- If anyone wants to see another of our coastal exploring videos. Here is a video about my the town and area I grew up in. 😊👍🏻🦀🌿 th-cam.com/video/QdHUASZbhRc/w-d-xo.html
- It is my pleasure Floyd. I understand that not many people can get out to enjoy the open air or the sound of the birds. So we are doing what we can to share it. This was my first morning walk in near 7 weeks and I must say I needed it. This really blew the stresses of the past few weeks away. Take care mate and stay safe. :)
Seeing you out and about, enjoying that lovely scenery, puts a smile on my often grumpy face. Thank you so much for "taking us" along, and always doing your best to not only entertain, but also educate us. Best wishes.
- It is my pleasure. I am glad that you could join me. I understand that not everyone is able to get out and enjoy the open air or the birds and plants. So we will do our best to share with them what we can. :)
On a slightly overcast Sunday morning,I can't think of a better way to start the day than your coastal commentary.I've recommended it to several friends with young children to compliment their home schooling.Such a natural,engaging and informative narration.Thanks John,its brilliant.
SapphireDazed - I am so very glad that we can share these videos with you and that they help to bring you peace. Especially during these stressful times. Take care. 😊
These little videos take me back 40 years to being a little girl in rural Pennsylvania, walking through our woods with my father as he pointed out birds , plants, or signs of animals. It's very nice. Thank you.
Hard week at work, get home, open a beer and find a Fish Locker upload... Tremendous stuff... What a way to relax ! Thanks John, and all the best to the family.
Lovely walk today!!! Thank you for taking us along...the flowers...the birds singing and the ocean sounds....simply enchanting. So perfectly peaceful. Blessings to you and yours! 😊🍀🌷🐟🐠🎣🦀
- It really is my pleasure. I know that not many people are able to enjoy the open air or the sounds of nature right now so we are doing our best to share. Take care, give our best to your family and stay safe. :)
You are an absolute wealth of knowledge and so fun to watch and listen to!! Thank you for your time and effort. Hope you and yours are well and able to finally get out! Be well and have a great weekend!!
- Thank you Linda. I am glad that we can share our videos with you all. We are still having to be very careful but hopefully things are getting safer. Take care and stay safe. :)
Thank you John for such a great walk. I'm an old guy and don't get around much without my canes, so this was a great treat. You are one of my favorite stops on You Tube. I wish I could join you on your adventures, but will have to settle with the You Tube ones. keep up the great videos and God bless you and your fine family. Paul Carlson
I absolutely loved this video! It had all my favourites, trees, flowers, birds, rocks, and shore line. Loved the cliff fall. I would be in heaven looking around the rocks. May late Daddy taught me a lot about nature. I got my love of nature from him. He also told me : "When you go walking in nature, the only thing you should leave behind are your footprints," I live by that. Thank you so much for this video. 😊💖🇨🇦
Delightful, thanks! Your coast, the sea and shore plants, looks very similar to here in the islands of NW Washington, USA. I enjoyed your walk and listening to your lilt and the birdsong came through fabulously.
Deborah Martyn - Thank you Deborah, it is our pleasure to be able to share this walk with you. I find it really interesting to hear of the similarities in species in different areas. Take care and have a nice day. 😊👍🏻
- I always enjoy learning about the wildlife in new places. Even if it isn't the same as where I live. Best wishes to you and your family and have a nice weekend. :)
Stuning!!!!!! What a place. Grate spot to go for a lovely erly morning walk. I would give an arm and a leg to live by the sea. I live pritty much the furthest away from any beach in the country. Your right as well u really would think you was In the Mediterranean by the colour of the sea. Grate vid mate loved every second of it. Glad ya hone safe and your all keeping safe and well. 🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣
Make me feel like I am with you, hearing your footsteps, the waves, birds, just a bit of a shame that you can't do a bit of lure fishing while you are there. All the best John and keep safe. 👍👍👍🎣🎣🎣
- I'm glad you could join me Glen, and yes. It was a shame I couldn't bring the rod with me. Lets hope the restrictions have relaxed a bit by the next time. :)
The fresh haircut was an instant give away that you are finally Home:-) I hope all is well with James and Liz, lovely little walk and a bundle of information as always, thanks John.
