Winter Shore Fishing UK - A day and a night Shore fishing in Cornwall | The Fish Locker

This shore fishing session shows exactly what it can be like fishing in Cornwall in winter. Every type of weather and overcoming the conditions. I explain the rods, rigs and baits showing baiting up and also explain things about the species I catch. Ending in some lovely fish for our family.

[@TheCurryMogul]

Of all the youtubers I watch, I reckon you have just about the best life! Keep up the fantastic work mate. Your channel is absolutely top class!

[@skateboardingjesus4006]

That's an excellent catch. I would be over the Moon if I caught whiting like that from the shore.

[@mitchellbroaddus9120]

Crappie fishing in Texas this week. Only freshwater fish I care to eat, that's native to here.

[@tonynicoletti8161]

And you as well

[@GMod_97]

It’s always a nice day when the fish locker makes a new video

[@TheFishLocker]

Every Sunday must be a great day 😬👍🏻

[@gandalfthewise3901]

Best fishing channel on KZbin.

[@TheFishLocker]

I am glad that you think so. 😊🎣

[@fishypie]

when you see a back drop like that on a lovely winters day, and people say oh god fishing is boreing. NO WAY IS IT

[@TheFishLocker]

They don’t know what they’re taking about.

[@user-mu7ir2vy2m]

😂 I just I'm always thrilled when I see a video from the fish locker and I love that family they just bring me so much joy and happiness stay beautiful and I wish you all the blessings in the world.❤

[@TheFishLocker]

Thank you so much. I am really happy to hear that you enjoy joining us on our adventures. 💙

[@nicolalagonigro1155]

"Apricity" The warmth of the winter sun. One of my favorite words, not only because apricity is a beautiful feeling after a gray winter.

[@TheFishLocker]

I shall try to remember that word. Thank you.

[@ivorbexon4030]

Whiting is one of the best eating fish, I would love them two.

[@TheFishLocker]

Not just 2 😉🎣

[@user-ru3re2nv1t]

First time i can say your on my spot lol

[@TheFishLocker]

Haha. No mate. You’re in my spot!! 😉🤣

[@ronniegilmour7538]

Your passion makes your videos a great watch.. thanks again

[@TheFishLocker]

We simply share what we love doing. 😊🎣

[@beckyjackson7755]

Love watching a Fish Locker video on Sunday!! Great way to end the weekend. When you catch the bull huss sharks, I can hear James finding a pod when foraging and exclaiming what it is!!

[@TheFishLocker]

We have some more foraging planned for the coming weeks. 😊👍🏻

[@danielfranklin9007]

It's that time again Sunday evening chilling with Mr Fishlocker brilliant 🎣🦞🤟🏻

[@TheFishLocker]

You’re always welcome mate. Every Sunday without fail.

[@johntonkin516]

Nice one John... best whiting I've seen in a while... round here it's just pin whiting... lovely to eat at that size you caught 👍

[@TheFishLocker]

They sure are. They’re delicious. 😊🎣

[@walkingwithgiants1]

I'm a long way from the sea, an out n out course fisherman, your channel is amazing, angling knowledge and natural presentation superb! For anyone who wants to know how to make a fishing channel of their own, you set a very high bar.

[@TheFishLocker]

We just share what we know and love doing mate 😊🎣

[@heinrichrutten2158]

Sunday evening with Cornwall's finest Today I did the final planing for my Summer at the Atlantic Coast in France and now inspiration what to fish🎉 Thank You

[@TheFishLocker]

Sunday rituals. 🎣👍🏻

[@Rapaxx05]

I love to watch your videos, they are so enjoyable, calming me down. Just love it! Keep going Mr, thank you.

[@TheFishLocker]

It is our pleasure.

[@colsmith7257]

I relate to that, nothing egotistical about this channel, a thinking fishermans channel. You learn so much from a man who cares about his environment

[@RoamingQuinn]

Remember nights on the beach with my Grandad catching buckets of whiting, made a cracking fish supper, with the odd dab or two. Thanks John! 👍

[@TheFishLocker]

Any time.

[@23valleyroad]

Eh up John! James is going to love them fish fingers....good ending to a slow start x

[@TheFishLocker]

Aye it didn’t start off well but ended strong. 😊🎣

[@adrianplackett4948]

Thanks for all the hard work John much appreciated

[@TheFishLocker]

Any time Adrian.

[@danielfranklin9007]

Wow!! Never seen a field mouse that close to the sea eating fish love it 🎣🦞🤟🏻

[@TheFishLocker]

I laid flat and it ran up to my leg.

