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!
