Salutations! As a Guide, I understand the difficulties you might encounter as you set out to learn to fly fish. We have all been there at one point in life...The beginning. I'm here to help you break down the complexities, to help you develop the techniques that may initially seem elusive, and to guide you through the frustrations that are natural when learning something new, like fly fishing. My name is Matt Tempesta, a dedicated Husband, Father, Veteran and Entrepreneur who has organically fallen into this amazing world of Fly Fishing professionally. The passion which stems from both my time in service and my reverence for nature, I've found solace and purpose in guiding others through the art of fly fishing.

My background as an Instructor/Infantrymen in the Military has equipped me with invaluable skills in leadership, communication, and the art of teaching. Now I channel these abilities to provide aspiring anglers with not just the technical aspects of fly fishing, but also an immersive and transformative experience. My aim is to create an environment where veterans and beginners alike can find tranquility, camaraderie, and a sense of achievement on the water.

I am excited to share my knowledge with others. Whether you're a seasoned angler looking to refine your skills or a complete novice eager to embark on a new adventure, I am here to guide you every step of the way. My Walk and Wade trips are not just about catching fish; they're about building connections, gaining confidence, and discovering the therapeutic power of nature.
