- Join Alfie Russell as he catches specimen perch live for the camera and recounts some of the absolutely incredible hits of perch he has had from the unlikeliest of places. #drennanspecialist
Lovely video- no ego trip or anything. The enjoyment shines out of his eyes- well done!
Nicely shot. Gotta love a big perch.
From one Alfie to another. That was a great video. See you on the bank.
Love this video. Clearly has a big passion for big perch 🎣
Nice video, would of liked to have seen your set up for the float though.
Alfie
They are some fantastic fish. Great to see them being caught. My local reservoir has some really big perch but being 100acres it can be a task to speci hunt them. If you ever fancy another river you do well on the Trent or Wye
My best fish I've ever caught was a big perch. I was in awe truly. It was over the lea, fairly industrialised part but my local really. Remember using the biggest worm I've ever seen collected from my garden. I was convinced nothing big enough would take it, but I gave it a go anyway. It was afternoon, the river was quiet and few people about. Used a bob float which I since lost sadly. It's funny, as a bob float has a big surface area...so when it's under you know it's gotta be something worthy. When hooked I was sure it was a carp. In fact I had two attempts, and on the second time that bob skidded across and under to the far bank it was hooked. Unless you've had a really big perch you can't understand the experience. I guess it's probably cos all the ones you've ever caught, even the bigger ones are dwarfed by the biggy........that's the specimen you've dreamed of. That perch from that part of the river, which had been and is now, like a lot of waters under pressure from various factors including pollution. So for a large perch to survive is even more amazing. I wonder if any remain now..........I hope so....

Amazing fish and a quality video I wish it was longer watched it so many times lol
Well done and thanks, everything seems to be Carp Carp with young anglers these days but catching a specimen Perch or Roach etc etc can be so rewarding. For many people their first fish was often a Perch, mine was, fantastic fish and a great clip.
I've watched this video so many times
I'm in aw of the beasts.
Some angler mush
I love when a fisherman get obsessed about one fish in particular ...
Thousands of fish out there , and just you get hooked by one !!!
Beautiful video thanks for sharing!
Brilliant fishing that Tommy. You've found a real venue there. Got something similar near us in Lancashire but fish run to about 2lbs. Good head of roach too. Real fishing on real venue. Having to work for the catch is great fun. Keep it up, great video.
Brilliant video mate, well done!
What a cracking little video for several reasons ,a big perch is a stunning looking fish, the location urban canals and rivers, not some tucked away private water so available to anybody, then there is the angler Alfie, a young chap who obviously loves fishing and not just for carp and takes you through the video explaining things as it progresses, angling needs more exposure with people like Alfie who will appeal to youngsters to encourage them to try it for themselves.
Just found this clip mate - what great dangling ! Cracking fish - thanks for sharing !!
Some amazing looking Perch in this video 👍🤯
Great video with some stonking stripeys. I really would just love a fish of 2 pounds or more, these ones you have caught are stunning, looks like you've really put the work in too. Well done and tight lines!...
Awesome video Alfie mate 🎣 can't wait to land a big perch one day tight lines fella
Fair Play to you mate. Brilliant job 👍
Excellent vid Alfie, the big ones really are very fine looking predators. The biggest ‘Redfin’ ive seen caught in oz were taken by a bloke using live minnow under a float. Cheers.
Great video loved it.🦈🦈🦈
Great work really good
Good work Alfie!
Great fish great fisherman
What a film this is
Your video production quality is absolutely insane. Well done. One of the best videos out there.
Now ive caught some rippers I'm hooked.
Do you have your own channel and they where some beautiful english river perch mate sound like you had a session of a lifetime 😎
Well done lad. Awesome!
Lovely fish👍
wow..just wow
Great video
Great video!
Good video really enjoyed it 👍
Quality video!
This guy reminds me of Professor Green
amazing video I love fishing the same venues for predators on artificial baits keep up the good work 🦈
Absolutely brilliant video bud those are some really nice specimen perch there I love perch fishing with a passion but very very hard to get anything near those sizes where I am what's your preferred method of bait?
Always had my biggest on dead baits ,live minnows and lobs but fish baits are the best.
Great video. For me, this is what fishing is all about... realy nice! What rod do you use? Hope to see more videos from you...
Nice!!
Great fishing bud but what 3 baits would you use...
Cool video
CMON DRENNAN DONT LET THIS KID GO LIKE "NASH" N KICK HIM TO THE DIRT, THIS KID HAS NATURAL TALENT, look at all the other kids of his age, out pushing god knows what........love his vlogs, let the kid shine.............
p.s im no kid im 45 & i like watching the kid fish!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
nice vid well done
What is the rod Choice? Drennan....?
