The Given Trout

September 2023
September already, would you believe it?Just a few more weeks and it is all over again for another year. That’s why I love spring so much. I am a spring person.Everything is so optimistic in springtime.
With Dietrich Bohnhorst

[@waikarimoana]

Hello Dietrich,, hard day fishing today but a nice one landed at the end of the day and it is sad getting close to the end of season my friend.Thanks for sharing, thumbs up and greetings from NZ,, Tony.

[@DietrichBohnhorst]

Thank you so much again, Tony. Yes, it is over soon enough now, hopefully the trout have a good spawning season and we can start again next year with our usual enthusiasm. All the best and greetings to New Zealand.

Immer schön meine zweite Heimat Irland zu sehen und die Freude die das fischen dort bereitet. Wer weiß vielleicht läuft man sich mal über den Weg wenn Du in der Nähe vom Lough Arrow bist gib gerne Bescheid :)

[@DietrichBohnhorst]

Bald ist ja Weisswurstzeit und ich freu mich schon drauf. Als Halbbayer auch kein Wunder. Dieses Jahr werde ich's wohl nicht mehr zum Lough Arrow schaffen, aber die naechste saison sollten wir mal im Auge behalten. In dem Sinne viele Gruesse aus Donegal und alles Gute.

[@jwestrik9308]

I prefer spring time too. But planting a few apple trees there is always autumn to look out for...

[@DietrichBohnhorst]

That's right. Have a few apple trees in the garden too and they are the very best, compared to the stuff you get in the supermarkets. So, lets enjoy the autum, it's part of our lifes too. All the best.

[@GrumpyAndCricket]

Great outing, Yes I have had similar fishing experiences. Thank you!

[@DietrichBohnhorst]

Thanking you, sir and all the best, have a good time.

[@gerhardschwarz7666]

Und wieder schlag auf Schlag und dann noch der gaumenschmaus vielleicht haben wir nächstes jahr auch soviel Glück mit den jaffls bis dann

[@DietrichBohnhorst]

Genau, Gerhard und vielleicht koennen wir ja im naechsten Jahr auch wieder irgendwo ein paar Forellen fangen und die Truppe damit ernaehren. Machs gut und viele Gruesse nach Fuerth.

[@davidfitzgerald9484]

I never have anything other than a Sooty Olive on the tail - most reliable fly. Hope we get another few videos before season end. Keep up the good work.

[@DietrichBohnhorst]

It surely is a good fly, David. There will be one or two more little movies before the season is over, which is so very soon, I'm afraid. Thank you for watching and tight lines.

[@harrybrown9948]

Great editing. Very entertaining. So peaceful

[@DietrichBohnhorst]

Thank you, sir. Glad that you like the little movie.

[@melvynwood2824]

Fished slug last year. Lots of fish. Need to do it again some day. All the best my friend.

[@DietrichBohnhorst]

Thank you, Melvin. Whenever you are over just let me know and we can have a bit of a fishing session. All the best and cheers.

[@cuansmusic]

Spooky music with the coming of autumn!

[@DietrichBohnhorst]

That's it Cuan. Another season is more or less done and dusted. All the best and may we meeet soon.

[@martin7955]

Love that it's so empty by that water

[@DietrichBohnhorst]

That is one of the great things about angling in Donegal, very often you have the entire lake to yourself. Cheers and all the best.

[@PatrickBrowne-h4s]

En joyed your latest video watching it on holiday in portugal

[@DietrichBohnhorst]

Thank you, enjoy the holidays in Portugal and all the best, cheers.

[@raftonpounder6696]

A self-sufficient man! Excellent.

[@DietrichBohnhorst]

Thank you, sir. Self sufficiency is somehow one ingredient for happiness. All the best and cheers.

[@DavidMorseMcMahon]

Really enjoyed that video Dietrich, I also have a great liking for the Sooty Olive, hopefully we will get a few more videos before you retire your trour rod for the season, as always take care and good luck to you. Dave Mac.

[@DietrichBohnhorst]

Thank you, Dave and thank you for watching and liking our little movie. It is almost over for another year now, so, may the winter be a short one. Have a good time and all the best.

[@heyjim52]

I do not have a Sooty Olive but I will get to work on tying one soon, the end of the season where I live is still a month away at the end of October . Well done Dietrich once the trout season ends it's time for Pike ! I think I am going to fish for Perch this fall they are tasty and a bit larger this time of year. Great video my friend.

[@DietrichBohnhorst]

Thank you, Jim. Having a Sooty Olive is not a bad idea, particularly in April, well, that's what I think. Fishing for perch sounds good and perch fillet fried in butter is really very tasty. Have a good time and tight lines.

The good life 👍🍺🍺

[@DietrichBohnhorst]

That's right, Robert. Thank you for watching.

[@DriveTime01-r9v]

Brilliant well done

[@DietrichBohnhorst]

Thank you, sir and thank you for watching.

[@ciarancassidy203]

Fished that first lake last week , nothing but small fish , heard rumours that it was netted in the past , but who knows

[@DietrichBohnhorst]

That lake used to be one of the very best in the region, however, after the windmills were put up in the late 90s it all changed and it was more or less empty for many years and is only now coming back a little bit. Thank you for watching Ciaran and have a good time.

[@fisherman5517]

at least you caught a fish so not a wasted journey.

[@DietrichBohnhorst]

Was very lucky to get that one. Tank you for watching and all the best.

[@robertjones-yo4ql]

EXCELLENT

[@DietrichBohnhorst]

Thank you, sir. All the best and take care.

[@simonburrows1467]

Oh dear, Autumn on the way but anything "Given". is to be thankful for. I am going to spend the next two weeks in Falmouth, I hope I shall be "Given" some fresh seafood.

[@DietrichBohnhorst]

I'm sure you'll succeed, Simon. Have a good time in Falmouth, enjoy the seafood and everything else. Greetings from Donegal.

[@chrisjourdan2474]

est ce que l'été existe chez vous?

[@uncle22578]

where do you buy your fishing flies

[@DietrichBohnhorst]

They are all tied by myself or my fishing friends.

[@peterweston189]

I don't think I've ever seen you change out the bibio?! Do you ever use nymphs? Do you just find that traditional wet flies work so well etc?

[@DietrichBohnhorst]

Had no Bibio with me, forgot to put one into my fly box and was too lazy to change the cast the next day. I use nymphs in rivers alright, Peter, however, lake fishing and traditional wet flies go together, for me anyway. Thank you for watching and all the best.

[@YvonneBowe]

The small and the quick

[@DietrichBohnhorst]

That's true.

[@iristantow8891]

Oh noch ein neues?

[@DietrichBohnhorst]

Genau, bevor die Saison vorbei ist.

[@Burnersforvanlife]

Nice one!

[@DietrichBohnhorst]

Thank you, Dave.

[@Маматимати]

can you try to catch atlantic salmon on river Finn

[@DietrichBohnhorst]

Maybe next season, providing the river is open.
