- Опубликовано: 7 фев 2025
- We fish a place over 24 hours on the East coast of Fuertaventura in the Volcanic Canary Islands. My friend and I explore a new place and fish it twice over a 24 hour period. We experiment with different methods and land some real monster fish.
The website from which we ordered our fishing licences was - www.spanishfishinglicence.com
Here are links to some of the tackle we used in this session. I hope it helps.

Thanks!
Thank you very much.
I have a moray eel as a family pet. The young kiddos think it's the neatest thing, and it's a great opportunity to not only teach them about aquatic animals, but to make them curious about everything else. Your shows do even more to the last point. They are so curious, and you explaining everything the way you do is bar none the best and most wholesome I've seen short of Nat Geo documentaries. You have a true gift
Thank you very much. We are simply sharing what we know and love doing. 😊
John we all get excited when we have a big fish on. If you wet yourself, just own it. As you get older it will happen more often. Cheers and thanks for another great video ! 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿🤣🤣🤣
Haha.
Thanks for the mention john👍 cracking session . I slipped on the rocks at salines once and snapped my rod in half! all down to the excitement of having a big blue hit my lead weight and run as I was retrieving🤦 they are dangerous. I hope you get some more good fish👍
This is why sea anglers are better than those fresh water lot, we're always trying to help each other out.
Credit where its due mate. If I had done my due diligence I would have found more of your videos before I went out there tbh. We will definitely he heading back as we fished it hard for a week and barely scratched the surface.
@The Fish Locker there is soo much diversity when it comes to the marks, species and types of fishing in different areas of the island, I'm still finding new marks and thats after over 40 visits🤦
I'm surprised you managed to find space to fish at Salinas as its always packed when I'm out there. I've given up trying to fish it🤦
I'm glad my videos were of help👍 that's what I do it for. All the best John
@@gsp Be good to see you 2 fishing together in fuerte in the future
Nothing better is there than a good ole screaming run is there and the line buzzing of the reel when you're playing them is there m8 had some nice fish on this one
It’s a feeling that’s hard to beat. 🤣
This is what always fascinated me about sea fishing.
The unknown. The sheer variety, size and incredible array of species that “might” just be cruising on by and fancy dining at your table.
Excellent video, as per, John. Action, education, and humour. Just like sea fishing, it's what keeps me coming back!!! 😁
Glad you enjoyed the video, the fishing out there certainly has a lot of potential. 😉👍🏻🎣
What a fantastic session!
Some lovely fish there 👍
This is my kind of holiday 😉
Mine too.
Great Sunday Viewing , Thanks John.
Any time mate.
Those bream were hilarious! Thank goodness you caught that on camera, or no one would ever believe you!
'MINE! MY FOOD!'
"No, MINE!!"
🤣🤣🤣🐟
Then I slipped flat on my ass!! 🤣
Love to see a stingray ! In 1983 I held the junior record for a boat caught stingray ! It was 46 pound 2 ounces from a boat out from west Mersea Essex . I was 13 years old ! Love the channel
Wow. Well done.
I saw where Tom got a cut on his leg the night before. Bummer. It’s so beautiful there. Glad you both had a blast. ❤
He manages to get an injury most times we go fishing. 🤣
Great Video John.
Great to meet you and the family at the Boatshow on Thursday. I'll pop your sticker on my new Warrior 175!
Keep up the great vids
Glad you had a good time mate. It was a great few days. 👍🏻
I don’t like fishing, but i love watching you like it. Appreciation from 🇨🇦
That really is a compliment about the videos. Thank you. 😊👍🏻
Great session John.
Good to see your crushing the barbs 😉
Tight lines. 👍
Best way when fishing catch and release. 👍🏻🎣
Lovely to meet you at the SBS boatlife show at the the NEC in Brum. (It was only “oh hello, it’s John isn’t it”) I only said hello but would have loved to have spent some time talking fishing with you but you were totally engaged with others while I was there!😊. BTW thanks for the discount code bye he way we had a tidy discount on entry!
