Matt has put me into countless numbers of salmon and steelhead in the few years that I've been fortunate enough to fish with him, and has made me a better angler. He has mastered just about every technique and tactic you can think of, and can put you into excellent fishing year round. He flat-out catches fish, and will work hard to ensure that you get every penny worth of your time. If you want to lessen the learning curve of becoming a better salmon and steelhead angler, while having a LOT of fun and laughs, I highly recommend booking with him.

We had a great day fishing with Matt. My wife and I fish a lot on our own and with guides. What separates Matt from other guides is, he is very helpful with techniques, shows great respect for the fishery, and a top notch person with great values. We strongly recommend Matt when you look for your next fishing outing. Thanks Matt!! Chris and I will be back to join you again.

I put in many days and a few thousand casts trying to catch a steelhead and Matt finally made it happen! We landed 9 of 10 steelhead in a day and two of them were wild trophy bucks (36” and 40”). It was such an epic day! Matt is an absolute pro and is the nicest guy ever.
