I normally don't comment, but I'm a student about to go into ecology, and your passion when explaining things makes me feel like I'm just a kid again, being fascinated by nature. Had a rough childhood and your channel is a great comfort, seeing you lovingly interact with James heals my inner child, honestly. Much love and thank you for your content, you are an amazing person and a great father

Come for the fishing, stay for the geology and paleontology education. Well done, John.

What a WONDERFUL place to poke around while waiting for a bite.

Those are so beautiful; you're so lucky!!

Brill video and great article on cart by Tom 👍🎣

Another great video. Didn’t realise another name for Rocking was a slug. Am a bit further north and call them Greenback Eels. Always leave you’re rig knackered

Hi John, That video was very interesting especially the fossil finds.

Welcome back home in Yorkshire. Always enjoy watching your vids especially of our coast. Yes I'm a Yorkshire man and proud one too ✊

Found You Lads By accident!!! I'm an Aussie Based in London. Moved Here from Bali Indonesia with my Gorgeous wife and 2 x Beautiful ❤️ Children. It's men such as yourselves and your podcast - that has helped me Love and Appreciate England! Brian

Two of my most favourite things cod fishing and fossils

What a fabulous video. Thank you.

Real intriguing John right up my street brilliant .All the very best 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

i can't decide what i like more..the fishing or the fossils..aahh what the heck they were both nice...

Thank you again John.

It's a wondrous world eh John. - Thank you for sharing.

love that coast...reminds me of devon, keep up the good work!

What a fantastic piece of the British coastline and so many fossils. Maybe not catching many fish but what a wonderful way to spend time by the sea fishing and fossil hunting

Fossils and fishing!!! All it needed was Haze and it would have been the best video ever!

Very interesting indeed 180 million years old it’s difficult to comprehend those time scales

You are most welcome to send some of that weather to us. Cape Town was hot as hell the past 3 days 😁

this is really absolutely beautiful thanks for sharing ,and stay safe

I've a great appreciation thanks to a dear friend who has been a great help and support to me means alot, who introduced me to your videos John, because of his love of fishing and its a precious memory for him of his Dad and his childhood. As we all forget about this, as we get older and caught up in others things. So much learning information. Cheers and happy new year to you and your family John and Matthew.

7:00 Wow! You took me right back to 1974 and made me feel like a 9-year-old again when I recall my late mother took me and my brother on holiday to the South coast and we went fossil hunting. It was a simple joy that only cost that of a hammer and a bit of petrol and we spent several hours searching. I had completely forgotten about this and it came straight back to me. I think the UK is uniquely blessed (despite its small size) with fossils, and the fact you can find them on a fairly average walk is quite amazing.

Love that area, just one hell of a drive from the south west

Great vid really enjoyed watching as always cheers john 👍

The geology was as interesting add on to the fishing, great vid

Great video again John, and educational 👍

Thanks so much for sharing your day with us. SO very interesting, seeing the fossils and beauiful coastline. You made me miss Yorkshire all over again. We were stationed there for 8 years. Loved it.

Absolutely brilliant.

now that's really awesome ...where I live we have a lot of shale our fossils are usually ferns

Spent my childhood weekends in Robin Hoods Bay and used to be on the beach from dawn to dusk looking for fossils and pieces of jet.

Awesome video as always John. Been great to catch up on the videos after my phone packed up on Xmas day

my son is at college, the tv is all MINE, haha, huge smart tv, to watch Fishlocker on, hehe😊😊💪💪

Nice to see you gone back to your home area , enjoyed the video , pity you never found some jet . ,🙂

Happy Sunday!!! Looks chilly chilly!!

The absolute beauty of the area took my breath away! You explained perfectly the way we look to surf fish off the North Carolina coast. Your fishing partner today was EPIC!!! What a great place to bring the family, especially having Tom there to explain the lay of the layers. Very cool video Sir! Thank you for taking us along!

