Shark Fishing in the English Channel - FishLocker Sea Fishing UK Tope | The FishLocker 

It is my pleasure 😊💙

Thank you Keith. 😊

Thank you. I do love my sea fishing. 😊

They are great fun to catch 👍🏻🦈

Aye mate, the one we lost on the big rod was a really big one 200lb+ but the Tope were good fun on the light gear. 😊

Any time Lisa. 😊

Glad you enjoyed it mate. 👍🏻😊

😊

Dave has been down for a few days and we had a blast chasing fish. 😊

Thank you Jake. Best wishes to you and yours sir. 😊

Thank you Paul.

They are great fun aren’t they. 😊👍🏻🦈

Thank you. 👍🏻

Exciting stuff isn’t it. 🤣

Mate that is wonderful to hear and I hope you enjoy yourself. Best wishes mate and take care. 😊

We had a great day just enjoying the conditions and having a good old fishing natter. 😊

Thank you very much Richard. 😊

Cheers Phil. 😊👍🏻

Cheers mate 😊

Aye mate, but not ever one is a winner. We still had a god day afloat 😊

Thanks mate, we had a good bash at the Tope though and it was a lovely day at sea. 😊

I am glad to hear you’re enjoying the videos Rob and welcome to our channel. 😊👍🏻

Haha. Juggling is all part of the circus. 🤣

It was a fine day mate, just didn’t manage to keep hold of the big one sadly. 🤷🏻‍♂️🦈

Welcome to the channel Stuart. 😊🦈

Thank you Neil.

Cheers mate. Tight lines. 👍🏻🎣

Dave is an absolute star. I’m looking to put him onto some fish when he comes down my way soon. 😊👍🏻

Man that must be AWESOME!!!!

Wonderful wasn’t it. 💙

Glad you enjoyed it mate. 😊👍🏻🦈

I’m sure if you look back to our earlier ones you will find some you haven’t watched.

It is my pleasure. Take care and have a wonderful day 😉🎣

Glad you enjoyed it Nick. 😊

I do plan to target them in the coming weeks, I am just conscious to only target them when they are not pregnant. Other people sadly don’t share our moral values. 🤷🏻‍♂️🦈

@@TheFishLocker the fish stocks of all species are taking a hammering, anything we can do to preserve the stocks, a leaf out of are freshwater cousins should be are goal.

Just trying to keep things interesting. 😊👍🏻

Aye mate we had a fine day on the Tope. Its great when you can get together with likeminded anglers. 😊

Thank you very much. 👍🏻🦈

Thank you very much mate. The editing is something that I am constantly having to work on, some videos flow really well and others I really do worry about - so Im glad to hear you are enjoying them. Take care bud and good luck with them cuttle fish. 😉🐙

@@TheFishLocker thanks John!! FYI.. that was me holding that gargantuan squid 🦑 on the small boat fishing page! I can catch them easily enough! Just got to work on their cousins! 😂

It's not a bad old spot is it. 😉

I have never eaten Thresher shark. Here in the UK shark fishing is 99% catch and release. 😊

Thanks Paul, I like Dave he’s a great lad. Look forward to fishing with him again down my way. 😊👍🏻

Thank you Paul … fingers crossed you’ll see some more teamwork in the foreseeable future ✌🏻

I would love to come over to your waters and cast a line at some point. 😊

Guitar fish are wonderful creatures aren't they. 😊

They are great fish for a bit of sport aren't they. 😊

Thanks mate. I talked with Dave quite a bit about you actually. I’m really sorry to hear about the trouble you were having with that bloke. Really bang out of order. Chin up mate. 👍🏻

Thankyou mate! Seems to be part and parcel of doing live feeds! All sorted now though. Thankyou!

We bring the other rods in once we are sure the fish is properly hooked or at least big enough that it may prove a challenge 😉🦈

Aye mate. I was just talking to Jason today about looking for some of the big ones in the coming month. Just need some calmer weather. 🤷🏻‍♂️🦈

@@TheFishLocker the target this year is to break that 500lbs threshold. It’s going to take some doing mate but Nothing ventured nothing gained 🤞 il give you a call at some point tomorrow about the road trip we discussed on our last call 👍🏻

@@thesolentwarrior584 - Aye mate. Any time after 0800 is good. 👍🏻

It is our pleasure Kay. I am glad that you enjoy them. 😊

Thank you Stephen. 👍🏻🦈

Cheers Mal. 😉👍🏻

Exactly my thoughts John. Glad you could join us mate. 😊

You can very easily get bitten yes. As I say in the video, if you disrespect them they will get you. 🤣

Haha. Some people with such hard line views are not interested in a 2 way conversation. Sadly their radio is stuck on “transmit only”.

