Thanks everyone for watching and all the cool comments. As you can probably tell I was extremely happy to catch these 2 wonderful Pike. Hopefully I'm not waiting 20 years until I get my next PB.
Wow 20 years to catch a 20+ you must of been fishing all the wrong places congratulations on beating your pb twice on the same day 👍 mines a 27lb on my second trip out this season in a marina my first year fishing for pike this year I've always been a carp fishing man and lure fishing for trout and perch but am getting more into predator fishing now and going for the pike 😁
It took 20 years but I wasn’t fishing for 15 of those. Back in early 2000s I was mainly carp fishing all year round with the odd pike trip up to Cavan. In 2005 my daughter was born so I cut back on my weekends. Then I was forced to sell all my fishing gear in 2008. So I’m only really a year or so back at it. And this year was my first properly targeting pike and fishing different lakes. So although my last PB was m 2004 I haven’t really targeted them until now. Well done on the 27lb that’s still a fish of a lifetime to some.
Congratulations on what was a red letter day for you, the smile on your face says it all, keep up the great videos please as they are a pleasure to watch.
Thank you Karl! Will do!
Brilliant day out and very well deserved! So pleased for you. 👍👍
Thank you so much 😀
Welcome to the 20 club m8 😊 what a days fishing it will live with u forever congrats 👏 🎣🎣🎣🎣
Cheer Chris 👍🏻 yeah it was a super session. Still can’t believe it.
I was nearly crying when ya got it 😅 brilliant catch and brilliant video dude love it
Cheers Chris 👍🏻
Bring it on, Steve !! 🥳...
Buzzing for you bud! These rare days are what make pike fishing magic! Seeing all your videos you’ve put in more than enough effort and hard work to deserve a day like this! Bring on the 30!! 👍
It's been an enjoyable slog 😜 But I don;t think I've had a better feeling in fishing. My PB Carp is 39lb 10oz but that was from a french water. I don't think there is any comparison to catching a big Pike.
Well done Steve delighted for ye, know u put in some work well deserved. Nice chatting to you Thursday evening.
Cheers John, Yeah good chatting to you. I was going to fish Ramor but then got to fish this place instead. Glad I did now. 😀Did you have any luck after I left?
Well done, savage fish
thanks 👍
Congratulations, Steve, on the new pb. Two cracking fish. Your face says it all. 👍
Thanks Robert 👍 yeah I was delighted to have landed them especially on the same session.
Congratulations on the PB 👌 few years in the making that, well deserved after the last few episodes
It was a long time coming alright. 👍🏻
Delighted for you when it happens it happens. My PB stands at 19lb 15oz for 23 yrs....still waiting to join the 20's club...my young lad already has a 22lb 4oz under his belt....
Thanks Oliver. The fishing Gods can sometimes be cruel but they can also shine on you even if it is for just 20mins 😉Keep the faith I'm sure that big girl is just around the corner. Most of the fun is in trying. 🎣
Oliver , I admire your integrity, there are some who would add the ounce on & call it good... 😂
I'm kinda in a similar situation, my 10y.o. pb is 27lbs 12oz... looking at the pic, you could say it was bigger... but I know it wasn't ... 🤔
@@FishingwithSteveIreland Out today on a water that I know holds 20's...only one jack so far but you just never know...
@@peterfitzpatrick7032 I willed those scales to give me the 20 but wasn't to be, will make it all the better if I break the barrier..😀
@@olivercd1 Thats it , Oliver... 🙂

@FishingwithSteveIreland can't see that steve I had one today 12.08 only person to catch today 🎣👊💯
@@karlwatkins2331 Hard goin, Karl, after 15 odd blanks in the last 6 weeks, I'm taking a break, throwin away deadbaits isn't great fun when ye don't even get a beep from 'em.. 😠
Never seen so much feckin rain... 🙄

