Why Fish Moxie
A successful trip isn't measured only by the number of fish in the boat. It's measured by the smiles, the laughs, the new skills you take home, and the memories you'll be talking about long after the day is over. Whether you're introducing a child to fishing or chasing your personal best walleye, I'll tailor the trip to you.

Captain Matt Tallman
Helping families and anglers create memories on the water is the best part of what I do.
​
I've spent more than 30 years learning the lakes around Traverse City and Northern Michigan, chasing walleyes and helping anglers of every skill level become more successful.
​
Whether it's your child's first fish, your personal best, or simply a relaxing day on the water, every trip is customized to your goals.

My mission is simple:
Fish More. Learn More. Enjoy More.