@@TheFishLocker Yup, most people these days! I scuba dive a lot and in that circle I have to keep to myself that I also do a bit of spearfishing here and there, hehe.

Cheers Tim. 😊

@@TheFishLocker Hi John just a quick question. What's the best advertisement for selling my colvic sea hunter 22' Regards Tim Cook

Aye mate, no one wins them all. But I hope this shows by diversifying a little you can still catch fish. 👍🏻

Sounds like a hard day at sea mate.

😉

Thank you. 👍🏻

Thank you.

Thank you Mrs J. Have a lovely day. 😊👍🏻

@@TheFishLocker thank you! You as well! 🤗

Cheers mate. 😊

Yes it sure can. 👍🏻

Down the SW it’s been terrible. 🤷🏻‍♂️

@@TheFishLocker Don't get out as often as I would like due to health issues John, but a few of us managed to get out on the Shingle East of the Tamar on Friday - the water was boiling with Mackerel chasing baitfish up onto the shore - first I have seen this year. Had 6 nice ones for the pan, put a few Joeys back, and my mate had a coule of Bass. One went cleanly back, one at 48cms for tea!

This just goes to show that our videos are honest David. Not every one is a winner. Sometimes you don't catch what you wanted but if you use your head and mix it up a bit you can still have some good fishing. 😊

Haha. You match the tackle to the fish you’re most likely to catch 😉

Do you really mean 70ft? 🤔🤣

@@TheFishLocker 😂 you know how us men exaggerate about lengths 😂 😂

Cheers Charlie. 👍🏻🦈

Best of luck on the Cod mate. 👍🏻

They are great fun when nothing else is biting aren’t they. 😊👍🏻

@@TheFishLocker feels like ours are larger on average, or maybe I just fish spots with big ones..

Thank you. 😊

Thank you Robert. 😊

They eat a lot of things regardless of species or size.

Thank you Andrew 😊

Sounds like some cracking fishing.

I think Tope were commercially caught here until recently.

Mackerel are non existent down here this year.

Need to stop these commercial fishing vessels pillaging the seas around our coast! I find it disgusting that EU are allowed to just rape the sea, they even are allowed to catch Bluefin Tuna by the thousands of tonnes... yet we can't keep a single fish? Something drastically wrong with that scenario! "Since 2016 the EU share of the international quota for bluefin tuna has increased by 73 per cent from 11,200 tonnes to 19,360 tonnes" newspaper article quote.... then you get this for us in the uk.. legislation, the country does not have quota for eastern bluefin tuna and no commercial U.K. vessels are authorized to land catches of this stock. Any bluefin tuna caught by any U.K. vessel must be returned to the sea, alive and unharmed to the greatest extent possible.

Worlds gone mad!! 🤷🏻‍♂️

Glad you enjoyed it Stan. 😊

Thank you. 😊🦈

Ahh its part of fishing mate. You win some you lose some 🤷🏻‍♂️

Thanks 👍🏻

Hello.

Fine Brill I see you’ve had. 👌🏻

@@TheFishLocker nothing massive but we had a few brill today and plenty of turbot. Stopped counting at Ten odd before the tide was running to hard really and like you had a “one that got away story” but a big turbot. Played about with the new GoPro today and need to go through the footage but being the first time it’s probably all over the show while I figure out angles etc 😂

@@theamputeeangler - That is literally what it takes. Trail and error and working out what angles etc work for you. Good luck bud. 👍🏻

Theres always next time. 😉

@@TheFishLocker you should team up with one of the lads from Bembridge. They have done well with the sharks the last couple of years.

Yes mate, there is always next time. 😉

@@TheFishLocker 😉👍

Glad you think so mate. 👍🏻

Glad you enjoyed it Melissa 😊

😉👍🏻

Stunning wasn’t it. 💙

Wonderful start to the day wasn’t it. 😊💙

@@TheFishLocker it most definitely was. We dont get to see too many sunrises or sunsets where i live in Scotland because the skys usually covered with dark gray clouds😂

Cheers Bryan, glad you could join us. 😊

🤫

Mackerel have been in short supply this year down here haven't they. 🤷🏻‍♂️

@@TheFishLocker yes, just hope it's a temporary thing but if being honest I suspect it's over fishing by some greedy nations , and if the case they need to get realistic before it's too late.

Haha. 3 shark rods is actually less than most use and a bait rod.

@@TheFishLocker Heh heh heh.... Gotcha.

Correct.

Haha. And legs like Olive. 🤣

Haha. Thats it. Those who know, already know. Those who don't - it doesn't matter. 😊

I have never had stargazie pie.
