Hauling the FishLocker Lobster Pots - Summer 2024 | The Fish Locker

What will we catch in our first haul of the Fishlocker Lobster pots? We love working a small number of lobster pots from our small family boat. Such a wonderful and rewarding experience that often brings delicious rewards. Hauling our lobster traps by hand makes it all the more rewarding when you catch something to eat. Join me to check our pots and talk you through the things we catch. Teaching about the marine world and how to care for it - Including conservation regulations that are in place in Cornwall UK. Recently a thief has been operating in our local area and several fishermen pots have been going missing. We searched for them but they were nowhere to be seen.

such a wholesome natural happy life. Good on you and blessings to the family. Carry on man

[@dawnhaynes7784]

I love watching your videos John James is growing up so fast 😊❤

[@tomelko]

Still can't believe how enjoyable it is watching you pull pots. Bringing James along certainly helps!

[@DeanG55]

Helps slow the filming down.

[@paulfountain1364]

I find the best pleasures are the simple ones.

[@theoisaac9948]

Quality time good job

[@philrulon]

Hard work hauling those traps by hand. Did a bunch of it as a youngster. It’s an honest living.

[@justreallybored6014]

Love James' Bass hat!!!!!

[@fredsoltveit8453]

Thanks for the bonus video. It's always fun to watch you hauling the pots and it's great to see how mutch James knows. It's sad to hear about all those thieves. As always I'm already looking forward to your next video 😊

[@marksutton116]

Love seeing you and James enjoying some bonding time. Won’t be long before he’s hauling those pots for you.😊

[@johnhay4228]

well done John and james 🦞🦞

[@jacquibradley1598]

Thank you John and James always nice to see you both and you've got your helper. Regards to the family, greetings from Cyprus. 🐟🐟🐟🐟🐵🐵

[@hiddentruth1982]

James is quite the Dad's boy isn't he? Dad's fishing buddy.

[@stucook8622]

It always makes me smile when you say " You'll turn the fish carcasses into a lobster " . Good to see you and the best boy out. Great video..thanks⚓

[@bessienesseler7327]

Love the BassProShops trucker hat. good game!

[@saltynutters]

What a great inspiration buddy 👏

[@saltynutters]

I don't think many can appreciate how hard it is to pull the pots 😅

[@jerrodbeck1799]

Good job Dad that’s excellent quality time Spent cant buy that with any dollar amount.👍🏻

[@oldinuselesshancox5194]

Thanks for sharing your time with us , lobster’s seams to be clapping with joy at being hulled up by you two, 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼🤟🏼🤙🏼🖖🏼🇳🇿

[@georginawoodford228]

It saddens me deeply when i hear how contemptuously people treat the sea and other fishermen in your area. While i know this happens everywere nowdays, your local environment seems bountiful anb should provide well for all. Once again lovley to your best boy James absorbing your teachings and ethics. How marvelous that h3 is confidently imparting it to us all.😁

[@timhogan9282]

What the heck man. I didn't get the notification for this video??? It's all good I still was able to see it. The pots are one of my favorites

[@trig6712]

Many thanks again

[@leonardryan8723]

John you need hydraulic hauler save on time plus head out to deeper water 💦. 😊

[@SkookumBeehives]

James is like a half-size copy of you! He stands like you, moves like you, and, more and more, fishes/lobsters like you! He knows the answers to all of your fishing-related questions, too! You have the best first mate ever!

[@stayspicy9456]

Does he do the fish locker finger wiggle like John though? 😂

[@keyo525]

You should buy and gin wheel mate to pull the pots will give you a 2.1 advantage in weight.

[@richardlongmuir8348]

James knows❤️

[@tonycamplin8607]

Obviously James is the key for catching lobsters! Can't get over how big crabs have to be in Cornwall before they're keepers. The ones that my fishmonger sells, Cromer crabs, are tiny compared to yours. As I've said before pots have always been targeted by thieves, they definitely were back in the 1950s.

[@nigelcurtis3421]

Im amazed you havent done your back in John . Another great post , like opening christmas presents 😊👍

[@nobbymorph]

Wife wants to know why I was so excited when your vid dropped. Awesome content, John, ably assisted by young James. Thank you!