- Thanks Fred. Yes that was one of the first jobs on the list. I was beginning to feel like a hippy. lol. Glad you enjoyed the video. Hopefully theres some useful info in there for folks. :)
Thanks John, absolutely brilliant. For those of us who can’t get to the sea or shore, your videos are a godsend. Please keep the beach and cliff walks coming mate.
It's great when you can get out early like that i love it listening to the birds all chatting away, i am not a forager but i love looking at the different things growing and early is also a good time to see many different insects crossing the pathways great video John i will view the other one you have put on; you have a great view in front of you looking out to sea. I Hope you and the family are all okay so stay safe stay well and keep the video's coming, god you know your stuff i will have to buy myself a good book on the wild plants and flowers so i can try some but being 70 and disabled its not to easy to get around but i will never give up; bless you all stay safe stay well till next time. Best wishes from Manchester.
- Thank you Fred, I do love this time of year, and there is no better time of day to enjoy it. The knowledge and information I share has been built u over a lifetime of bits here and there. I wish there was one book I could recommend but there isn't. Take care mate and stay safe. :)
Walking in the light rain, seeing nature, beautiful flowers, birds singing is adorned with the scent of rain that touches all this beauty, as if you are walking inside a beautiful painting. Hear the steps on the sands of the sea with waves sound as if ASMR Thanks for the beautiful video and valuable information. Stay safe💐
tkaa tkaa - It really is our pleasure. We understand that not everyone can enjoy the open air and the sounds nature right now. At a time when it is most needed. So we do what we can to share.
This whole situation has made me understand I don't live close enough to the coast ( 20 min drive). The only better thing than going for an early morning walk along the coast is to get an early morning fishing session in. Hope the families well and thanks for the upload.
Thank you so much. I am an old codger but your little nature walk reminded me of the fantastic times we had at our little school high in the pennines back in the 50's. Amazing how many of the plants you showed us are the same. We had a teacher who loved to teach us about nature. It never leaves you and how satisfying it is to walk and recognise, rather than just walk. Thank you so much for sharing.
- It really is our pleasure to be able to share these videos with you. Simply knowing that they have helped take you back to that happy time is enough to make the video worth making. Take care and stay safe you "Old Codger" Haha
The bluebells, her favourite flowers, made me sorely miss my English friend whom I haven't heard from for quite some time now. She hails from Lancashire. Anyway, thank you yet another terrific exploration video. Enjoyed it a lot as a botany aficionado.
Simone de B. - I’m glad you enjoyed the video Simone. This will be very crude for anyone who is hot on their botany but I hope it helps some folks out. 😊👍🏻🌿
I dont know why i find your videos that are so relaxing. After watching your videos 4 to 5 times a day it puts me in a good sleep. Continue to make satisfying videos. 😊
Vitalyzd TV - I am really so pleased to hear that our videos are helping to bring you peace and calm. At a time in the world when that is truly needed. We will continue to make them as often as we can. Take care. 😊👍🏻
Hello John, been watching your videos for a while now and I've even got friends & family tuning in. Keep up the great work. The foraging videos are always great.
- Thank you James, I really do appreciate you sharing the videos and channel on with folks. I am glad that you could join me for my morning walk. ;) Take care mate and have a great weekend. :)
- You and me both. I really needed this today. Its the first morning walk Ive been able to have in near 7 weeks and its really blown the stresses of the past few weeks away. I'm glad you could join me. :)
Our neighbour in her 70's gave us a tub of shooting bulbs to plant that she'd pulled from her garden. We ended up in the next year with 2 big iris plants and a shed load of those snow bell things. Turns out it's illegal to cultivate them in the UK as it's an invasive species. Pulled them out and having a taste (after finding out what they were) it was a very pleasant suprise, all of the plant tastes like a mild garlic crossed with spring onion with a peppery kick. Very nice tasting forage, especially if you have as many as you do down there. Thank you for the upload.