[@daystatesniper01]

Now then John a cracking video/night session ,Huss and some belting whiting ,and yes whiting are awesome eating fish,tight lines bud'

[@TheFishLocker]

Thanks mate.

[@samjayw]

Love your content so much, bring such relaxing joy to my day when I see you upload! Hope you and yours are well John!

[@TheFishLocker]

[@nancys2212]

Started BAD, ended GREAT! The prize, 5 WONDERFUL eating size fish. Enjoyed the video John. Lessened learned, again, DON'T GIVE UP EARLY ON!thanks for posting and I enjoyed your success! You and the family have a GREAT week. Hello from the states!

[@TheFishLocker]

Perseverance is key.

[@peidog]

We have had enough rainand wind to sink an ark lately lol.Longer days are not far away.

[@TheFishLocker]

Let’s hope the sun comes with them.

[@nsean479]

I know the smaller Whiting can be a nuisance no more than dogfish though but those were a lovely eating size. To catch those in that session is a result and always nice to get out when the weathers nice.

[@TheFishLocker]

I was very glad to see them. I worked hard for those fish. 🤣

[@user-rr8ue6gy3q]

Some cracking tings when everyone else in the country is blanking. Well done and thanks for getting us through the cold dark damp winter. Won’t be long until us t shirt anglers get back out there.

[@TheFishLocker]

It’s not always easy but I do my best. 🎣👍🏻

[@derekmay8679]

Finished a long weekend nicely that John 👌. ..As usual you do the business as well....Those whiting were lovely fish... I do prefer whiting to cod to be honest but finding them that size is not easy ...lovely battered or crumbed ,with nice chunky chips ,peas and tartare sauce, with a big squeeze of lemon 🍋...Oh yes ...Thanks for the great entertainment and stay lucky 👍👍👍

[@TheFishLocker]

Cheers Derek. 👍🏻🎣

[@rayb228]

Nice to see some good whiting and a good feed !

[@TheFishLocker]

Belter whiting!! 💪🏻🎣

[@robertrankin9130]

Time i get rods all sorted i would need my dinner and a sleep for an hour.love the show.

[@TheFishLocker]

No stamina mate. 🤣

[@jimbofatman]

Great job John

[@TheFishLocker]

Thanks 👍🏻

[@Close_Call]

What a gorgeous day. Nothing like this in Scotland ...

[@TheFishLocker]

We haven’t had many mate.

[@iwilson227]

I know what you mean about cutting down the tackle you carry. I do a bit of pike fishing with my 10yr old son and by the time im loaded up with all our rods , tackle, bait, lunch, shelter and some fire lighting fuel im like a pack horse😂 knackered my back a couple of times in the past. Cant cut down much in what we lug now and its still a hefty load👍

[@TheFishLocker]

Get a barrow. 🤣😉

[@user-ks3ol3lw3b]

I was going to say 'A bad day fishing is better than a good day at work,' but then the sun went down and the whiting came out!

[@TheFishLocker]

Like I said, I figured the fish would be moving in at darkness

[@markdbowman2807]

Great to see the weather improving, those Whiting were toppers, I'm going to try night fishing, was out during the week, no joy, winds out to sea, clear water, not a knock. Enjoyed your video, as always, great watch, cheers John.

[@TheFishLocker]

Good luck when you get out mate. 🎣👍🏻

[@GIBBO4182]

Heading down to Cornwall in a few weeks! Can’t wait, going to Bude for a week…hope the weather is like this! 😂

[@TheFishLocker]

I hope it is good for you mate.

[@wearetomorrowspast.5617]

Cool vid. Nice blue skies there. And fish at the end. All worthwhile. Cheers.

[@TheFishLocker]

Glad you enjoyed joining me. 😊🎣

[@c.ifishingguernsey]

Great session mate nice to see maybe spring coming up sooner rather then later it’s been lovely here In guernsey 👍👍🎣

[@TheFishLocker]

It’s been horrific here.

[@John-ng2vg]

Hi John well done, Ihad felt on the bottom of my wellies to stop me slipping on the rocks, also helps on the slip way when launching my boat. Lovely whiting fillets, great stuff John all the best.

[@TheFishLocker]

Nice tip. 👍🏻

[@gordonphillips292]

What a stunner of a day John, very nice whiting caught, James'll be chuffed. Thanks for the weekly treat.

[@TheFishLocker]

My pleasure Gordon.

[@Vikotnick]

Mate. That intro reminded me so much of Survivorman back in the day when he had to set up the cameras. That is a lot of work! Well done. I just wanted to say that before I watch the rest of the video. Just well done on the intro.