I’m glad you enjoyed the show mate. Yes I was swamped every day it was incredible. Have a great day and take care. 😊👍🏻🎣
Now that is what you call flatfish, thank you for bringing us along with you and your mate, now that was something else, I would love to have seen Jim cook one of those Ray's that would have fed some people.
Haha. He could have fed half the island. 🤣
Absolutely fantastic John, wife would not let me fish there on holiday, you lucky ------- great as Al ways ,I really enjoy watching your exploration trips.
Maybe next time mate. 👍🏻😊
WoW! You two were getting some monsters! Great fishing and great workout, lol. Thanks for letting us tag along! Have a great week!
It is our pleasure Julianne. 😊🎣
Fantastic video John & Tom 🐟🎣🐟🎣
Thanks mate. 👍🏻
That tuna went for the table then, too right n all good eating 😋
😉👍🏻
Fantastic session on the rocks John, them stingers were impressive, a glimpse of the Jurassic period!! amazing creatures. Appreciate your efforts bud 👍🏼👍🏼
My pleasure mate.
Hola John great episode, I'm knackerd just watching you, so you must be beat, hope your chinese was good, best wishes to you and family, keep safe x
We didn’t actually get one. We were too late and it closed. 😔🤦🏻♂️
@@TheFishLocker OUCH! x
Amazing session (Red letter day) well done John....... I think I need a holiday!
Brilliant session. 😊👍🏻
Great fishing in an exotic place. What more can a fisherman want. Some awesome catches there John from both of you. All the best to all of you.. Tight lines.
Cheers bud and tight lines. 😊👍🏻
Well done to you both for bringing us an amazing video.⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Those rays and bonito were awesome.🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣
You work so well together too.👏👏
All I can say is a huge thank you for sharing your experiences.👍👍
Take care and stay safe.😷🙊
It is my pleasure Ian. 😊👍🏻🎣
fantantastic session, some quality Rays and Skate. Will have to take my gear next time I go to the Canaries.
Definitely!!
A master class in how to land, handle and release those massive round stingrays. Always learn something every time I watch one of your videos.
Wouldn’t fancy that mark at night though!
You and your mate are highly competent anglers.
The filming and content were excellent.
Thank you both.
Haha. Thank you very much, though me and Tom are a pair of idiots really. 🤣🤪
Excellent fishing video I loved it !!!! Now that's what I call fishing abroad!!!! Well done John and Tom fantastic
Great fun in the sun!!
Some nice rays John, I am glad to gave it a go on the Island. The big stingray you caught is the average size on my special mark that I fish and you have got a nice sandy beach to land them on which I will share with you incase you want to go out there again. The baits that you are using, work fantastic live or dead whole, great fishing John Tom
We will certainly go back again.
I've never seen a Bonito before. Thanks for sharing! It really had a pretty colour.
This was an Atlantic Bonito.
Greetings from the other side
Do so love when Mr Ray starts ta fly
👍🖖
They are incredible fish aren’t they. 😊👍🏻🎣
Another corker John thank you, greetings from Cyprus. (Short & sweet today)! 🦀🦀🐟🐟😎😎
Hi Jacqui, have a lovely day. 😊💙
WOW! Those rays are beautiful! They look so difficult to land and unhook, I'm so glad neither of you slipped and fell, it was almost stressful to watch (especially the night fishing) HAHA! Thanks for the video!
Haha. We did slip and fall a few times. 🤣
Great to meet you John today at Birmingham very surreal
Glad to meet you too bud.
I'm often in lanzarote, never thought about fishing for rays. Can't wait to get back out to catch these beasts!
Get after it mate. Good luck. 👍🏻🎣
Cracking session lads, fantastic stingers and those white skate are amazing, like some undersea ghost, lets hope their species makes a come back.
16:43 John Locker casually taking his sting ray for a walk 😂
Haha. I thought that when I was editing it. 🤣
That was so e great fishing, you must be really pleased. Lots of advice as usual. Thank you for sharing
I feel like we had a great session. 😊👍🏻🎣
A great video. I'm out in Playa Blanca, Lanzarote and the fishing marks along the coast here are so accessible for holiday sessions.