That was wonderful, I recognised a lot of plants from my childhood, it’s a lovely time of year and I think definitely a great time of day. More like this please, your local area is beautiful. 👍
- Thank you Kerry. I do love getting out at this time of day. If I can manage to explore any other areas I will. We are restricted to how far we can go and how long we are allowed out for. But I will do what I can. :D
Lovely little bay bet there are a few fishy's that come in there. We often call the cow parsnip, cow parsley here . A friend put that in his mouth once that did not end well, turns out he was allergic to it his brother strimmined it years later that put him in hospital covered in blisters.
- It is very bitter stuff to be eaten raw. I've seen people have reactions to stuff like that. One lad was cutting a conifer hedge with a strimmer and didn't realise he was allergic to it. He got hospitalised. That little mark is a fine spot to fish. I will be returning with the rods when we are allowed - I haven't fished it in years. Take care mate. I hear you lads are ok for going out in the boat now?
I only remember the day I was crossing a side shoot off the river tees on a fallen tree and fell off onto the bank right into a nettle patch in shorts and tshirt and not being able to find any damn doc leaves, arms and legs drove me mental on the way home....
I could watch 100 videos like this! So relaxing. So calming. Thank you. And thank Hannah for taking care of all at home so you could come out early to make this video! Thank you.
- We are just trying to share what we love doing. I know a lot of people aren't able to enjoy the open air or the sounds of the birds - and people could really use a bit of destress tight now. So we try and share what we can. Take care Ian and have a nice weekend. :)
Nice one John and yes what a lovely morning made a nice change from fishing 🎣 even though it did look 👀 perfect to put a hook in the water 💦.Stay safe look forward to the next one
Not jealous at all... :-) What an amazing place to go for a wander. That opening scene was straight out of my "heaven dream' Congratulations on yet another wonderful and informative video.
- I thought you might enjoy this one mate. ;) It was almost painful that I didn't have the rods with me. But still a truly enjoyable walk, certainly blew the stresses of the past few weeks away. :)
I probably have walked hundreds of paths similar to this but I never knew what I was looking at, now I have names to things, I will either bore or impress the kids to death, thanks. The light there is amazing too, glad your home safe with the family, all the best from Wales
Blimey, Jeff from Peep Show, you've come along way since JLB But seriously though, awesome channel. Cornwall is my favourite place in England, if people haven't been to the swimming pool built into the cliff at Porthtowan, I recommend!
The Fish Locker I don’t see the resemblance lol you’re definitely much more handsome and I’m sure your wife is well aware, your little one is just as adorable as his parents 🙂 amazing video and stay safe!
ah man this reminds me of walking round in the old feilds no one uses and making forts in the ditches, but i know whjat im doing tomorrow morning hahah, but ill bring my rod, missed a nice bass couple days ago D:
@@TheFishLocker aye thank ya lad, if i get a few ill be sure to send a few pics, generally the evening flood is the best where i live though so maybe the mornings are just for walks
I'm so happy to see you are back home with your wife and fish locker Jr. I absolutely love all of your videos especially this one. Looking forward to Future videos and finds.
jossy - I am glad you enjoyed our video Jossy. I hope you find the rest of our content good viewing. If you have any questions just leave us a comment and I’ll get back to you. 😊👍🏻
This will probably get buried but I've recently stumbled across your channel and binge watched hours of your videos, you are a great teacher and give a great insight into coastal ecology and sustainable harvesting practices. As an environmental consultant born and bred in Cornwall with a strong fishing background, you're a breath of fresh air to watch! Hope you're having a good time scavenging in Falmouth, you've earned yourself a sub!
- Thank you very much and welcome to our channel. We are simply sharing what we know and love doing. I truly hope that our videos may encourage others to take and interest in the natural world and how better to care for it. :)
Kyra N - It is our pleasure Kyra. My wife has been asked to make some ASMR style videos to help with peoples anxiety etc. I don’t know if it’s your type of thing but here is the link just in case. 😊m.th-cam.com/channels/jEjJ1dCevp_kShRHV9nyzQ.html
Thank you! What a beautiful melodious morning . I'm happy to hear that you're back home and all is well! I also noticed that you got your ears lowered (hair cut) ha ha! Good show💙
A Link - Haha. I haven’t heard it called that in year. Yes I’ve had a slight trim. Far more streamlined now. 😉 Much happier to have us all under one roof again. 😊👍🏻
Another enjoyable video bit of escapism. And great that you are back at home. Always found it strange that foxglove is used to treat heart failure and yet causes death by heart failure.