[@TheFishLocker]

Thank you very much. I was just trying something out and hoping to make it interesting. I’ve done a couple like that in the past and wanted to give it another go. 😊💙

[@thomaswhitty9452]

When it’s an off day it’s off. I personally used to fish from 2 hours before low then all the way up depending on weather and if I was catching but I’d stick it out for the whole 9 to 10 hours and blank most of the time. Great video as always. Thanks John for taking me out of London for a bit!

[@TheFishLocker]

Some days I can just tell by the conditions that it will be wasted time. So best to manage it properly.

[@seankavanagh6082]

Love the video, I admire your patience and optimism! As they say: day spent in fishing, does not count towards life expectency - this means we'll meet by the sea in a 100 years :))

[@TheFishLocker]

Haha. I should be good for a few hundred then. 🤣

[@user-md2ty5nv9d]

They are some of the best Whiting I have seen in quite a while. Great video John.

[@TheFishLocker]

Thank you.

[@grahamallen3941]

Nice session John. Really like whiting especially in a fish pie! Loved the little field mouse getting into the fish!! Thanks mate for a lovely video again. All the best Graham

[@TheFishLocker]

Have a wonderful day Graham. 😊🎣

[@markridsdale4564]

As usually good John results and spring is in the air too ❤

[@TheFishLocker]

Thank good ness.

[@stuartlast8156]

Super whiting, not a bad session after all ! If you and your pal want a great fishing adventure I highly recommend southern Ireland, the Dingle peninsula, whatever the wind direction/strength, you can always find somewhere sheltered to fish, can't guarantee the rain though !! Lol😂, thanks for sharing with us 👍👍

[@TheFishLocker]

I have fished Wexford and also county Clare. Wonderful coastlines.

[@shaunowens82]

I always look out for a new release of yours.......great to watch another of your videos. you are so good at explaining how to fish and you always have great results. Keep the vids coming love them

[@TheFishLocker]

We upload new videos every Sunday without fail. 😊🎣

[@funnysods]

You read my mind when you said you were taking them first two whiting home, one of the sweetest fish in the sea for eating. Even better that you had another two beauties on the pennel rig. Well done John, great video.

[@samuelgarrod8327]

They're my favourite whitefish. 🍴

[@TheFishLocker]

Thanks mate.

[@user-lx1ul6xm9l]

Great video John, Day session was a lot of work for no reward but glad the night session payed off for you. Cheers John See you on the next one.

[@TheFishLocker]

Aye mate. It was just about reading the conditions and knowing what would work.

[@blackgrape73]

Got the Penn Tidal XR 420 and I honestly can’t fault it. Paired with the Penn Affinity III 8000 and you’re good for 95% of any uk beach fishing scenario imho. Great vid once again John 👍

[@TheFishLocker]

I agree. They won’t rip kelp stalks out but they’re great rods.

[@thecsslife]

Whiting the size of cod. What a catch

[@TheFishLocker]

Not a common capture is it?

[@iansmith7369]

You answered my question just as I was typing 😂😂😂😂

[@TheFishLocker]

🤣🤣🤣

[@debbiekinnell9349]

As always a top video from John fish locker hoping all the family are well xx

[@TheFishLocker]

Thank you Debbie, we are all well and looking forward to summer. 😊

[@LynEdwards-tk2fs]

another cracking video ,them whiting cracking size hope james enjoyed his fish fingers look forward to the next one all the best mate

[@TheFishLocker]

Thank you Lyn, have a lovely day.

[@gigi3242]

Glad you got those fish. Thanks for sharing that brilliant day. Have an awesome week

[@TheFishLocker]

Thank you. You too.

[@user-yj4oo1lm8v]

another great video john well done

[@TheFishLocker]

Thank you. Glad you enjoyed it 😊🎣

[@mickypful]

When the weather's a bit dodgy, I sometimes regret going but never as much as I regret not going that evening. Cracking weather and fishing John and love the night session. 😂

[@TheFishLocker]

Cheers Micky.

[@iansmith7369]

You’ve done really well for us tonight John thanks

[@TheFishLocker]

Thank you Ian, all the best bud.

[@zworm2]

Great catch of whiting! Definitely one of my favorite fish. Beautiful white flesh, sustainable and smokes very nicely. Nice session and I am sure James enjoyed the fish fingers.

[@TheFishLocker]

We certainly did.

[@hb9394]

Great video keep up the good work

[@TheFishLocker]

Thank you very much.

[@scottward8771]

Mega John thanks again pal 🎣

My pleasure.

[@N1611n]

Love watching your videos, thank you for posting.

[@TheFishLocker]

Any time mate.

