Fishing, Filming and Conservation in Montana
Manage episode 429908377 series 2079905
This episode was recorded on a drift boat while floating down the Clark Fork River near Missoula, Montana. Matt Devlin was born and raised on the banks of the Chesapeake Bay, but has lived “Out West” so long now, that autocorrect had to step in for the assist in the spelling of the aforementioned estuary.
He has made his living off of the water for over half his life and for the past 10+ years has been involved with photography and video production. Transitioning out of a life as a full time fly fishing guide he is focusing on running the Montana Fishing Film Festival and his small studio PMD Productions. He has done work for NRS, SIMMS, Costa del Mar Sunglasses, G Loomis Rod Co., Trout Unlimited, The Montana Wildlife Federation, Casting for Recovery, Cheeky Fishing, CD rods, True Lacrosse, and Patagonia.
He believes that all outdoor sports documentaries, at their best, are human interest stories. And that while camera and post production tricks come and go, good storytelling is timeless. He won a 2018 Drake Magazine film award for "best story" for his work on the film LANDSICK and was nominated in 2020 for "best story" for his film "Denny's Fly Box"
He worked on and near the rivers of Missoula as a fishing guide for 11 seasons. Also earning a USCG captain's license in Key West FL during that time. Ultimately choosing to throw himself at creative pursuits full time. Started the Montana Fishing Film Festival simply to show a film a buddy had made about fishing in Montana and the rest is history.