Matthew sums it up beautifully for me too John. Watched the first bit with my mouth open in wonderment! Don't get me wrong - VERY familiar with coastlines, cliffs etc but... what an education in those few early minutes. My thanks to both you and Tom for that. James will LOVE it! ;-)

Thanks for that great tip on water craft, never would have thought about that. Will give that a look next time I'm out fishing. Thanks!

Very interesting finding the fossil

Brilliant Again John We Are Barmy From Yorkshire Take Care Fella

brill vid john as normal good to see you fishing up north

Great vid - and always so much to learn! Thanks for the geology lesson putting the coastline into context and some coastline watercraft / fish info! Top drawer, thanks gents 👏👏

I am gutted, me and my mate drove past you and the other bloke unpacking the gear, we were looking for a place to fish as well! We had just came from runswick bay but caught nothing so we headed back to Whitby. I thought I recognized you! Glad you had fun fishing up here though. All the best mate.

I AM A FOSSIL viewing from Westcoast Canada! CHEERS

Fascinating. Your knowledge is incredible.

nice and interesting video thanks for sharing John

That was really good John, was amazed with what you were pointing out in the rocks. More of that would be great

Oh my word I've missed being here you know busy takes over Happy 2022 to you and your lovely family and to all here best wishes from Somerset 😊x

Brilliant thanks for the real insights to your local grounds and me and my daughter who is 4 loved the fossil hunting she kept saying look daddy Mr Locker found a dinosaur 😀

Great geology lesson 👍

interesting video thanks for sharing John👍🎣

Not just entertaining but very educational. Excellent.

Most interesting Video John, Love Whitby was there last week.

Very interesting and lovely filming what a cracking start to the new year. A Geology lesson as well as fishing, nice ammonites (used to find them in Galt Clay in quarries in a place called Pitstone Near Tring. As for the fishing, that was the biggest rockling I've ever seen. More of this please!

John, David Something said it all! Thanks for another greT video....looking forward to another great year of videos! 👏

A beautiful, fascinating day all around. As you so effectively demonstrate, fishing is not always about the fish. Like other commenters, your day with Tom on the coast of Yorkshire took me back to my youth, when I spent countless hours exploring the cliffs, rocks, and fishing on the coast of Rhode Island, here in the States. Thank you, John.

Absolutely brilliant. Could watch this for hours. Thanks fish locker!

Another brilliant video highlight to finish the weekend before the working week commences, cheers for all the effort you put in

Thanks John. Loved the fossil hunt!!!!

Hi there The Fish Locker. What a beautiful Yorkshire morning to start your day on the Yorkshire coastline. A perfect way to make this year 2022 a successful year 😊😉.

Very interesting video John.... I miss that coast line Keep up the good work John

A fascinating insight as to what can be found on the coast.

good to see you back up in gods country John !! Its been a hard year up here and patchy to say the least. A daytime codling in flat conditions is a decent result

That video was thoroughly enjoyable, I loved the fact you went back to your homeland and shared the beauty of it with us. I am fortunate to call the south coast my homeland , and my 4yr old daughter loved standing in the Iguanodon foot prints which are on the beach and uncovered at low tide ! priceless childhood memories mate !! Thank you sir 👍🏼

Evolution of ammonites is amazing. Yiu can age them by the suture lines. The more complex the younger they are. Lived for about 400 million years and more closely related to squid, cuttlefish than todays nautilus. The largest were over 2m! Amazing.

It’s been a while since I watched one of your videos John. Boy have I have I been missing out! I’ve always enjoyed your exploring videos the most. You learn so much about the beautiful country that you live in past and present. Thank you so much

What a wonderful wealth of knowledge with regards to this fishing game you have John and may I add extremely interesting! Keep posting the vids John! Thankyou!

Wow. I'm sitting here drooling. Soooo jealous of the ammonites. Fascinating stuff, many thanks!!!!!

Super interesting as always ,stay safe !

that nodule he broke at 21:03 was a piece of flint. really good quality too from the look of it.

Lovely part of the country crazy how many fossils you come across with in such a small area ! Sure you lad would love a couple of them ! Brilliant video as always !

