I’ve been out hunting/fishing with Nor’Eastern three times now. I highly recommend Matt as a person and a guide. He knows his stuff and is well worth it. Put me on a nice turkey within a few hours and is very dependable. As a person he’s one of the nicest guys I’ve met. The care he puts into your hunt is excellent and he treats you like you’re one of his closest friends. If you want someone to show you the ropes up here in the North country don’t hesitate to book him.
