a guide and a teacher

the only thing he can’t do is set the hook for you

  • Has a truly enormous amount of tackle and rods all available to guided clients

  • Can instruct on every aspect of the bass fishing process

  • Bring anything you want to try, but leave the bananas at home

Matt has guided countless clients to their personal best bass. In one week alone, Matt guided 4 anglers in a row to a bass over 11 lbs! When anglers join Matt on the water they come to experience world class fishing, but they’re also there to learn.

Matt is a natural teacher and tailors each trip to the needs of the client. Some anglers choose to focus on catching a trophy bass, while others want to learn a technique they’ve seen in a Tactical Bassin video. Whatever the angler’s goals, Matt will make it happen.

Matt’s guide service began on the famed waters of Northern California and created an incredible following. Anglers from around the globe waited years for their opportunity to fish Clearlake, Berryessa, or the California Delta. In recent years Matt relocated to Tennessee, opening doors for anglers to fish a variety of famed fisheries with him. Today he travels extensively filming and generating content for social platforms but continues to offer anglers the opportunity to fish a variety of new lakes amongst his travels.

“I caught the biggest fish of my life… an hour later I again caught the biggest fish of my life. There is no one friendlier nor more capable than Matt Allen.”

Caleb Johnson, Redding, CA

“I have been flying out from Toronto, Canada for the past 4 years. Why? Because Matt Allen is the BEST big bass fisherman in North America. He’s ready for any situation, and is always on the bass. Teaching and patience are what makes him a cut above the rest.”

Jeff Uhler, Toronto, Canada

“Thanks for such a great trip on the delta! My son spent the rest of our vacation telling the story of his big bass. We’ll see you next spring!”

Jim Breeman, New York, New York
