Matrix Masterclass - Mark Pollard - River Waggler Fishing

Traditional wagger fishing may be somewhat of a forgotten art but it's certainly a tactic that can catch a lot of fish. We joined Mark Pollard for a session on the river where he set about explaining how to catch more fish on the waggler.

With clips and films ranging from, The Matrix Submerged with Rob Hughes, The Matrix Mission where we challenge our top consultants and the Matrix Mini Masterclass with Jamie Hughes, Mark Pollard Jon Arthur, Jamie Harrison and the rest of the Matrix team. We also bring you the very latest product videos so you can find out more about our new releases. At Matrix we pride ourselves on manufacturing quality fishing tackle for Match anglers, club anglers and pleasure anglers who simply enjoy coarse fishing. Our product and tips videos will give you an insight into how to pick the right rod, pole or reel. Which is the best fishing box for your style of fishing.

The master at work!

Lovely lovely fishing, wish there were more videos and anglers out on natural water fishing, it’s not easy fishing till you get the basics right then it’s a dream. The fish see more boats than anglers, is something I had remind team members that would let boats put them off. On canals and rivers. New rod looked very responsive 👍
Thank you mark and Team Matrix💪

If anything boats have helped me catch more, I think when a large boat passes (I fish trent mostly) it flicks the hookbait around, it always seems on maggot feeder at least, you get a bite right after the wake passes your hookbait. Bit of a nightmare with kayaks that are in close though, which is common on the trent, lots of rowing clubs... but if you travel out of the city a bit (nottingham) you end up with just large boats, which dont bother the fish one bit.

Brilliant video Matrix and a lovely net of redfins from Mark 👍

Another good video with excellent shots of the float , better than other videos I’ve seen recently of 2hrs looking at the back of the angler sitting on his tackle box!

[@cliveclive54]

Good to see ya still bagging mate,no right or wrongs in fishing! Whatever works for ya! Cheers,Clive \m/

[@barrymorehen2390]

Nice to see mark on my local stretch just a shame I never got to see the masterclass in person

[@leerose9436]

Great Video Guys ! I’m cack handed too ! I’m Right Handed and can only wind a reel with the handle on the right ! Managed for over 50 years now 😂👍🙏🏻

[@The1vanillaman]

class act Mark , you can't beat the stick or the wag,sadly the rivers are not what they used to be, 40 years ago the avon and the severn were amazing venues full of chub,dace roach and barbel,those wonderful days.

[@hawkeye1939]

I've have more spot on tips that I'll implement from this man than I have nearly any other from the day I started fishing

[@markdavies8037]

Lol. Now i know why image made rods with short cork handles!

[@mikestevens8142]

Another great vid! Where can we get hold of them slim wagglers?

[@marktully2718]

Beach casting exactly the same, Rod left hand right hand wind. Brill video.

[@iang953]

Polly what a class act but his awkward style plays havoc with my OCD

[@karlruditis5615]

The Ronnie O’Sullivan of the fishing world 🙌👍

[@AirwolfBMG]

Question if I may. Would you use the 16 diameter for stick float? As it’s advertised as sinking like a brick. Looking for a new stick float line, that won’t brake the bank💪👍

[@easyfishing1936]

Hi Mark and Matrix, well i have watched Mark fishing and yes, i thought he was cack handed but if i was half as good as Mark i wouldn't care! Now while i'm local to Mark i havn't fished that bit of the Gt Ouse and it did look a lovely stretch of the river. I did wonder at the shotting pattern because it looked like a strung out pattern more suited to the stick. But it did work well on the day and is this your way on the waggler Mark or did you put more shot down to avoid the bleak? Some beautiful close ups of the float in action, something difficult to achieve to do fishing and fiming solo. Loved the video. Kindest regards Bill

[@ishy2step]

Mark, appreciate you can't answer every posts, but I'd love to know who if anyone organises opens on this stretch? Great vid, thanks.
For everyone else, if you like this vid of Polly catching silvers - check out his one on fishing in Holland - belting roach!!

[@charliebear1436]

Nice video. Guessing the audio director's a Chinatown fan.

[@connorscoarsefishingjourne7680]

Isn’t polly just a true legend like bob nudd etc

[@bertharens7943]

Ik zie rode maden in je bakje, mag dat wel?

[@tonymariner5519]

Why the waggle and not a stick float?

[@stevepowley6471]

Re the cack handed approach.... Could it be the fact that reels like the Mitchells didn't have interchangeable handles and that left handed reels were as rare as rocking horse poo in the 70's??

[@topfuelteddy]

I think you've hit the nail on the head , my old man and lots of others did it back in the day .

[@the72inc73]

Left hand right hand - mind can't compute

[@steveball458]

Mark your a left handed why reel in right handed looks so awkward