I have never fished Lanza, maybe I should. 😉👍🏻
@The Fish Locker I'm sure all the islands reward. Keep up your fantastic videos buddy. Learn so much and enjoy your presentations. 👏
@The Fish Locker also less windy than Corralejo as we're in the lee of the mountains here in Playa. I can see Corralejo from my apt accross the sea.
Cracking holiday then Sting rays are something else well done guys
Cheers mate. 😊👍🏻
@@TheFishLocker have you got a link to that life vest thingymebob 😂 you had clipped to you belt mate to have a look at this bit of kit please?
Dream fishing in a cracking climate. Seeing those skate Brought back memories of the Australian guy Steve Erwin I think his name was, who died from the barb from a large ray penetrating his heart, so be very careful lads. Fantastic viewing John and Tom.
He is sadly missed.
You got into them today!! Great video! You said "Wow" on that one fish and it looked like a Wahoo!! Lol.
It was a beaitiful fish wasn’t it!! 💙
Some real monsters there John. Great video as always.
Thank you Leon.
Great video John and those were some cracking Stingrays.
Thank you very much mate, glad you enjoy joining us.
Thoroughly enjoyed watching your adventures overseas. Well done to the both of you for bringing in some mighty fish. Glad you were all safe, looked like a mark for the experienced. Best wishes to you all, Kev and Co.
Any rock mark is a place that needs to be approached with respect and common sense. 👍🏻
Heart was in my mouth when you were handling the Stingray. I used to catch these in NZ and they are no joke. Two mates of mine get hit with the barb and still have the maks to prove it, they are no joke. They can even curl the tail forward. Flip them over before doing anything to them, they go catatonic.
They are surprisingly fast aren’t they.
20⁰c... I'll be right there! Thx for yet another good video
It is my pleasure.
The way that stingray just plopped onto the water’s surface and floated away at 30:31 was hilarious
😉👍🏻
Brilliant. Looks amazing there. Thanks for sharing. Tight lines
My pleasure.
Ive surfed the canaries many of times but never fished there what a cracking edit well done 😎👌
Thank you.
Cracking session you had there John. love Salinas, you never know what your going to get with the big rods. Live bogas on slider rigs also excellent rig to use there.
Keep up the good work ,your channel is awesome 🎣🦈
We are already planning our next trip back. 👍🏻🎣
If blue fish is on your hit list, November is a good time .we had a few to mid doubles and many other anglers we spoke to was also having them then🎣
Well done lads ! There were some cracking fish !! 🏴👍
Thanks Phil. 😊👍🏻🎣
If you ever get a chance to show how you pack for an overseas fishing trip I would really enjoy seeing how it's done. Info on what is allowed on flights and how you ensure your rods are safe would be very interesting. Thanks for all the your videos, they're very entertaining and informative.
All the airlines are different mate and the rules change all the time.z
When I've done it, within the EU anyway it's cheaper to post the rods than put it in excess luggage. Now I've purchased some quality telescopic rods, not the same as your real rods but good enough to throw in your suitcase!
Great video gents love the fish care and the explaining of the set ups it really is a pleasure to watch best of luck gents 🎣👌
Thank you. I hope the videos help folks out. 😊👍🏻🎣
Cracking video john, can't beat it 👏
Thanks mate.
great footage John, those rays are something else, nasty sting though!
Yes mate. They’ve caused a lot of pain to a lot of people. Not to be underestimated!
Awesome session John
Cheers Paul. 👍🏻
Brilliant guys, those stingrays are weird creatures, I'd be knackered after just one of them and I cheat fishing reel down and butt pad haha.
Good luck for the rest of the trip 👍
Haha. It’s all good fun. 😉👍🏻🎣
Now thats what i call a holiday ,i always take my smallish telescopic rods with me, I'm happy to catch your baitfish lol ,as they say its not size that matters 🤔 quality upload as usual when you two are together
That's what we usually did. Such fun to catch mullet on a bread flake.
There are loads of smaller fish to catch and such pretty colours. 😊👍🏻🎣
Great video John some awesome fish 👍👍
Thanks mate. Glad you enjoyed the video.
