[@samhubbard8419]

Awesome video! More like this please!. One for the archives of each fish species would be class

We used to call small perch " footies" in Manchester!

I caught a 4lb 2oz perch from jumbles reservoir in the early 90s, I’m sure that fish will be at least 10lb if still alive! 75ft deep means there could be monsters in there…….

[@AnglingTimesMag]

That’s a giant. Great work. 🎣

[@deathfromabove592]

LOL it was probably an old fish at that weight.. it doesnt work like that mate but nice fish none the less.

Whats the canal roach bream hybrid record my mate had 1 about 5.5lb and ive had 1 over 3lb the record is 7lb from a river but i reckon were going to brake the record this year

[@samuelgarrod8327]

As far as I know there isn't one. Probably because hybrids can hybridise again, a roach/Bream hybrid may hybridise with a bream or a roach. DNA is the only way to find out.

Used to fish Joe's pond in the early 90s we used to get 2 3 4lbers all the time never knew a place with so many huge fish were in. my biggest was nearly 5lb and we saw one we reckon 9 to 10lbs 6 people saw it it wasn't a Zander .Never saw any perch that size ever. At the time this pond was probably the best around .average small perch was 1lb .We could get 20 2 to 3lbers or more all the time .

[@AnglingTimesMag]

Those are giant perch! There's no doubt waters with hidden UK record fish out there.

[@deathfromabove592]

How big was this pond? I find it highely unlikely that fish like that wouldnt get caught ever and identified and weighed. Unless joes pond was actually a loch in scotland lol.. the tales in this comments section is hilarious.

[@nospoon4799]

There are not many things as exiting in angling as getting bit by big perch on lures.

Which ‘Top 5’ would you like to see next? 🤔🎣

[@Darren14]

River pike. Not pike caught in trout reservoirs

[@SteveMartin1971]

Tench as they're sooo slow growing and the record is very unlikely to get beaten again .

[@trevorchapman9050]

Love to see a gudgeon masterclass!

[@AnglingTimesMag]

@@trevorchapman9050 we will get on to it! 😉🎣

[@AnglingTimesMag]

@@Darren14 thanks. We will have a look through the archives so we can get that one out when we are back on the rivers again. 🎣

[@batmanimal5993]

When you reel in a bunch of maggots on a single hook it spins in the water and looks like squid 🐙

[@DaveAyton8565]

Crucian Carp please

[@AnglingTimesMag]

Great choice Dave. We will have a look in the archive. Can already remember some mega catches. 🎣
