We had an amazing trip with Matt and Dan! Seriously incredible! We caught tons of big fish, including my wife who got her first ever trout on a fly- She brought in an 18 inch bow! I’d give it ten stars if I could. Whether you are advanced or brand new, Matt Heron knows how to give you an incredible experience.

I am a family adventure documentary photographer and I worked with Matt Heron a few weeks ago. I have a background in outdoor guiding as well as fly fishing. Matt is the real deal. Yes, he's a great fisherman. But more importantly he provides an incredible experience from start to finish. He and Chris (the other guide with us) showed a professionalism and kindness towards the customer that is rare. I would choose Matt Heron Fly Fishing every day of the week.
