That moray had beautiful coloring.Still the highlight is that monster cuda.You walked him to the house..you are lucky you are still married.Come again mate love having you in our country.👍👍

[@TheFishLocker]

Haha. Hannah knew I was fishing mad when she married me. 😬🎣

[@natet3345]

To the soul who keeps hiding in the shots, props to ya for the diligence lol. You matter though kiddo. They know it too. All around respect. I love you guys

Oh to be a tennager. 🤣💙🤷🏻‍♂️

[@horsenuttie76]

Bitter sweet seeing this. Just lost my cousin to cancer on Monday, she loved going to Vegas and people watching. Hope you enjoyed your time there.

[@TheFishLocker]

I am sorry for your loss. 💙

@@TheFishLocker Thank you.

[@JonFrumTheFirst]

I love to see someone come to the States and enjoy themselves. Great family.

[@TheFishLocker]

We love the US. Every time we visit we have a great time. 😊

[@JonFrumTheFirst]

@@TheFishLocker Great to hear. I've lived - and fished - here for 67 years, and I certainly haven't always had a good time. 😁

[@RichardHartness]

I live on the East Coast of the US (NC) and once flew out to Vegas for a conference. I know many will disagree but the biggest highlight for me was flying over the Grand Canyon and actually seeing it in person. No photo can really do it justice. I hope you guys got to notice it either on the way in or out. It's truly massive and magnificent.

[@TheFishLocker]

We didn’t see it mate.

[@RichardHartness]

@@TheFishLocker Ah, well sorry to hear that. Hopefully if there's a next time you'll get a chance to see it. It's truly breathtaking!

[@duygukayhanisaskank4915]

@@TheFishLocker Hey John, this is a GREAT montage of your recent family vacation to Las Vegas & The Florida Keys. Such good memories for James. You pointed-out the Sargassum Weed. This year, it's been HORRIBLE throughout The Caribbean. Areas of the shores of Florida have suffered as well. But not as much as Mexico & The Caribbean Islands. This year, it's an exceptionally lengthy & over-whelming season for Sargassum along the Riveria Maya. It usually arrives in abundance during late May. This year, it began cluttering our beautiful beaches in February. Increasing in volume monthly. Since June it has spoiled most of the beaches from Cancun to Central America. Often arriving by the thousands of tons; accumulating knee-deep on the beaches. I pray to God the Sargassum Season ends...as usual...in September. I've booked 15 nights at an all-inclusive resort...South of Playa del Carmen...in October. 🙂 Best regards from Yucatan, Ben

[@matty6848]

Agree Richard. You only get a true perspective how big the Grand Canyon is from a birds eye view.

[@TheFishLocker]

@@duygukayhanisaskank4915 - It was the same when we were in cancuun earlier this year. Completely stopped me from doing any fishing

[@MrGreenNScaly]

Wow! Congrats Hannah on your outstanding promotion! Slaving away while John is out fishing all day? Awesome - keep up the great work!!!

[@TheFishLocker]

Haha. It’s a hard life being a modern woman. 😉

[@cathy4582]

Oh I enjoyed your extended family vlog so much! So nice to see Mrs. Fish Locker & the joy that James exhibited was priceless! So proud of you for giving your teenage daughter her space! I enjoyed every minute of this vid!!

I am glad that you enjoyed joining us. 😊

[@richlev501]

Mr Fish Locker, what a lovely vlog. Thank you for sharing what looked like a fabulous family holiday. You have inspired me to get the rest of my family doing something similar very soon. All the best and thanks again. R.

[@TheFishLocker]

Good for you Richard. I hope you all have a wondeful time. 💙

[@alexgoulding646]

Epic video as always. However I'm chuckling at the idea of taking a suspiciously shaped case with "bazooka" on the side, onto a plane. Love it.

[@TheFishLocker]

Haha. So many people gave me dodgy looks. 🤣🤣

[@jonathanparry9505]

Some great fish John. I would imagine six months in that house would be most pleasant. Saving those divers too, what a great job 👍🏼

I think after 6 months my pots would need checking. 🤣🦀🦞

[@dannyhare6951]

In the 70s and 80s this was my scuba /snorkeling area. We used to spear fish and enjoy the vast variety of life about us. Sadly about the early 90s it was mostly dead for various reasons. I am so happy to see it come back. My children still live there though I am on a different wander now. Thank you for your videos showing me somebody was paying attention when we screamed about it then. Peace. D

[@TheFishLocker]

I’m glad you enjoyed our little Floridian adventure Danny. So much to see and still much more to explore. 😊👍🏻

[@davidgriffiths4788]

Love the way your daughter manages to escape the camera.

What a great family holiday and a fascinating record of it. Not only the fishing but also the wildlife too. James hosing off the lizard was lovely. Thank you

It was hot and it stank. So needed a bath. Teaching James to be kind and respectful of nature. 😊

[@auntdave180]

James is getting a great education, I wish more kiddos could be so lucky. Love your videos and the explanations; John is so knowledgeable, and not just about fish! Thank you for taking us along, FishLocker family. 🎣

I live in the Brood X area for cicadas and every 17 years they emerge en masse. Like millions and millions of them. The noise they make make your house vibrate.

Crazy!!

[@matty6848]

Hi John so glad you and the family are having a great time. Yes Las Vegas is a crazy place, it’s like one big open air nightclub. Me and the missus have been twice and it’s a very unique part of the world too say the least.

I've been busy this last week and it's taken me three different days to get all this video in. I just wanted to say that I hope your family enjoyed Florida as much as I enjoyed watching your videos on your trip. Yes, you are correct about the fast food serving. They really are too large. Our family went to Atlantic Beach last fall. We chartered an fishing trip on the sound side and my wife got sea sick. I wish she wasn't prown to getting sick and enjoyed fishing like I do. Thanks for the great videos. Looking forward to seeing more. Tight lines.
