Hi John, great ling and great vid. Please can you tell us what nrod and reel you are using on each trip. Please state also, the line breaking strain and the type of knots you are using. Tight lines.
Just had a pretty tough weekend one way and another . Half an hour in the bath watching another fantastic video makes you realise it not all bad out there in this crazy world. Cheers John.
John, I took my 5 year old grandson on out boat at the weekend for the first time, he loved it and never stopped asking questions as they do. Anyway picked him up from school today, checked in on him as he was so quiet, there he was watching one if your videos on fishing filleting. Is this where my fish comes from grandad was the question, yes love said I. I love fish he says. Great videos as ever. Regards Col
My Sunday is compleat. Just shows how much work you put into giving us great videos. Been out all day with my brother and a friend, no fish on a par with yours but that doesn’t matter. Wonderful weather and great company what more could you want. Thanks for your efforts John and enjoy the fish.
There are so many sides to you I think the easiest way to put it is that you are thoughtful to a fault, your generosity of spirit constantly in so many ways will never cease to surprise me. Thank You for being you, oh and by the way your ears don't shine too much 😂😂😂😂😂
Hi John, "you've the patience of an oyster "as my uncle used to say, I enjoyed the trip, the anticipation the excitement of what you might catch gives you all the energy you need, anyway thanks for the vlog.👍
My god what a fish your one ov the best on RUclips with your fishing and your dives and your knowledge great fishing family love it .you are going to big with what you get upto
As I keep saying, we are simply sharing what we know and love doing. Simple, honest and original videos that hopefully the whole family can enjoy. 😊👍🏻🎣
Your so right mate as you know I have been following your videos for some time your doing it the right way thanks for your time 🙏 keep up the good work my frend and god bless 🙌 you
Can we have more of Jim cooking up some of your catches?not that I dont enjoy your catching videos but its great seeing what Jim cooks up for you and the family!
In all the time I've been watching you on your fab channel, I've never seen you so chuffed with one fish,well hunted and caught,makes it so much sweeter when you eventually prevail, keep em coming john,all the best
Great video upload. The live bait you caught at the beginning were fish many of us buy at local shops and markets. I thought they were the ideal size. The eels you caught were impressive. Always find myself being impressed with eels being caught. Always remember one of the first times I tasted eel it was deep friends and coated in batter. Out of this world. Lots of bones though. But the taste was superb. You certainly have a lot of luck when going on these fishing trips. An entertaining and enjoyable video upload. Thank you for sharing.
Good day. My 2 year old son enjoying your vlogs especially about sea shells & crabs. He's happy also seeing your son & your wife at your vlogs. Hope more videos with clams.
Due to recent work, I've had to catch up to your episodes by binge watching. Nice to be able to get back to your channel. Nice fish and its always good when you get one of your target species!
Awesome to see you back home and having fun still. I've actually started seeing someone from America. We've waited 15 years but are now saving for her to come over to Australia for a visit.
Just wanted to say Love the content and keep up the good work, love seeing Cornwall in all its beauty I’ve not been since a kid and some of my greatest memories are from down there, hope you and the locker family are well and I wish you all the best 👍🏻
Hi John still following from Qatar but have to laugh you go out on your own, to these wrecks bring up monster eels, bring them on the boat, and tell them to calm down, I would be running away and launching the life boat. Total credit to you.
Great viewing bud as always we have a club here in cork ireland luv to have you over rebel county SAC make for great viewing..and b a pleasure to have you over bud..fishing not to bad either
Thank you John , I take my cap off to you sir for that stealy determination and patience you showed to finally bag the fish you’d targeted. Your smile and jubilation said it all 😎Great conditions out there mate,no better place to be, appreciate your efforts as always 👍🏼👍🏼
They are even more Tropical fish looking than the iconic Neon.. how can I be nearly 50yrs of age and never knew we had such a beautiful fish! Wow.. just wow.
Amazing how similar the ling cod was to the conger eel. And those eels were huge. I imagine some local fish shop would've loved to have them. Happy you got your ling in the end. Thing looked almost as long as the beam of your boat.
fantastic video as usual mate really enjoy watching and feel like iam there on your boat hoping you will get a bite. so relaxing to me. hope you have a good week to fella
Good lad John you fought for that one double bubble for me fella the team I love stayed up by the skin of their teeth and another quality vid from me fav channel. Still lovin your stuff mate keep em coming please

Perseverance pays off target species achieved. Not without a bit of a struggle but you got there. Beautifully filmed and as always instructive. Loved the male cuckoo wrasse at the beginning, remarkable colouring. Thanks for posting. The next one I watch will be from Paignton.
Nice Ling....too many straps and dogs to get through but it all payed off in the end. There be some fillet off that one. All the best and hi to Hannah and James. The freezer will stock with that. Enjoy and tight lines.
