Matthew Schmidt

Matthew comes to Bay Flats Lodge from Inez, TX, where he and his fiancé, Cassidy, call home for them and their two canine babies – Gus and Sadie. Matthew is a Texan through and through – he’s been hunting and fishing ever since he was a small child. In years past, Matthew has worked in sales, customer service, and leadership positions in the food service and supply chain industry, and is experienced with industrial and commercial restaurant equipment. He’s even a certified NCCER welder, as well. Matthew’s passion for food allows him to flourish, expanding his restaurant skills as he cooks for our Bay Flats Lodge guests. On your next visit to the lodge, look for Matthew’s smiling face and welcoming demeanor downstairs in the outdoor kitchen for appetizers, and then again upstairs in the dining hall.
