Matthew Stefan was born and raised in Chicago and currently resides in Junction City, WI. He is a full-time touring bass angler and licensed Wisconsin fishing guide. Matt attributes his fishing abilities to his parents and grandparents who started him fishing with a Johnson Silver Minnow and an Uncle Josh Pork Frog on family vacations to northern Wisconsin. Stefan’s number one fan and supporter is his wife Sara. Stefan’s favorite techniques include jerkbaits and topwaters and he prefers to fish cold, clear water. His home lake is the Stevens Point Flowage in central Wisconsin and his favorite lake is the Chippewa Flowage in Hayward, WI. When Matt is not on the water, he enjoys making his own tackle and following the stock market.
