For large ground planes, you gotta preheat the board. In a pinch you can use a hot air gun, but a temperature controlled hot air station is much preferred to not turn it into a charcoal briquette.
Double ironing is another trick to get extra heat into stubborn pins, along with some low melt solder to dilute the old stuff.
If you're done asking nicely, you can use a Hakko 551 lol. That thing gets so hot it glows red in the dark.
