

Great video as always. Not just entertaining but so educational. Top class bro. Tight lines 🎣🎣🎣

Lovely shade of blue indeed John, I finally have two fresh aquariums of my own. The ocean has my respect cause keeping my fish healthy has proven quite challenging 😊.

Brilliant Video. Thank you John

Thank you, John, I know we all look forward to your uploads, regards to the family, greetings from Cyprus. 🦞🦞🦀🦀😎😎

Another great show

brilliant as usual john

Awesome John, awesome meal coming u & family way .Happy catching from Australia Nick

Thanx there john good stream enjoy them lobsters best wishes to all

I had no idea the eels had freaking teeeeeeeeth!!!!! Wowwwww

Another excellent narrative , with a view into the color variations of Lobsters,,, Thank You

That rare one looked like it had seen a ghost. 😂

Great vid my friend!

Whey there's quite a bit of knowledge shared in this episode John didn't realise you could pull the boat under when your trying to steam out a stuck pot. Looked like those Congas were ready to have a chew I don't think I'd stick my hand in there either lol. Still loving the content and looking forward to the next 👍

Cheers for that learn a lesson everytime

Despite the conditions you managed a couple of eaters. Liked that lobster.

I appreciate you.

I am impressed by all the lobsters you catch. even though you fish on such depth. Allthough most of them seem to be undersized. When I was little, my dad used to fish for lobsters. We had 5 old-fashioned wooden barrel shaped pots, and the most we got in a season was 7. all of them keepers. But we used to get much more crabs. once we got 29 crabs and a lobster in one pot. My dad tried with newer types of pots. Square ones, soccer round ones, the kind you use, but none of them fished nearly as well as the old wooden Barrel Shaped ones. those ones never got stuck on the bottom either. But they were quite heavy to haul. Still, it sadly is impossible to find new ones nowadays. Nobody makes them anymore.

Every day is a learning day john 👍

Good ride with my friend

yes sir. thank you.

Out bright an' early...👍👍👍

Always a cool learning adventure watching your videos. I am not sure I could handle the waves you experienced this trip. I would most like be the chum king over the side. Have fun

Nice pots John

As ever top content with loads of info

Hi John. Have you ever been to Nova Scotia? Your videos make me miss it so much. Love your channel! 💕🇨🇦

Great video 🤙

Looks yummy to me 😁

I was surprised to see you using fresh bait in these pots.

Be eaten?As a child we would eat eels,but that was in USA I believe caught in Long Island Sound!Love seeing what you get in your pots

John have you heard about catching scallops in crab pots using disco lights!? Would love to see an experiment

I'd call that a successful day

Yummy I'll be there for supper 😅

Like and enjoy 👍🍀🎣🍀👍 Greetings from Germany 👍🍀🎣🍀👍

I doubt its anything new to anyone but in poole when we get an eel we just grab it with a towel turn it on its back and slide ur other hand from its head to its back and it just goes to sleep. Makes it well easy to get the hooks out

Good morning. I have been wondering if you could address how much fuel and provisions go into one of these hauls, i.e. how much does it cost for a trip? I can't imagine that it is cost effective, though the therapeutics must make it all worthwhile. Thanks.

Interesting catch! James needs to grow up fast so he can help papa with hauling the pots. It looks like a hell of a workout if you have to do it all yourself.

Cool vid mate
