Day 2 on the NEW FishLocker Boat - Coastal Small Boat Fishing - Warrior 170

Following successful offshore sea trials this video shows the first inshore fishing trip on my new Warrior 170. Building on what I had learned from the Offshore sea Trials I planned a day fishing some inshore marks with various methods. Lure fishing, live baits, drift fishing and fishing at anchor. Bass, Pollack, Rays and anything else I could find. I had some wonderful fishing and had a great time on the new boat. As mentioned in the video, here is the link to my video on how to shoot and haul and anchor • Anchoring a boat - How...

Hi john the boat is a warrior northern made made to last and perform

Just a quick question when you say offshore how far is that ? 🤔

[@TheFishLocker]

@@garywheeley5108 - Generally anything over 9 miles from the shore is considered “offshore”

I live in Minnesota, but I would still fly just to fish with ya! Awesome!

[@sherrirowan5049]

Oh gosh. Pardon me for putting This comment here, but I cannot stop thinking of that beautiful, huge, green moray eel you caught in one of your Florida Keys trip video. That was so brilliant. ❤ thank you for all the time you spend in videoing and editing for us all. I watch your videos every single day. I rue the day I have watched my last one …these are SO fun and so well done. Oh gosh. And those sturgeon in Canada - mind blowing. Now I have to go to Cornwall, Canada, AND the Keys, all thanks to you 😂😅❤ much love to you all.

When I see you start lookin for the net you always know its something quality

Hello Mr. FL.I had another skin cancer cut off my nose at end of last August.The needle to freeze the nose is very painfull.Also when doing the stiches the doctor wandered into an area of the nose that was not frozen.Never want that ordeal again.Part of my nose is now plastic.You have the right idea to dodge the sunburns. Cheers from lifelong fisherman in Westcoast Canada!

The sound of the mackerel motor sound perfect just right for that boat. Flop flop flopping . My lobsters will hear you miles away. .😀😀😀🦞🦞🦞 Honestly that's just a great boat John glad you are enjoying it. .Enjoyed the time effort and how to gently return the fish .That's always a credit to your personality and attitude .Respect for the sea. .Cheers lad

Mackerel scales and Flounder scales, you will find them and pick at them till the end of time! Memories like the scale that's left behind! Great video and couldn't resist!

[@tony16146]

Hi John... As I mentioned before even though I'm busy this weekend I found some me/family time... Within that I managed to catch up with your ocean adventures... I did check out your new boat and now I'm envious (but can't justify one right now)... I don't seem to be getting all your notifications! No excuse for not checking out your channel... I wish you and your family all the best... Tight lines fella... 👍

[@TheFishLocker]

Haha. Wouldn’t be a session without a dogfish.

[@GIGABACHI]

I keep telling people you don't need to go out to the Atlantic Rift and cast at 1000m to find decent fish BUT they call me fool and ignorant. The best fishing I have done it's always coastal waters at no more than 30m. Plenty of healthy sea critters to fry. Good work, Lad. Enjoy your nice little boat, family and time off. Life is too short to be stressing 24/7/365.

The only blond I've had I married! Super video, great fish. Went to an Aquarium on Anglesey where the rays were so tame they came up to be stroked (amazing experience). Watching you catch them and the care you take putting them back is a shining example to all anglers. Impressive film and commentary packed with tips, thanks for posting.

What a day, water clarity looked brilliant, thanks for sharing John👍🎣

[@rhino5419]

Hello John. Just in case you hadn't thought, bits of split pool noodle on the side rails would protect your rods from banging. Pre cut them to length, slip em' on at the spot and slip em off at the end of the day. All the best.

[@knightclan4]

Great idea!

[@mstrdiver]

@@knightclan4- Or use pipe insulation as it is cheaper and easier to get and is already split lengthwise.

Very interesting fishing, very informative, clear relaxed commentary. New boat seems to have shaped up well too. I think it is great to see you fish in such a very sustainable way selecting just what you want & releasing the rest. Don from South Aust.

So far she has been great. Different size and layout though. She has a lot of space in the back and the front it’s just the camera position. Take care mate and have a good one. 😊👍🏻🎣

[@stephengeoghegan-doughty.5870]

Hi John Congratulations bud, those rays were stunning and the shot of the second male just floating before you netted it was just a class bit of video-ography, the clarity of the water probably helped mind you. The new boat is without doubt doing the bussiness for you, and as i said on the last video, you camera placement is spot on John, altogether a quality angler in a quality boat. Take care, stay safe, especially as that Delta variant running a muck, regards to Hannah and the youngsters, and keep it lit.👍 my friend.

[@trampster7306]

Great video John - the new boat is looking good. Nice one on the Blondies too! I'm gonna have to open some tinned Mackerel for lunch - closest I can get to the pan sized one you brought in over the Gunwale! Stay safe & well! 👍👍