Oh my gosh. Bucket list place. I’m saving money for our family to come here. This is unreal. Thank you so much. ❤. Many hugs and Much love to you all

I remember the good old days beach combing at flamborough head, end of north marine road as a kid, all up Whitby and filey, yes to live rite on the end near south landing at flamborough, I can remember having tea at the table and the light house flashing on the back wall of the dinette whilst eating, ow man I miss those days so much. This post brought back some good old memories for me John lad, some good old memories indeed. I remember hearing the 3 bangs signaling the RNLI guys and fella next door would run out jump in his car and head for north landing on the end of north marine road flamborough and me and my grandad would follow and see them off. I remember as a kid also use to spend many many hours on thornwick bay just looking for washed up bits , I called it treasure as a kid but now I think it’s called pollution🧐🤷🏼‍♂️. I remember my ever first fishing trip out to sea, it was 33 years ago on a boat called ( Rachel Kay ) from bridlington Harbour ) it was freezing and foggy but loved absolutely every minor it, believe it or not the boat is still there in use in the harbour today,!!. I caught my first ever fish , a place, and it was in the pan with some butter a few hours later👍,,,always appreciate your hard work and editing hours a day John and all and always look forward to the next post, best wishes to you and family and all 👍🤝🇬🇧👨🏻‍🍳

Absolutely loved this video, I'm predominantly a lure fisherman so I do a lot of walking and love going to New places and thanks to your videos I'm now walking /fishing with eyes wide open , wether it be bird life , plant life , geology it really is fascinating and when you stop to take it all in ...kinda makes you feel alive ! Thanks John

Hi from Scotland your videos and catch and cook with Jim are Amazing. Hello the Locker family.x

Back on home turf john. Who needs the other Jurassic coast when we've got our own. Racked my brains trying to suss out were you were fishing but not a clue🤣 enjoyed it non the less 👍

Cracking video I really enjoyed that,I would love to live in that part of the world

such an intelligent show you create....ty and this is what i would be glad to show to kids w/o worry of any kind...great stuff mate!

stunning lads great vid amazing view

I hit the like button before I even watched the video, because you have never made a video that wasn’t perfect. Thanks for all the amazing work. Anything about the history of the UK is always my favorite.👍👍👍👍👍👍

Very informative again John, it's great finding stuff like that 😎

Very enjoyable and informative ….I’d never heard of a burbot. Every day is a school day. Thanks John. I think James could happily search that beach for his dinosaur treasures.

Not only do we get a cracking educational video on fishing we also get a lesson on Geology! Love it.. 👍👍

You'd have calves like Jack grealish after bringing back that many fossils after a few sessions on that mark . 🤣

Brilliant episode there mate. My area of the country as well. 😊 God's own country for sure!

Brilliant John keep it up mate

Hi john you ok mate. I enjoyed that . Its amazing how many fossils there is on the coast. All the best from grimsby.

Great quality footage John, and very interesting, many Thanks 🎣🐟🐠

Didn’t expect a geology lesson but nice surprise. Pyrite is fascinating stuff and one of its many interesting facets is its use as a firestone, as Tom demonstrated with his hammer!

Great video John. My brother was a geologist back in the 60,s and the house was full of fossils. My dad made him move them out in case the ceilings came down. I think the natural history museum have a lot of them now. All the best

Happy new year love ur videos me and the kids does well done

Hi mr fish locker. My younger brother and I are a big fan of your videos. We watch you every day. I just wanted to tell you that the larger ammonite you found is called a hildoceras ammonite ;)

Great fishing. Happy new year John. Great video again very interesting. Thank you for sharing and all the time and hard work you and others put in. Have a great 2022. All the best to James and Hanna. I really enjoy your videos. Best regards. Dave Something about being out.

More top work John. As always…another school day. Brilliant content 👌❤️

Excellent video, amazing so many fossils just everywhere

Another great video both thanks for sharing

I always forget just how freaking cool fossils are; then a video like this comes along and reminds me :)

Great fishing. Happy new year John
