About "Muskie Matt"
I started fishing and guiding in the Sawyer/Price county area, the Turtle-Flambeau Flowage, North Fork Flambeau River and numerous other area lakes. I now include the Vilas/Oneida county area for the last 15 years and base out of the Eagle River area. The only difference between a good day of fishing and a great day of fishing is one cast.
I specialize in teaching the technique of baitcasting and icefishing.