That's brilliant, congratulations on two beautiful pike

Somethin tells me you'll be back there, Steve... 😏
Enjoy the dopamine hit, it was a long time coming... and enjoy a few JDs to celebrate.. wish I'd been there to see it... my present pb (27.75lbs) was celebrated alone too... dancing in a field and laughing hysterically... 😂😂😂
What a way to start the new year, mate ... 👏😏
Tight lines and I await the next episode !
😎👍☘️🍺
Cheers Peter, Thanks for watching long. I was on my own but i think thats why I like making these videos its a great way of sharing the ups and downs of your fishing trips.
@@FishingwithSteveIreland I'm a Dub living in Mayo and my 2 nearest waters (Gara and Urlaur) are ballbreakers, after that its over to Ros & Leitrim ..
I'm thinkin after a break, in the first week of Feb I'll be bivvying up for 2 or 3 days and go to war with 'em!... 🐳🐳🐋🐋
😎👍☘️🍺
@@FishingwithSteveIreland The Actor boat is great but you need a spare battery, preferably a 10000mAh batteriy, the 5000 supplied with the boat doesn't last long... when I got my boat, they accidentally left one of EACH inside it !!...
I didn't know why it was pulling to one side every time I launched it until I looked deep inside... 😂👍
@peterfitzpatrick7032 drop me an email to fishingwithsteve1@gmail.com and I’ll drop you some info.
@@FishingwithSteveIreland 😎👍
Brilliant mate, well done....bet you're still buzzing!
Cheers Mark 👍🏻 I am still a bit. Great to get it in film as well. I must have watched it 20 times again. 😂😂
Welcome to the 20 club dude haha next stop, 30!
Hopefully it won’t take 20years 😂
@@FishingwithSteveIreland Not in that spot it won't 👀 Probably the best hole in Ireland hahaha That lake can be a ballbreaker but it's worth the blanks.
Amazing catches Steve 2 pbs in 20 minutes 😊 the feeling you get when you break your pb is special but then to break the 20lb barrier is a feeling like no other the realisation when you had her in the net deadly feeling well done 👏🏻 🐊
Cheers, I think I was in shock when I got the 23. I was still buzzing from the PB and just couldn’t believe it when I caught the 2nd one. Took me about an hour to pack up. I couldn’t think straight 😂
@@FishingwithSteveIreland fantastic 😃

Congratulations Steve.. well in 💪🏼
Cheers 👍🏻
Congrats on your double PB and thank you for sharing this epic stage in angler's life (not only a catch of the week) with us. BTW great video skills and hats off to your effort and all that equipment. Gonna watch the video again and have a sip of Jameson.
Appreciate it! Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment and feedback. I’m glad you enjoyed the video. Cheers 🥃
Hopefully you have a lot more good days ahead. Iv only started to watch your videos today, no pun intended but im hooked. You have the kit and seem to be putting the time in so well deserved. Whats the odds on getting peters number privately off you for a day ticket.
Cheers, I’m glad you’re enjoying the videos. I don’t have a number for the fishery I contacted them through their Facebook page. Drop me an email fishingwithsteve1@gmail.com
Great effort Steve. Get on that water as much as you can. Fishing like that will not last forever before the bigger fish die off or it gets overfished. Make the most of it and enjoy. Cavan monaghan armagh tyrone and fermanagh are all home to waters with giant pike. The fish in those drumlin loughs have the right genetics environment and plenty of food. Trouble is they get fished out if word gets out and big predators both pike and perch are vulnerable to damage in the wrong hands. Make the most of that water and enjoy. Good luck and tight lines
Cheers John, I plan on getting back there again very soon.
This particular water is extremely hard as is all trout waters John. It’s allready overfished but not as bad as some other trout waters. 30 euro a day to fish…. No thanks
Great video 🙌
Cheers! thanks for watching 👍
Fantastic buddy well done 👏
Thanks 👍
Yes ! Yes! Yes! Incredible Steve
Big thanks to you too. 😜
Both great fish well done 👏🎣
Thanks 👍
Amazing! Pleased for you Steve, I’m on a quest to catch my first double this year! great video 👌
Thanks John 👍 Best of luck on your quest for a Double.
Class 👏 its a unbelievable feeling when you land a monster
Thanks Peadar. no better feeling!! I’m still buzzing
Very well done.Cracking pike.
Nice one Eoin cheers 👍🏻
Let’s go Steve love the vids!!
Thanks Josh, Glad you're enjoying the videos.
those pike are incredible, truly amazing! well done!
Thanks a lot! 👍🏻
I fished here myself with a mate and we had nothing but a 5lber in an 8hr session, Happy days for you though glad you could get a big 20 out of it
Great video Steve. Fair play
Thanks Dave 👍🏻 Glad you enjoyed it
great fishing great video💪
Thanks 👍 glad you enjoyed it
Well done steve excellent stuff
Cheers Ray. 😁
Red letter day pal. Well done on those pair of absolute crocs 🐊 delighted for ye👍👍
Thanks Max 👍
Delighted for you Steve, I've wanted to fish that water for the longest time, must get out on it ASAP!! Great fishing! *EEL
Cheers Paj, It's a serious water alright. I'm getting greedy now. Want to head back to try get one of those 30's. 😉
@@FishingwithSteveIreland hahay fishing buddy has me under serious pressure to go there, but I've a hankering to get to the river suck. Once the water level goes down
Congrats on making a New Personal Best! I had also broke my PB and I was very Happy to break it, I know the feeling too. Great video as well!
No better feeling in Fishing especially if its stood for a long time. Congrats on your PB 👏
Great video Steve congrats on the pb
Thanks Sean 👍
Well done buddy, most of us would be lucky to catch those 2 in 10years nevermind 10mins!! What a session. Bet your still dreaming about it!! It's worth grinding out all those blank days and shitty weather for moments like that. You could also have lost your bait as well with the low battery so it just shows that fortune favours the brave.
Still buzzing from it. I think I was in shock when I landed the 2nd Pike. It was definitely a risk with the boat but the wind was in my favour had it run out of battery so it was a bit of a calculated risk.
Brilliant vid, really enjoyed it. Congrats on your first twenty, I'm still waiting for my first twenty after forty years!!
Cheers Lee! Best of luck on your first 20 I’m sure it’ll come.
Great catch, must be great to have your first 20 on video👍👏
It was a bit surreal but felt amazing 👍🏻
A bit late but well done Steve.
Thanks 👍🏻 much appreciated
what a beauty :) Well done m8
Cheers Paul 👍🏻
Deadly video Ste congrats on the new PB mate 👊

