Episode 24—Matt Smythe

The Fly Tapes

In this episode, I sit down with poet Matt Smythe.

From the American Fly Fishing Trade Association:

"A freelance writer since 2011, Matt has worked in advertising since 2004 holding positions from business development to creative direction on brands like General Motors, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Thomas & Thomas, and ScentBlocker. He’s also a filmmaker and published writer with stories and poetry appearing in Fly Fish Journal, The Drake, Midcurrent, Boating Magazine, Southern Culture on the Fly, Post Magazine, and others.

An Army veteran and native of the Finger Lakes region in Western New York where he lives with his wife and three kids, Matt is an avid outdoorsman who grew up fishing, bowhunting, and camping, learning how to fly fish during grad school."

Thanks to Sage Fly Fishing for their support.
