Matt Austin

Fly Fisher/Fly Tier/Guide

As all great fly fisherman of a certain age, Matthew Austin first got stoked on fly fishing from the era of dreamy Brad Pitt filled silver screen time in a "River Runs Throught It."

He first started fishing on bass ponds in his native Kansas City and chasing small trout in fisheries like Bennett Springs and later the White River. His real fishing life started in college when he visited and then relocated to Florida after catching his first bonefish. After a move to San Diego to complete his Master of Architecture degree he discovered the only way to keep his flats skills well honed away from his beloved Keys was fishing for "wakeing" carp on the lakes of Southern California.