[@grumpyjohntxredneckrc6346]

Hey John, You Need To Get Or Make You Some Quad-Loop Crab Snares & Use A Drone To Drop Live Bait Further Out!? 🤔👍👍😜🤣😁😎

[@TheFishLocker]

Those snares would work for spiders in summer

[@AndyMacaskill]

Turned into a good session, John!

[@TheFishLocker]

Thanks Andy.

[@bjrnhjjakobsen2174]

Bring a small tent and take a nap until the conditions change😂

[@TheFishLocker]

Good idea. But means carrying more.

[@michaelbolger745]

Nice to see sun, brightness and a blue sky. Bliss

[@TheFishLocker]

Not had many days like that this winter.

[@charlescoult]

8:15 - super cool rig - I need to try this one out

[@TheFishLocker]

My pleasure.

[@7cColin]

Whiting are indeed great eating, and I don't know how many times they've saved me blanking on winter beaches. I don't understand why so many anglers see them as nuisance fish, I think they're great. In my local area they tend to be on the small side but up in the North-west of Scotland I've had some real big 'uns from the beaches. Thanks John

[@TheFishLocker]

Any time Colin, best wishes bud.

[@garrydavey7849]

I love your videos mate. From a muddy weston super mare

[@TheFishLocker]

Best wishes Garry.

[@fatfish6839]

John it is 2241hrs, stayed up to watch, fab upload lovely. Love to James, Hannah the shy one and Jim, hugs from Cyprus, cold wet & windy. 🐟🐟🦀🦀❤❤🐵🐵Always the monkey for James.

[@TheFishLocker]

Thank you Jacqui and have a wonderful day. 😊🎣

[@AaronOxfordExmouth1989]

An absolutely cracking video. I will be honest, I have never had much luck with shore fishing, far prefer being at sea, where the big fish are. This channel has reawakened my interest in marine biology, especially sharks and rays. Thanks for the reawakening John.

[@TheFishLocker]

It is my absolute pleasure, I always hope that our content will help to inspire people to take an interest in the natural world.

[@philipdangelo]

Great video always enjoy fish locker

[@TheFishLocker]

Thanks Phil.

[@63melvyn]

Great video and thank you for explaining about the bait and hooks and rigs

[@TheFishLocker]

No problem at all. 🎣👍🏻

[@Richard.357]

Before head torches were ever dreamed of. I remember painting the rod tips with iluminous paint. One flash from our 6 D cell torches would charge our rods for a while. Another excellent video.

[@TheFishLocker]

Thanks Richard. 👍🏻🎣

[@Verochka1989]

Weather finally looks better! Mice on the beach! That is new information for me! Those fish look delicious!❤

[@TheFishLocker]

I’ve had all sorts come down to meet me. Foxes, badgers, hedgehogs and plenty of rats and mice.

[@Verochka1989]

@@TheFishLocker would actually be interesting to see that kind of thing in videos more! 🙂

[@donaldadams5342]

Well, pretty quiet first session but gee, you did finish up the night session with 4 stunning Whiting. By & large pretty good weather, at lest for one day making it enjoyable to be able to get out & cast a line. Thanks for sharing this very relaxing & informative video John, good to catch up with you & regards to Hannah & the rest of your family. Cheers, Don from South Aust.

[@TheFishLocker]

As always Don it is my pleasure my friend. Take care and best wishes to your family. 😊🎣

I agree mate.

[@ackosadventures2486]

Good haul of fish in the end John 👍

[@TheFishLocker]

Pulled it out right at the end didn’t I. 😉👍🏻

[@conoromeara8974]

Greetings from south west coast of Ireland! They are massive whiting! I'd be over the moon with that size! I remember as a teen, night fishing round Dec-Jan bitterly cold nights at a local pier. Huge showls of whiting coming in and you'd take the bite, there would often be two on one hook and some got fouled on the lead grippers, even on the lead clips! The water was alive with them! They were all around 1/4 to 1/2 pound though! Could hold them up to the light and see internal organs!!

[@TheFishLocker]

We call them “Pin whiting”

[@robertkreiling1746]

Another great video

[@stevenlord782]

Always a lovely relaxing watch, first class advice & Knowledge John. Thankyou

[@TheFishLocker]

[@chriskennard5920]

So, it turned into a good, productive evening John - some really nice whiting there...yum, yum! But unusual to see you out on the slippery rocks at night without your life jacket?

[@TheFishLocker]

I had it around my waist. It’s the alto belt pack. 👍🏻

[@joangeddes380]

Awesome fishing 👋🥰🤗👍🎣🐠🐟

[@TheFishLocker]