Teresa Truman - It is our pleasure Teresa. We are simply sharing what we know and love doing. I know that not many people can get out to enjoy these things right now. And they are needed now more than ever, so we do what we can to share. Take care. 😊
Thanks John for a lovely relaxing video..perfect! Lovely to hear the wren and learn about Alexanders.. Just what we needed. Glad your home safe mate. All the best..
Thank you for taking us with you on this botanical walk. Very much enjoyed... the trails and flora. God Speed you can get home soon with your precious family. Glad we can keep you company in the meantime.
Hello again Whitby lad. Nice to see you out and about. Hope the missus, and especially that little lad are both safe and well. Hopefully we will not be too long before we can fish again. You can walk down there, bassing and I can walk to the Brig for a codling or two. Good early signs for boating here too. I look forward to seeing you landing a fish soon. Keep up the good work!
Thank you for your videos, very relaxing and so interesting. Really glad I found your channel, especially in these times. Please keep up the good work, and the foraging + beach cook ups especially ;), very much appreciated!!!
Well glad to see your home safe and well and hope all the family are too??To be honest John can tell just by your smile home is where the heart is cause family makes us complete sort of like a missing jigsaw piece when wer not there if you know what I’m getting at.Such a beautiful walk and a bundle of information as always your such a true gentleman pal keep me mesmerised ever time I watch so thanks John for getting us all through this👍🏻Give my best to the family atb from Scotland
What a treat taking a walk with you along the shore, seeing the flora and getting an education to boot. I just got home from the night shift and you shared a piece (peace) of heaven. Thank you.
- It is my pleasure Terri, I am just sharing what I know and love doing - I am glad you could join me. Do you watch other vids to relax? My wife has been asked to make some ASMR style videos at home to help with peoples anxiety etc. I don't know if its your type of thing, but here is the link just in case. th-cam.com/channels/jEjJ1dCevp_kShRHV9nyzQ.html
@@TheFishLocker I watch a variety of videos. Cooking, crocheting, baseball, show bloopers, comedy bits. All manner of things. I'll check out your wife's vids. Thanks. Peace and good health to you and yours.
Thanks John, absolutely brilliant. For those of us who can’t get to the sea or shore, your videos are a godsend. Please keep the beach and cliff walks coming mate.
I know that look John when you make it to the beach and mentioned about the lures and the rod, I can see it in your eyes "Why I didn't took the lure rod and few lures". Fantastic session again. Stay safe, you and your family.
What a truly fantastic walk! Thank you for sharing your local area and your extensive knowledge. Beautiful scenery & sounds--I could almost smell the beach.
Wonderful walk. So glad to have been able to share it with you. And it’s great to hear that you are back with the family! I hope everyone is healthy and happy!
- Thank you Maggie. It really is great to have us all under one roof again. This morning walk really was what I needed. It instantly blew away the stresses of the past few weeks. Im so glad I could share it with you. :)
My friend, you have a real quality to your presentation style, me and many others genuinely appreciate what you do. Anybody the fails to agree that first light in Spring is without doubt the most wonderful time of day is simply not able to appreciate what nature offers.
Galaxy Pig - That is wonderful to hear. I am glad you enjoyed the video and could join me for my walk. Best wishes to you and your good lady and have a nice day. 😊👍🏻🌿
fantastic video man, and you’re 100% right about seaweed. there’s no known seaweeds that are even mildly toxic. the problem is that there’s other types of algae that are highly toxic so it’s still pretty dangerous for novices to eat anything that looks like seaweed
Chuck Finn - Thank you for the fact check Chuck and the added info is very helpful to anyone reading the comments. Thank you. 😊👍🏻🌿 if one doubt, don’t eat it. 😉

- It is very bitter stuff to be eaten raw. I've seen people have reactions to stuff like that. One lad was cutting a conifer hedge with a strimmer and didn't realise he was allergic to it. He got hospitalised. That little mark is a fine spot to fish. I will be returning with the rods when we are allowed - I haven't fished it in years. Take care mate. I hear you lads are ok for going out in the boat now?