[@jasonhughes5318]

Another great video. You always make me want to get out on the water. James always adds a fantastic family dimension. I watch with my two who are 12 and 14, and it’s got to the point where they both shout ‘James!’ when he’s in one of your videos!

[@cmz131958]

Your son is growing into quite the proper fisherman..! its so nice to see the next generation learning from the father.. knowledge passed on first hand is always best.. & you don't jam your vids with a total kid-fest which is, excuse me, just not interesting to fans in general ..So wish some of your contemporaries would "get that"..? I'm a Dad of 4. I Love seeing James & maybe ask him more of his opinions & insights as a young fisherman..? Would love to hear his observations..! God bless.

[@debbiekinnell9349]

Enjoy x

[@canadianranger]

Hello from Canada! Always love FishLocker content! Keep up the amazing work boys!

[@Mkbshg8]

"See ya when ya bigger!" haha! Nice one lads, some massive ones there eh

[@robinholmen2349]

I’ve been watching you for quite awhile now. It’s wonderful to see James finally want to get more into the seafood. When I first started watching he wouldn’t even eat it!!!

[@SkookumBeehives]

One of these days, you should take a trip over the pond to the coast of Maine. I think that it would be great to have you go out with one of our Maine lobstermen to compare methods and whatnot. Also, the fishing off the coast is pretty darned amazing!

[@educai]

Que grande está tu hijo. Buena enseñanza. Enhorabuena

[@werftv4580]

Get a puller!! HAHAHA.. kidding... hope your latest effort on this side of the world is paying off!

[@stephenallen5441]

Love your video keep up the amazing work

[@MartinBall-v6y]

Great video John and James Nice lobsters Cheers John See you on the next one guys.

[@johnallen8618]

Another cracking video John, does this mean you've only got one string of pots left now 🤔🙄

[@deborahjohnston2808]

Always wonderful to see you and James work together💥He is a wonderful lad!

[@stipojovic5830]

Thanks James for educating your father😊 Nice to see the both of you out on the boat and hope to see more in the near future. Greetz from Stipo from Holland

[@terryclarke7101]

Great video John good to see James out with you , have you ever thought about a small winch for bringing those pots up , might save any problems you might get with your back in later life .🐟

[@chrisstokie2361]

It never gets boring mate. Great content as usual. 👍

[@RyanHalladay-eg1ht]

Hello, longtime fan since I found you off a Greg ovens coastal forage video back in 2019 or so I think. The white and blue fish locker hoodies you were wearing? Are they for sale anywhere? Thanks for taking the time. It’s just, I’m medically disabled since 2017 and your videos are so uplifting that once I was able too, I moved to a beach community. Not saying the fish locker was the reason why, but you have a partial take on it. As I just want to be on the shore coastal foraging, wishing I could be out on the boat LOL. Good o. You mate , lots of love to you and your family

[@reubenoregan2088]

Love the videos were over here in west cork in Ireland . Love the videos so much I’ve ended up getting pots and my own punt to check them! Great watching keep it comming 🤟👍

[@PhreddCrintt]

Excellent job there James! Well done too Dad!! 😉

[@maxwilliam56]

Well done, John and James. I wonder if that's where the expression 'pot luck' comes from.

[@Wilde_UK]

You've got a good lad there. A great day out.

[@mickypful]

Cheers John and thanks. We're in full swing now , just need the winds to ease a bit. 😊

[@CristiNeagu]

Very important for kids to know where their food comes from. It doesn't magically appear on a supermarket shelf. I bet James will be helping you pull those pots out in no time at all.

[@gordonphillips292]

Mid-week bonus, thanks John, you're first fleet with James did nicely - I recall the bass - double whammy.

[@leonmarkrodziewicz279]

Are you only fishing the one string this year John? Hope to hear plenty more clacking over the next few months!

[@darenenglish5418]

Think it’s about time you and James were on the birdseye fish finger box 😂😂😂❤️❤️❤️😘😘😘

[@sherlocksteve9109]

thanks for bringing james with you. Don;t worry about those stolen pots, my friend. Thieves will have a bad day when they meet God on this throne in the afterlife. Their act of stealing has been recorded against them! Safe travels!!

