Winsnes Fly Fishing Lodge, the Norwegian lodge Owned by Matt and his wife, is pleased to announce that it has just signed a contract for one of the best pieces of salmon fishing water on the Gaula. Known as Flaskholen, the beat is over a mile long and Winsnes has both banks. Fishing will be limited to just six anglers a week and will be fly only, available only to guests at the lodge.
The area is one of the best on Gaula and arguably offers the most exclusive fly fishing experience.

webmaster — Thu, 08 Dec 2011 23:32:59 +0000

With Christmas just round the corner, lots of you have been e-mailing to enquire about guided trips in 2012. Matt has decided to do very few in the coming year but he has committed to doing a Matt Hayes academy at Furnace Mill fishery. There are three days, two have sold out and another has just been added. Places cost £200.00
If you want one to one stuff, Matt is doing some pike on the fly and trout fly fishing days in the spring and some barbel days in the autumn.
You can enquire by going to the ‘contact us’ section of the site. Please note that one to one days with Matt cost £800.00
Please note that Matt is currently receiving round fifty requests a week to take or join people on free fishing trips. He cannot and does not do it. Matt uses this time to support Starlight children’s charity or Dreamstore. Please do not use the contact us section to send Matt fishing questions – he receives so many that he does not answer them.

Matt has Nothing to do with TF Gear

webmaster — Tue, 22 Nov 2011 12:43:48 +0000

To make things very clear, Matt has nothing to do with TF Gear. Many shops and Internet sellers still refer to Matt Hayes TF Gear and there is still kit being sold that bears his name under the TF Gear brand. Matt would like all of his followers to know that he does not endorse TF Gear and derives no benefit, financial or otherwise for the kit that is being sold bearing his name and the TF Gear label. Matt will shortly announce plans to launch some exciting new products, including a clothing range that is official Matt Hayes product.
