Shakespeare TV goes to the River Calder at Mirfield and shows tips relating to river match fishing. Methods employed are light waggler, light stick and straight lead.

I used to throw stones into the Calder in the 70s and the splash back was multi coloured ! ...it seems amazing now 40 year's later ! it's full of fish and wildlife.

Hi Tom, I would go for the 13 or 15ft Superteam match. For most my waggler fishing on smaller rivers like the Avon I like a 13ft rod. In deeper pegs a longer 15ft rod can help, also when fishing a stick float / bolo as it helps float control further out.