The whole vid was a joy to watch crack on be safe and enjoy well done james

[@heinrichrutten2158]

Yeah🎉 Pod season is on😊 And we get a second Video this week Love it

[@IronmanV5]

Love your videos. REALLY love when you bring James out. Great job Dad!

[@Jimmyfisher121]

Thank you John and James I do love watching you collect the pots as you never know what is in them.

[@Niall-ie3iy]

Great video reminds me of fishing with my da in Ireland

[@dbrbruce9950]

I've learned a lot about lobsters watching this channel.

[@Iamaveryseriouspersonhonk]

Wow your son is getting big!

[@raildawg8338]

Awesome!

[@jc301-OTECH]

You need a pot winch Man.... Wonder how much they are...should do a fundraise... Everybody loves your channel n great family you raising up....Amazing wish I had a dad like that. :.

[@Dougsterxplor]

James has a new gauge.........................James has a new boat!! It's happening John!! Lovely to watch! 😁😁

[@tadhghayden7601]

That's a handy piece of kit James..

[@leegorman8322]

Hello John, the only thought's I had Florida Keys (it would be brave) is maybe fishing at night with an illuminated lure? I mean, it would be brave - land based (and very [very] sure footed). Thanks, mate. 🙄

[@Vikotnick]

Time goes by mate. Enjoy these times with James. I remember when I was wanting to get his Tomas the tank boots for my kids. In about 5-8 years he will be running the show.

[@nicholascavie2464]

Awesome again James and John, James will b pulling pots before much longer & taking over the video ,.Happy catching from Australia Nick

[@stephenking78]

Cheers boys for another midweek video, very enjoyable as usual. Beautiful looking lobsters, enjoy your meal. Hope you all thoroughly enjoyed your Florida holiday.👍

[@motorsnutts6594]

Hi John , a brilliant video on the pots , and a fantastic haul with James showing he’ll be running the show soon mate. As a fellow engineer I’d have had the verniers on that gauge out of curiosity 😂. appreciated as always 🦞🦀👍🏼 Paul

[@jenniferr5562]

Such a lovely video with you and James...Please keep these videos for when he is older. I would not have appreciated them at his age but I would LOVE to have them now! So many parts of the US do not have this seafood, I must admit I am jealous!!!

[@donaldadams5342]

Nice video John. James seems to like his new gauge, it will help him get more engaged & help impress on him, with the help of his dad, about the legal size that can be kept from the pots & the number of 'keepers'. Have a good time. Cheers, Don from South Aust.

[@martinbarker7987]

Doing the Pots... and the under water footage my favourite Thank you.

[@godzillas6301]

Your swedish/finish/scando/somewhere cold log with hole in it is up for grabs ready drilled for just 15 quid in your local home bargains 🙂

I wouldn't be surprised to find someone pulling those claws off and chucking the undersized lobsters back.

Lyme Bay Fisherman's CIC has a live lobster storage facility at Lyme Regis for the commercial folk :)

[@glendawolfe4231]

Nice

[@allenhughes867]

Big effort !!!!

[@rogerrichardson4324]

Don’t blink dad , James will be pulling the pots in no time at all .. they grow up so fast , nice to see him involved in what you like and do for us 👍

[@kingkev7960]

😂 I'm more excited than James to see these Lobster Pots

[@saragandey8625]

Nice to see the lobsters on the move looking like a great potting seasonahead

[@phil_law]

Another awesome video with your best boy. Thanks for the upload John and all the best!

[@chrisvanhaasteren3802]

Getting one just undersized. That’s why we call it fishing and not catching 😀😀

[@barksjohnson1513]

I love the cooking videos and Spargo time over this! I get seasick watching these honestly! Be safe out there.

[@uptonogoodism]

If only the rest of the world had your morality John!it's a sad straight of affairs 😢keep doing what you're doing Bro 👍

[@tomwinterfishing9065]

Wonder if you could put a little tracker in your pots. Do a bit of sleuthing…

[@Morio412]

It won't be long before you can let James do the heavy bit and all you have to do is helm the wheel, stand back and watch!
