Wonderful. Great instructor!

Knowledgeable as well as his expertise in fly- fishing. Very patient and great personality. I highly recommend him as an instructor and his knowledge of the best fishing areas in south western VA

Matt was fantastic. He spent the day with my 9 yo and me. It was our first time fly fishing and we caught many fish and spent the whole day out. He was thoughtful with his instructions and got us casting on our own and informed about the flies and the water column and so much more. Can’t wait to go again.

Very knowledgeable and dedicated guide. He genuinely cares about delivering a great experience.

Spent a full day floating and fishing with Matt on the Jackson River. Matt is an exceptional guide with tons of experience and knows the river like the back of his hand. Already looking forward to my next visit to the area so I can fish with Matt again!

I had a fantastic time floating the Jackson in Virginia with Matt. Matt knows the river well, where fish should be holding and works hard to dial in the fly selection and rigging for success with the fish. Five stars!

Matt is an excellent guide! This was my second time fishing with him and my first time fly fishing on a float. It was the perfect combination of fun, relaxation and enjoyment of nature. I learned so much, developed my skills, and simply loved the paradise that is the lower Jackson and all the wildlife and plants that inhabit it. Thank you Matt! I can't wait to get back out there.

Matt was punctual and very helpful. Just as importantly, a wealth of knowledge and put me on some fantastic fish! I will book with him again, if he will have me!!

Matt is a terrific guide! Courteous, very knowledgeable, knows flies, knots, casting techniques and where the fish are. If you want a great professional guide who is an excellent teacher and fun to fish with, Matt is your man.

I have had the pleasure of fishing with Matt over 20 times in the past 5 years. Matt introduced me to a variety of water and consistently demonstrates what a great fishery exists in the extended Hot Springs area. I have fished throughout the United States and beyond and I can unequivocally say that a day with Matt is always a great time and always includes BIG fish!