Thanks mate. Glad you enjoyed the video.

Glad you enjoyed the video Sean. 😊👍🏻
Another class video John! And your mate Tom!, really enjoyed watching. Those 'Borg', lots of them here, it's hard to get through them when trying for the Bream, the Spanish call those Bream, 'Sargoe'. All the best mate. 🎣👍. Mark.
Yeah, those Bogue are great bait.
fantastic fishing john ,well done
Thank you Dean
I've just got back from a 7 hour section on the river humber and what a way to spend my evening than watching your videos
Humber any good?

Our pleasure Stu. 😊👍🏻🎣
Thanks so much for sharing mate, really enjoyed watching :)
My pleasure Robert.
Outstanding John, great video 👏
Thanks Mike. 😊👍🏻🎣
Great vid once again stonking ray's 👍
Cheers Phil. 👍🏻
Hi John. I caught a few Ray's and Tope when I was in Lanzarote in December on Mackerel flappers. Great fun but we were in a boat on 6 hours night fishing. Great sport
We couldn’t get any mackerel
@The Fish Locker we caught a few mackerel and other species jigging over the side of the boat. As soon as a Mackerel was caught a baited rod went out for the rays and tope
Nice to actually meet you today at the NEC boat show keep up the vids 😁👍
Glad you enjoyed your day mate. 😊👍🏻🎣
Terrific footage!
Thanks mate.
Some fabulous fish there guys! Well done!
You caught some proper beasts.bet you enjoyed your dinner after a night like that🙂
We sure worked up an appetite 😉👍🏻
Another great fishing adventure.
Thanks Mark.
Great fishing boys! Those stingrays were some sight! Nice skate! Bit dodgy on the rocks though!! Cheers John/Tom excellent fishing👍👍🐠🐠🐠🐠
Aye mate, them rocks are a death trap. 🎣👍🏻
What a lovely Stingray you caught in the daylight
It was a lovely looking fish wasnt it. 😊👍🏻
Thanks John excellent entertainment as usual, great to have met you at Birmingham sorry I insinuated that you chatter to much😂😂
No worries mate. I’m glad you enjoyed the show.
Great fishing lads well done..I'm heading there in 3 weeks time and really appreciate the information on the island..can't wait hopefully I can catch one of the monster's..
Good luck. 😊👍🏻
Now my Sunday is complete 🎣
Enjoy. 😊👍🏻
17:02 was amazing!!!!!!!!!!! Was very worried about your feet on those rocks though!!
They were very slippy.
I never seen anyone fishing barefoot before on the rocks. Greetings from Galicia.
Just incredible, gobsmacked!!!
Great session wasnt it. 😊👍🏻
Brilliant video. Thank you for sharing
My pleasure John.
Fantastic thanks for sharing John👍🎣
My pleasure mate.
The best fuerteventura vid love salinas enjoyed that mate you did well in the conditions top shizzle 😎💚🇬🇧
I’m going over there in the autumn
Hopefully beat my pb 🤣💪
Loved the foraging vid with your boy lobster 🦞 🔥 🤤
Cheers 🍻
Cheers bud. Aye the place has some serious potential.
Proper job lads, I just got back from caleta de fuste had I known the fishing was so good I'd have left the bar for a session.
Missed opportunity there mate.
Cracking video ! Was riveted to it all the way through , Thanks muchly
My pleasure 😊👍🏻
WOW! amazing.. cheers both
Thanks Trig.
Mega video once again guys well in
Thank you very much. 😊👍🏻
Some awesome catches there, congratulations!
Thank you.
17:00 respect to you for properly releasing that fish. I have seen plenty of anglers breaking the leader on purpose, when they figured that they bit more off than they can chew
Nah, I do everything I can to make sure the fish we catch are treated with the upmost care and respect.
Cracking fish thete john. Had many holidays there with scuba diving. Some huge sharks too. Thoughs, stingrays look a bit tricky and dangerous to unhook. Thanks for sharing.
Stingers can be a handful. 🤣