@@TheFishLocker Yes from tomorrow during the 2 hrs daily exercise but obviously if infection goes up again they will fully lock down again
Trojs Fishing - 2 hours out on the boat max? Ah well you might get a few pots out. Let’s hope the infection rate stays low.
@@TheFishLocker That's 2hrs for recreational fishing not boats with a licence they have always been allowed out
Very nice walk; thanks from a cold Sweden ❤️🙋🏼
Anki Olebring - It is our pleasure. Take care and stay safe. 😊
You’re so blessed to live in such a beautiful area. That’s like my dream. I bet the water is COLD, though!
Lisa G - Haha. I didn’t dip a toe but I bet it is. 😆
The Fish Locker are you still on quarantine, or have you reunited with your family?
Lisa G - We are all back under one roof now. So I am a very happy man. 😊👍🏻
Great video! Thanks for sharing! Glad your home safely!
Lawanda White - Thank you Lawanda. Yes I am very glad to be home safe. 😊
The doc leaf was an essential part of my survival when i was a kid.
dougsmcv - Haha. Mine to. 😆
LoL...me too, many a time
I only remember the day I was crossing a side shoot off the river tees on a fallen tree and fell off onto the bank right into a nettle patch in shorts and tshirt and not being able to find any damn doc leaves, arms and legs drove me mental on the way home....
I could watch 100 videos like this! So relaxing. So calming. Thank you. And thank Hannah for taking care of all at home so you could come out early to make this video! Thank you.
Thank you Maria, I am glad that you enjoyed the video. Best wishes and have a lively evening. 😊
Our beautiful Cornwall! :-)
- It is a wonderful place. Especially as there are nearly no tourists here right now. :P
Marvellous stuff John.
Robin Bradley - I’m glad you enjoyed it Robin. Take care and enjoy your evening. 😊
Loved the walk my mate. Your a star in this Lockdown.......
- We are just trying to share what we love doing. I know a lot of people aren't able to enjoy the open air or the sounds of the birds - and people could really use a bit of destress tight now. So we try and share what we can. Take care Ian and have a nice weekend. :)
Nice one John and yes what a lovely morning made a nice change from fishing 🎣 even though it did look 👀 perfect to put a hook in the water 💦.Stay safe look forward to the next one
Andrew Mclauchlin - Yes Andrew it would have been a perfect morning for fishing. Hopefully soon.
Not jealous at all... :-)
What an amazing place to go for a wander. That opening scene was straight out of my "heaven dream' Congratulations on yet another wonderful and informative video.
- I thought you might enjoy this one mate. ;) It was almost painful that I didn't have the rods with me. But still a truly enjoyable walk, certainly blew the stresses of the past few weeks away. :)
Thanks for taking us along on your walk! Blessings!
Teresa McGuire - It is our pleasure Teresa. 😊
I probably have walked hundreds of paths similar to this but I never knew what I was looking at, now I have names to things, I will either bore or impress the kids to death, thanks. The light there is amazing too, glad your home safe with the family, all the best from Wales
- Haha. If they are anything like our teenage daughter, you will be the most uncool parent ever and sooo boring. ;)
😃😃
Living in Cornwall myself and being a chef its a great video to watch thank you.
ross coad - It is our pleasure. 😊👍🏻
Blimey, Jeff from Peep Show, you've come along way since JLB
But seriously though, awesome channel. Cornwall is my favourite place in England, if people haven't been to the swimming pool built into the cliff at Porthtowan, I recommend!
- That is honestly the first time anyone has compared me to him. I even had to google who it was. lol. Take care Ed. :D
The Fish Locker I don’t see the resemblance lol you’re definitely much more handsome and I’m sure your wife is well aware, your little one is just as adorable as his parents 🙂 amazing video and stay safe!
Another great video well done.
montrocon - Thank you. 😊
I went for my run past that beach at that time, I think I missed ya
Joshua Strange - I was probably hidden in a bush.