Well done Steve, great video and a couple of class pike 🎣
Thanks James 👍
Well done 👏

Amazing well Done
Thank you! Cheers!
Nice video, special lake is a correct description..
Thanks! It sure is Peter. 👍🏻
Great vid m8y ,and many congrats on your new pb ,end of feb early march she will be a few pounds heavier ,keep at it 😊
Thanks!! That's the plan! Fingers crossed 🤞🏻
Well Steve how are ye looking for some advice thinking about heading to a lake around the midlands or Cavan area will be spinning from the bank if you’ve any suggestions of any where to go would be much appreciated thanks and congrats on the pb
Give Ramor a go. Only recently started fishing there but should be perfect for all types of pike fishing and you’ve a chance at a big girl or 2 as well.
Well done on the Pb. I hope you don’t get the trout water bug mate 😂😂.
Trout water bug wouldn’t be a bad thing if it’s going to throw up those type of fish. 😂
uk is so weird in fishing though.. in holland if i drive 1 hour im on the other side of the country (that aswell) and we dont have day tickets... its all open water.. exept for a few small carp ponds.
I'm in Ireland rather than the UK and most of our lakes are natural and open to the public. This particular lake is run by a club who stock it with trout for fly fishing. The pike grow very big in here because of that. The club charge a day rate to fish to cover the maintenance of the lake and the restocking of trout. Unfortunately where I live is also not great for Pike fishing so I have to travel 1-3 hours aways to fish good venues.
@@FishingwithSteveIreland Well it looks like a fun lake with fish like those in there.. there isnt much stocked fish over here.. but i fish some gravel pits with my jon boat that have no land acces for fishing.. Most spots i fish dont have any other fishing pressure,..I went out on the vens today and caught 21 pike on softbaits.. they were on the bite!
Nice vid mate. Are you using the baitrunner with drop off indicatiors? Does that not defeat the point of drop offs that are designed to be fishing with an open bail arm? Otherwise may as well just use a standard bobbin
Had the drop offs for that reason to drop off. For most of the day I had a strong north westerly blowing directly into my face. I had the sensitivity on the alarms turned right down but it was still driving me mad beeping. So I used the bailarm with bait runner to give me some extra tension and stop the wind from setting my bite alarms off. It was the only thing that was working for me.
Chuffed for you Steve
Fired me up now I'm out as soon as I'm not coughing to death
Cheers. Hope you’re feeling better and on the bank soon. Tight lines
As unhealthy as Irish waters are these days, pike are one species which seem to continue to thrive. Very hardy, probably since they’re opportunistic feeders. Trout stocks across the ireland and uk have been decimated since they can only survive in a much more narrow niche
Yeah this is a stocked trout water. So the pike that were in there have a constantly replenished food source, which is why this lake produces such good fish.
Congrats well done How's the heart after that lol
It wasn’t great for a few hours Larry. 😜
Too expensive.. rather try a public venue , but well done on the PB
Thanks. It is a bit pricey if you were going to be fishing there every week. But I had to give it a go once I heard about it. Glad I did.
@@FishingwithSteveIreland yea same , but didn't see it worth it .. 30 euro and then fuel to get up there , while passing some great waters .. but the appeal of known there is 30s in it I would probably give it another go sometime around spawning
Really liked the video, but the whole concept of a private lake where they can charge you for fishing baffles me...we have hundreds of thousands of lakes in Canada and not one is private!
Thanks for the comment Dave, and I'm glad you enjoyed the Video.
We don't have many private/club run waters that hold pike like this in Ireland, so that's why thats I gave it a go. I would usually fish our many public waters for my pike fishing. However we have major issues on our public waters with large amounts of fish being removed and killed. Which isn't sustainable.
So unfortunately the numbers of large Pike like these, on smaller public lakes, are now very rare. You will get larger specimens caught regularly on the larger loughs but very few on these smaller lakes.
I put the quality of fishing on this lake down to it being a club run water that is regularly stocked with trout for the members who fish it all year round. It's also very well looked after and patrolled daily by members to ensure that it's not being poached.
That maintenance and stocking all costs money for the club, who then have to charge a day ticket to anglers to cover the costs. So I personally don't mind doing that if it allows for the quality of lakes like this to continue operating and offering chances for anglers like me to catch unbelievable pike.
