Listen Later

Join host Marvin Cash on The Articulate Fly for another exciting "On the Salt" segment with Captain David Blinken. In this episode, David shares his recent adventures, including a trip to Martha's Vineyard where he enjoyed some quality time with family and friends and managed to catch some elusive striped bass on the flats. David discusses the challenges of fly fishing in saltwater, especially with the low numbers of striped bass in Long Island, and shares his experiences of catching large bluefish using small poppers and gurglers.

David also provides valuable tips on handling and releasing fish to ensure their health, emphasizing the importance of using barbless hooks, heavy lines and proper release techniques. He even touches on the occasional encounters with gray seals that sometimes steal the catch! Additionally, David answers a listener's question about maintaining fish health during hot weather, offering practical advice that every angler can use.

Whether you're a seasoned saltwater angler or just love fishing stories, this episode is packed with insights, tips and a bit of humor. Tight lines!
