The Articulate Fly

S6, Ep 27: On the Salt with GotOne


Listen Later

Join host Marvin Cash as he welcomes Captain David Blinken to another salty episode of The Articulate Fly. As the countdown to spring begins, David shares his anticipation for guiding clients on his skiff and reflects on the joys of late-season skiing. With daylight savings just around the corner, they discuss the perks of longer days and the transition from snowy slopes to coastal tides.

As the conversation flows, David delves into the essentials of a beginner's fly box for Northeast saltwater fishing. He advocates for simplicity, suggesting a small selection of versatile flies—bucktails, clousers, deceivers and perhaps a popper—will serve novice anglers well without overwhelming them with choices. David emphasizes the importance of presentation over variety and assures listeners that, with the right approach, the fish will bite.

Addressing a listener's question, David recommends bluefish as an ideal beginner species, offering tips on tackle and techniques to handle their notorious bite. He also touches on other accessible species for those fishing the southern coasts.

As the show draws to a close, Marvin reminds listeners of the exciting giveaways—a Rise Fishing Company rod and a Norvise—and thanks Norvise for their generous sponsorship. David shares updates on the final episode of "Masters of the Fly" and the innovative fishing app GotOne, hinting at upcoming developments.

Whether you're itching to hit the water or still bundling up for winter, this episode is packed with insights to prepare you for the upcoming fishing season. So, tune in, get your questions ready and, as always, tight lines!
