In this latest mini masterclass, Matt Godfrey reveals his top tips and tricks as he heads to the renowned Stainforth and Keadby Canal, also known as “The Stainy,” in Doncaster. Famous for its abundance of fish, the Stainy is one of the best canals in the UK, but when it comes to match fishing here, targeting the larger fish species like bream and tench can make all the difference. Matt shares his expert insights on the rigs, bait, and tactics he uses to successfully draw in those bigger fish and gain the competitive edge. Whether you’re a seasoned angler or just looking to improve your canal fishing game, this video is packed with valuable advice!

Great video and some great tips – thanks Matt. Interesting to see the Stainforth & Keadby in fine form as it always seemed to fish rock hard for my visits on the NFA Nationals back in the 80s & 90s…
These are the video’s for me Matthew. Though i prefer a casting (match) rod, still lots of tips in the video. Yes… canal fishing is a waiting game, but so rewarded.
Grown up fishing the canal from Thorne to Crowle. Happy days! Great video to watch.
You get any chub out of the canal Matt thesedays? Used to get them but don't see them now.
Very good Matt nice net of fish 🐟 also packed with loads of info 👍hopefully more to come 😎
Brilliant Matt 👏👏👏👏
Mat, I know you method/hybrid fish much but could you do a intro/set up guide…many thanks
Quality stuff matty 👏
Get yourself to the long pond at Barnby dun its run by ddaa let's see how good you really are
Fab video and great fish 👍👍🎣🎣
Awesome stuff, thank you very much. Slide on brothers.😮
Great video. And amazing how it’s changed. Do you remember at the start of matches chucking across with a bomb and lobworm. Praying for a bonus chub. Or god forbid two. !? If you managed to snare a chub. You instantly thought I’m in here! 5 hours later. You’d been scratching for a few pounds. Still great matches though. 👍
Hi Mat, great video on what looks to be a great venue. How would you go about fishing it if you don't fish with a pole?
Proper fishing ..by a Proper fisherman on a Proper venue..forget your carp puddles..too easy
Quality upload that boy n girls👍amazing the pulling power of pellets on the cut.
Brilliant! Slide on brother

No8 elastic now is that through your full top kit or just one section and have u got a pulla kit or traditional bung??
Lovely real angling nails 🙂 Ruber gloves trend is unacceptable 🤮 in competition world….mognificent video👌
Lovely stuff! Really enjoyed that 👍
You can't beat canal tench. I do hate the phrase "Probably never been caught before" though unless it's a tiny fish or it's your own private water! 😉
Times have changed ,,,I remember in the 70s someone was using a 9 met pole in a match and was disqualified ,,😮
Great video,can’t beat a day on the cut
