Matty Valdez is a Colorado native that grew up with one foot in the river. For him fly fishing originally started as a family event, but like every other passion in life it grew and developed into a life-long love of the sport, the outdoors, and conservation. He now finds his joy in teaching others about the beauty of fly fishing, the respect of the trout fished, and the love of his native state. The focus for Matty is the total outdoor experience and sharing his passion of fly fishing with others.