Very good video I love the way you described every plant.
Miguel Sán Tru - There are so many I had to leave out. I didn’t have enough time. There will be more in other videos. 😊👍🏻
ah man this reminds me of walking round in the old feilds no one uses and making forts in the ditches, but i know whjat im doing tomorrow morning hahah, but ill bring my rod, missed a nice bass couple days ago D:
- We still aren't allowed to fish here in the UK yet. Hopefully it won't be long now before we can get out with the rods. Take care and good luck. ;)
@@TheFishLocker aye thank ya lad, if i get a few ill be sure to send a few pics, generally the evening flood is the best where i live though so maybe the mornings are just for walks
Loving all the exploration videos! Learning so much about nature! 😊
Gtmj - I am glad you are enjoying the videos. 😊
8:10 Crithmum maritimum, here the name is "Κρίταμο/kritamo", and they are very tasty! :)
- That is interesting. I like learning about the similarities in other places. :)
Your video give me the best sound of this day.
domenico - We are glad you enjoyed the video. 😊👍🏻
First
- Well done. Let me know when you've watched the video. ;)
I'm so happy to see you are back home with your wife and fish locker Jr. I absolutely love all of your videos especially this one. Looking forward to Future videos and finds.
- It is so good to have us all under one roof again. Im glad you enjoyed the video. I really enjoyed my morning walk. : )
@@TheFishLocker when will you be able to go foraging again?
Mommie Minnesota - We will see how it goes. If I can do it safely and within my allowed time then yes. 😊👍🏻
I thought “wild edibles” meant something else😂
I ate your kind of wild edible this morning 😉
VorboteDesKrieg - I don't know what that means.... and I'm afraid to ask.
- You sir, have a rude mind. :P
@@TheFishLocker unless I'm mistaken, the _wild edibles_ being referred to are of the cannabis variety.
Kowboy USA - Fair enough. Well that would be why I didn’t get the reference. 😉
Thanks for taking us on your morning stroll. I enjoyed it!
Motorcycle Mikel - I am glad you could join me Mikel.
I really enjoyed your video. I thought it was vary relaxing and that it was vary educational! I will definitely watch more of your videos
jossy - I am glad you enjoyed our video Jossy. I hope you find the rest of our content good viewing. If you have any questions just leave us a comment and I’ll get back to you. 😊👍🏻
This will probably get buried but I've recently stumbled across your channel and binge watched hours of your videos, you are a great teacher and give a great insight into coastal ecology and sustainable harvesting practices. As an environmental consultant born and bred in Cornwall with a strong fishing background, you're a breath of fresh air to watch! Hope you're having a good time scavenging in Falmouth, you've earned yourself a sub!
- Thank you very much and welcome to our channel. We are simply sharing what we know and love doing. I truly hope that our videos may encourage others to take and interest in the natural world and how better to care for it. :)
I always enjoy watching your videos it’s very relaxing to me. Thank you for all you do.
Kyra N - It is our pleasure Kyra. My wife has been asked to make some ASMR style videos to help with peoples anxiety etc. I don’t know if it’s your type of thing but here is the link just in case. 😊m.th-cam.com/channels/jEjJ1dCevp_kShRHV9nyzQ.html
Thank you! What a beautiful melodious morning . I'm happy to hear that you're back home and all is well! I also noticed that you got your ears lowered (hair cut) ha ha! Good show💙
A Link - Haha. I haven’t heard it called that in year. Yes I’ve had a slight trim. Far more streamlined now. 😉 Much happier to have us all under one roof again. 😊👍🏻
Yes, favorite time of day! Beautiful morning there with birds singing and lovely flora. Thank you!

Beautiful location. You are one lucky guy!
Daniel Butler - Thank you David. It is a wonderful place. 😊
Another enjoyable video bit of escapism. And great that you are back at home. Always found it strange that foxglove is used to treat heart failure and yet causes death by heart failure.
