St.Patrick’s Day Fishing on Lough Derg in Ireland - My IPhone went for a swim !

This was a crazy session! From start to finish things were all over the place, although there was some fantastic fish landed, every little thing seemed to go wrong which had me laughing for a finish.
I hope ye enjoy this video it’s slightly longer than normal but I left in all the small parts to keep it as real as can be!

Love the videos. Look forward to the year ahead 😊

[@rorydempsey700]

Just came across the channel yesterday. Serious content lad, love the videos and the commentary. It’s fair educational for someone who has no experience with fishing

[@senanstanleyfishing]

Thanks pal, hopefully it will inspire new anglers to get out and give it a go ☘️

[@danielbialek9750]

Unpredictable Lough Derg, you never know what and how big beast you will catch, almost like a no-lose lottery. Absolutely my favorite place

[@mrmccann8890]

What a day's fishing man 👌 Absolutely sickening about the phone though, you'll have to get out the scuba diving gear to try find it 😂

[@jwestrik9308]

Impressive unit of a Pike. I got exhausted just looking at the fight. Nice classic looking boat. And nice iphone, sorry...

[@senanstanleyfishing]

Thank you! Ya I had a dead arm trying to bully the fish in, couldn’t force it with the light braid ☺️

[@eimearosullivan9548]

Great video , Great fight , lovely fish on the light gear... well done 👏

[@yep.fishing]

Looking forward to this :)

Boat's lookng great, Senan. Great gear review and excellent fishing as usual! Keep up the good work.

[@senanstanleyfishing]

Thank you Garrett! Wasn’t the most productive session so I’m looking forward to the rest of the year, just nice to get back on my own boat 👌🎣

[@waynedavies5569]

Hi Senan, Enjoyed your video fishing a variety of lures. An amazing fight with that massive Pike …especially on the light spinning tackle. Best regards, Wayne 😀👍

[@senanstanleyfishing]

Thanks Wayne, it was a bit of a crazy day ☺️🎣

[@kieran3237]

Congratulations on the 5k subscribers Senan,unreal and well deserved.Brutal about the Iphone..,just one of those feckin days.Those pike were huge.Thanks for video..

Thanks Kieran ! Was a crazy day, I tried not too sound too miserable in the video but I was fuming 😂😂😂

[@kieran3237]

​@@senanstanleyfishingi feckin bet..brutal luck..on the positive side though isn't it a great feeling to have the boat back on the water again..love it.

Thanks joe, they are hard to avoid at times when trout fishing, tricky to find then with actually targeting them 😁👍

I copped it after a while that the top eye was wrapped, that added to my frustration 😂😂😂

Bit of an unpredictable day haha

@@senanstanleyfishing i hope you don't really care about phone. There are more important things in live

[@senanstanleyfishing]

Absolutely it’s only a materialistic thing.

[@oilbol]

Bigger net would be a asset to have in the boat at all times, you never know don't you.. Sorry to hear about your phone do. Tight line Senan as it was a great start of the Derg season.

[@senanstanleyfishing]

Of course, these things always happen when least expected, that’s just fishing. I’m not too fussed about the pike there’s plenty more of them around, the phone was annoying though 😂

Great to see you back out on the water. Nightmare about the phone 🤬😡... Great content as always some cracking fish . What speed does your 8hp push your boat , is it 19ft. Looking forward for more videos 🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣🐊🐊🐊🐊🐊🐊

[@senanstanleyfishing]

Thanks Richie! Nice to be back on my own, can’t beat it. 👌 it makes about 8-9 mph, not super fast but it’s a light boat so it flys along, Yep 19ft Sheelin, she’s a little beast. Thanks pal ☘️🎣👍

[@Cavanpikefishing]

Ah man some day for ya just not the day maybe next one will be good hope you get your new phone sorted out looking forward for this giveaway all so some lovely fish there to God bless 😊

[@senanstanleyfishing]

Got the phone sorted eventually man, thanks for watching ☺️👌

[@derekmilton4761]

great video Senan, huge pike on small lures! did u use the twitch trolling method for all?

