MayDay ‘24

1st of May 2024
Let’s celebrate MayDay with an angling session, always keeping in mind: in Ireland the first of May is also the first day of summer.
With Dietrich Bohnhorst

Hello Dietrich, just back from a fishing trip and it was hard fishing as you experience my friend, but the last one was a real beauty from sure, thanks for the video, thumbs up and greetings from NZ,, Tony.

[@DietrichBohnhorst]

Thank you, Tony. Sometimes persistence is the answer. Take care, have a good time and greetings from Donegal, Ireland.

[@donal3426]

Good man Dietrich, something for the pan at least. Well done sir

[@DietrichBohnhorst]

Thank you, Donal. They are pretty good actually, these rainbows, taste wise. Take care.

[@SUPERFRUITL00PS]

its good to hear a screaming reel

[@DietrichBohnhorst]

That's right. Thank you for watching.

[@robertgreen5217]

Hard going indeed, but at least a feed.🍺🍺👍

[@DietrichBohnhorst]

A feed is right, Robert. And it was a feast too. All the best and cheers.

Well done man , never give up ! Those stocked rainbows put up a good fight and you caught him on a Soldier Palmer , I know you have fished that fly for Salmon what size hook was used on this fly. It's never a bad idea to change up on fly selection when things are slow . I have a fly I named red headed sister it' it's an orange and reddish fly with a ginger hackle silver ribbed on a size 12 Daichi 1270 curved hook. I like it because I can see it well from a distance , It has saved my day a few times when things are slow . Hang in there Dietrich your persistence will pay off with a large Irish Brown trout, but you follow up on that with a nice pint , cheers !

[@DietrichBohnhorst]

Thank you, Jim. Never give up is right. Have a good time and may the Red Headed Sister give you loads more fish. Cheers.

[@DietrichBohnhorst]

[@robertjones-yo4ql]

WELL DONE GOOD SIR . ALL THE BEST

[@DietrichBohnhorst]

Thank you, Robert and all the best to you too.

[@tomjones7593]

Bad luck indeed- hard to get any interest in those conditions; seems to be the way of things in 'Spring' these days, I'm afraid.

[@DietrichBohnhorst]

There seems to be an endless supply of easterly winds these days. And after that there is the heatwave. Things have changed, Tom. Thank you for watching and all the best.

[@gerhardschwarz7666]

Hallo dietrich mit welchem wetter können wir rechnen

[@DietrichBohnhorst]

Habe gerade den Bericht gesehen: sonnig, 19 Grad, wenig Regen und Wind mit Suedwest Wetterlage. Trotzdem das Regenzeug mitbringen; ist eben Irland.

[@gerhardschwarz7666]

Na klar ist ja auch kein Problem ein paar Tropfen werden wir schon verkraften und regenzeug ist ja sowieso dabei bis gleich

[@gerhardschwarz7666]
