Matty is a well-known name in the world of swimbait fishing, especially if you watched the Elite event at Lake Fork recently. He joins our show to talk about growing up in Hawaii and how it shaped him as a fisherman. We chat about his journey from the laid-back islands to the bustling city of LA.

We hear Matty’s story about getting into fishing competitions and discovering swimbaits. He brings us into his mind for the event, and helps us learn why he chose his fihsing methods and locations. Something you don’t get to hear or see often from the elite guys, especially at the depth we went. We dicussed what it was like to be on national tv and how much it meant to him having such a good few days with a camera guy.