Crazy Slaine - Just goes to show. Too much of anything is a bad thing 😉😛
Thank you for sharing the stunning scenery and the information on the flora and fauna. Your videos are always entertaining and educational. :)
Teresa Truman - It is our pleasure Teresa. We are simply sharing what we know and love doing. I know that not many people can get out to enjoy these things right now. And they are needed now more than ever, so we do what we can to share. Take care. 😊

Brenda Barnes - We are so happy to have us all under one roof again.
Hello again Whitby lad. Nice to see you out and about. Hope the missus, and especially that little lad are both safe and well. Hopefully we will not be too long before we can fish again. You can walk down there, bassing and I can walk to the Brig for a codling or two. Good early signs for boating here too. I look forward to seeing you landing a fish soon. Keep up the good work!
Alan Brain - Fingers crossed we will be allowed our fishing soon mate.
Thank you for your videos, very relaxing and so interesting. Really glad I found your channel, especially in these times. Please keep up the good work, and the foraging + beach cook ups especially ;), very much appreciated!!!

James Wilson - It is our pleasure to be able to share these things with you James. Take care mate. 😊
What a treat taking a walk with you along the shore, seeing the flora and getting an education to boot. I just got home from the night shift and you shared a piece (peace) of heaven. Thank you.
- It is my pleasure Terri, I am just sharing what I know and love doing - I am glad you could join me. Do you watch other vids to relax? My wife has been asked to make some ASMR style videos at home to help with peoples anxiety etc. I don't know if its your type of thing, but here is the link just in case. th-cam.com/channels/jEjJ1dCevp_kShRHV9nyzQ.html
@@TheFishLocker I watch a variety of videos. Cooking, crocheting, baseball, show bloopers, comedy bits. All manner of things. I'll check out your wife's vids. Thanks. Peace and good health to you and yours.
many thanks for sharing John, can't wait for this lockdown to end so can get back to the coast.
Ian Phillips - Tell me about it. I think the fish will have forgotten who I am by the time we get back out. 😛
Thanks John, absolutely brilliant. For those of us who can’t get to the sea or shore, your videos are a godsend. Please keep the beach and cliff walks coming mate.
Mick Adams - We will do what we can Mick. Take care. 😊
I know that look John when you make it to the beach and mentioned about the lures and the rod, I can see it in your eyes "Why I didn't took the lure rod and few lures". Fantastic session again. Stay safe, you and your family.
Ivan Topchiyski - I would have loved to but we are still not allowed to go fishing here in the UK. Hopefully soon.
What a beautiful spot.I really enjoyed the walk John...
the kid - I am glad you could join me. 😊
What a truly fantastic walk! Thank you for sharing your local area and your extensive knowledge. Beautiful scenery & sounds--I could almost smell the beach.
- It really is my pleasure Brenda, I am just sharing what I know and love with people who enjoy the same things. :D
Wonderful walk. So glad to have been able to share it with you. And it’s great to hear that you are back with the family! I hope everyone is healthy and happy!
- Thank you Maggie. It really is great to have us all under one roof again. This morning walk really was what I needed. It instantly blew away the stresses of the past few weeks. Im so glad I could share it with you. :)
My friend, you have a real quality to your presentation style, me and many others genuinely appreciate what you do. Anybody the fails to agree that first light in Spring is without doubt the most wonderful time of day is simply not able to appreciate what nature offers.
- I have said a few times to folks that if I have to explain whats so special about it, you wouldn't get it anyway.
The wife and I both really enjoyed this bit of early morning with John! The edible plant stuff is great! Keep it up! Much love from Tulsa, Oklahoma!
Galaxy Pig - That is wonderful to hear. I am glad you enjoyed the video and could join me for my walk. Best wishes to you and your good lady and have a nice day. 😊👍🏻🌿
Spectacular walk. Thanks for taking us along
- It is my pleasure. I am glad that you could join me. :D
fantastic video man, and you’re 100% right about seaweed. there’s no known seaweeds that are even mildly toxic. the problem is that there’s other types of algae that are highly toxic so it’s still pretty dangerous for novices to eat anything that looks like seaweed
Chuck Finn - Thank you for the fact check Chuck and the added info is very helpful to anyone reading the comments. Thank you. 😊👍🏻🌿 if one doubt, don’t eat it. 😉