[@senanstanleyfishing]

Thanks derek, nearly all yes, arm went dead after a while so kept putting the rod in the holder 😂👍

Oh it happens to us all 😎👍

[@stevenvanbouwel6462]

Been on dergh a few times now. Never caught a trout. At what speed do you trawl for them? Greetings from belgium.

[@senanstanleyfishing]

So there’s no right or wrong speed for trout, but you do need to go fast, constantly accelerating with the outboard gets them to strike at the lures 👍

[@stevenvanbouwel6462]

@@senanstanleyfishing ok thx. Hope to get there in september. Try to get trout again 😜😅

[@senanstanleyfishing]

September is a super time for the trout, that’s one of my favourite months to get them spinning on the lake ☺️👍

Just wondering did u ever go fishing in the brosna in kilbeggan

I’ve fished other stretches of the Brosna but never up that far 👍

Ye I'm just starting fishing and it is near me so will see what I can catch there

I also am finding your videos so entertaining and am learning along the way

what length is your boat Senan

[@senanstanleyfishing]

The boat is 19ft 🐟

[@TheHuntTrio]

where did u get those rod holders could really use one oar holes arent the best

[@senanstanleyfishing]

Scotty rod holders from Wildhunter.ie 👍

[@GameCastCubed]

I'm thinking of buying a 14ft dory would it be big enough to go on Lough Ree. It has a cabin which I like but should I go for a traditional lake boat safety wise if I plan going on lakes

[@kieran3237]

Hiya,hope you dont mind me throwing in the 2cent advice here...if you fishing on a big lake I'd advise using a 19ft lake boat,much safer in wind and when churn is up.I have an Anglers fancy and i love it.

[@GameCastCubed]

@@kieran3237 I already have a 14ft cabin boat which I use on the Shannon but thought the dory might suit. But I think I'll stick to your advice and wait to get a sheelin or something similar Thanks anyways

[@kieran3237]

@@GameCastCubed senan has a sheelan,lovely boat as well,i was in the same situation as you a few yrs back when buying a boat,i owned a shetland 17ft which i used on lough derg..i changed to an anglers fancy 19ft and i love it,i have a yamaha 9.9 hp on it and its safe and great for fishing. The Sheelin would be the same.

[@senanstanleyfishing]

I’m sure you would be fine in a calm day but Lough ree is probably the wildest lake in Ireland, it’s so open and exposed the wind can pick up at any moment, whatever you decide on just make sure you’re happy with the safety of it first ☺️👌🎣

[@GameCastCubed]

​@@kieran3237 I'm just after buying an anglers fancy 19ft bought it off a carpenter all the timber was replaced. can't wait to go out on it

[@denisryan4984]

@@senanstanleyfishing no doubt Senan. No luck today however. iPhone lures are like the rest of mine lately… blank!

[@senanstanleyfishing]

Coming into spring now them fish will become a lot more active 👌

[@fishing365]

Fish will run when you loosen the drag right off. No need to take so long playing it. Fish strong enough tackle so you don’t loose them.

[@senanstanleyfishing]

Jay I don’t think you understood that this was trout fishing gear hence the 0.10mm braid, pike were not the target species, hence loosening the drag, you have to do these things when you hook a big fish. No need for stronger tackle than I used in this video, it’s perfect for trout trolling, maybe you’re not used to big Lough fishing so you might not understand. If I wanted to catch pike I would have used my pike tackle.

[@fishing365]

Fair play. It was a nice fish. Look forward to more videos.

[@senanstanleyfishing]

Thanks buddy, lots more to come this year, il stop targeting the pike when I see the first signs of spawning, will be another week or two here anyway, zero marks on them today. Trout then for the next month 👌

[@patcunningham6672]

Great video Senan,keep that bigger net you have on the boat at all times lol
