S6, Ep 12: On the Salt with GotOne

Sail into the salty breeze with Marvin Cash and Captain David Blinken in this episode of The Articulate Fly. As Marvin wraps up his whirlwind show tour, the duo reminisces about their recent meeting at the Edison Fly Fishing Show in New Jersey.

They tackle Brenner's question about the ideal rod and reel setups for inshore fishing, revealing that while an eight-weight with a floating line is a classic choice, the complexity of the sport demands a versatile quiver. Whether it's tarpon or permit, bonefish or striped bass, David gives an in-depth look at his preferred gear and the nuanced choices that can make or break a day on the water.

Listeners are invited to contribute their own questions for a chance to win a Rise Fishing Company rod or the grand prize—a Norvise. Plus, don't miss out on the upcoming Masters of the Fly events featuring fly fishing innovators like Captain Joe Blados and Tim O'Neill.

As the season shifts, Marvin encourages everyone to engage with the fly fishing community, whether it's tying flies, attending shows or braving the elements for a catch. With spring peeking around the corner, it's time to gear up, get out and embrace the endless opportunities that fly fishing has to offer. Tight lines!

Guide

David Blinken owner and guide has taken the time to observe the environment in which he guides, and he sees things that others might not, this ability is what separates him from the pack. His clients benefit from this, which allows David to provide them with an experience that they can take home and remember until their next trip.

North flats began as an idea in David’s discussions with friends, “why get trapped in an office” they used to tell him, you need to explore and make your passion your business.

Davids’s passion and desire are what allows him to give people a lasting and fun experience that not only connects them with fish but to the environment in which they live. This not only gives his clients a better understanding of where to find the fish but also a better appreciation of their environment and how to preserve the very thing they love, flyfishing

There is not just great fishing to experience but a passion that brings people together, which is why people keep coming back year after year.