Wow! Interesting crayfish are a food source
Whats the bait? I use live bleak, got 41cm 1020g perch this summer with this kind of method, super fun
Which country r u fishing in?
Pukka fish great video
Cool stuff kiddo
Unlike most species you can catch specimen perch in a massive reservoir or a dew pond. As long as there's a steady supply of prey, the fish can be massive. Also, if you catch one big perch chances are there'll be more about.
👍👍👍
my biggest is 3lb 2oz top fight on light tackle.
👌
Man goes fishing in a stone island shirt, bruh
Wow first comment
Is it me or are big perch getting 'trendy???
Maybe they few n far between, don't forget pollution droughts pressure on our riverways etc etc, has put them in decline along with other fish.
Get your self a 1-5gr jig rod and fish ultra light for them put most fish to shame scrap wise
Those are huge perch , are they the same species of perch we have in the U.S , they look identical , but I've never caught or seen any that big .
if im not totally wrong you guys got yellow perch there and these are redfin perch.
The way he explains things makes me love fishing
Brilliant video of how fishing video’s should be no information on location, how to method and bait………old fashioned fishing of get on the bank and work it out for yourself.
Thanks 👍
No longer with NASH? Hope see more of your videos. I'm off to Spain Perch fishing in 5 weeks. I hope I catch some nice ones like you clearly are. You should also try some lure fishing too sometimes.
Awesome video Alfie, great fishing buddy💯👌
Quality fish and fishing. A big perch is the biggest of fish said the great Dick Walker. Nice to see you using a perch bobber, use them myself. Were you trotting livebaits or lobs? Gonna take some lobs on a trip to the Wye next week, aiming for barbel and chub but would love a quality Wye perch or roach.
Nice video mate 👍🏻
Keep up the good work .
I caught a 4.5 lb Perch at Berkhamstead on the Grand Union canal 🐟👍🏻
That's a great fish.
Lovely vid! Really captures that indescribable passion we have for them, anglers hey day! No mortgage, no kids, no ever hungry career that begs more and more time and energy, just big beutiful stripeys!!!
No women aswell maybe that all fucks things up!😂
You're lucky to have spots like this. Stunning fishes. Unfortunetly in Poland is almost impossible to catch some many perch in spots like U. Anyway congrats.
Great video. Never caught anything over 1 pound but they are so much fun to catch.
great film pity there wasnt just more angling
Great video
esp gonna do a clothing line with stone island huh?
Very talented young man! Judging by the bobber float, was that live bait? 🤔
I would say he probably is live baiting. Maybe the reason why he never shows much about what he’s doin.
What hookbait you using alf
👍🏼
Beautiful images and filming!
I have
Awesome short film Alfie, I'd like to see some of the carp fishing you have been up to aswell 😁
I'm sure many would! Probably 'under the radar' carping 😂
Excellent video. Those are so similar to the yellow perch in North America, but they get so much bigger.
Wow these Perch are something else, I must get on the Thames soon, ome very big Perch in this river, really enjoyed this, excellent talk, and saying it as it is,
wonderfull colours on these fish.
Very nice again Alfie, shows what an all round angler you are. Really hope there is more to come. Don't worry about the knockers, most anglers would love a sponsor so they could fish more. Great video and editing nothing like a big Perch mate.
WOW!!!!Fantastic record you have young man.I am off to the Chelmer/Blackwater Canal tomorrow morning armed with prawns to try and smash my personal best of about 1lb back in the early seventies!!!
I would deffo give you 4lb on that last fish pearch are awsome to catch
👍👍👍😜🏴🦄🎣😁✌️
Ps ofcourse iv subscribed lol
Wow, memories of Ashstead pond in the 60s. Never a four though !!!!!!!
Reminds me of growing up fishing the river Kennet back in them days in the late 60s we had loads of big perch if you knew where to look .
Cracking stripeys some dream fish there good for you enjoyed watching all the best 👍
Lovely vid mate .a true angler all your weights are true .you should come an fish south hanningfield res very large perch in there .all the best
They just don't get that big in USA. A 2 pounder is pretty big here. A 3# comes in only rarely.
This lad is like the Terry Hearns of Perch fishing ‼️💯🤘👏👏👏
Now those are beauties, proper Perch I need to catch one's like these. Has to be the rivers and canals.
Cracking video really enjoyed that, some monster perch there !
Big up Alfie!!!!! Kipper that!!!!
Well done Alfie cracking fish well worth all that effort
Id give you 4lb for that fish mate
Whats the main bait you use for perch
Great fun. Thank you for sharing.
Brilliant.A joy to watch.Thank you Alfie.
Man, those are some BIG perch
Awesome mate,
