This is a video about foraging for lobsters, spider crabs and prime summer prawns in Pembrokeshire and Carmarthenshire in Wales UK, along with my usual educational aspect.Part of this video was filmed and published on my friends channel (Kris Harbour) in July of 2017. It was very successful having over 2m views. This along with my first video with Kris have over 3m views between them . The reason they were published on Kris's channel was for me to gauge public reaction via the comments section. This proved quite flattering and provided me with the confidence to commence my "Coastal Foraging Courses" and launch my own channel. There is much new and unseen footage in this video. I am fortunate enough to have almost 68,000 subscribers to my channel and I feel that many of them will not have seen the extracts from 2017. I am really pleased to say that my coastal foraging business has gone from strength to strength with customers travelling from all over the world to attend. I have appeared on BBC Radio 4 's "Open Country" (Aug 2018) a shout out on BBC Radio 2 "Steve Wright in the Afternoon" (Aug 2 ,2019). ITV 's "Coast and Country" (June 2019), features in "Wanderlust" magazine, "Welsh Coastal Living" ,"Country Living " magazine, "Pit " magazine with my latest feature in this months(Dec 19) "BBC Good Food " magazine . I have recorded 2 episodes on coastal foraging for BBC radio Wales, which will be broadcast in January and April of next year. There will also be features published in "Coast " magazine in the Spring with further plans for features in "Country Life " magazine after the journalist and renowned sea food writer "Mike Warner" comes for a visit soon, in fact I recommend that anybody with a passion and interest in sea food visit his blog "East Coast Avocet" I'd like to thank Kris Harbour for the initial filming and editing in 2017 , Jack of "Expedition Jack" for the opening sequences. Jon Berg of "Digital Tiger" for subsequent filming and the editing and my eldest son Anthony for filming some of the spider crab and prawn sequences.
I'd like to add that the reason so many spider crabs appear in the video, is because there were so many that I had to remove them to get at the prawns that were hiding behind them. Only 3 were eaten. The rest were all returned to the pools alive to complete their moulting process and harden their shells.
