S6, Ep 123: On the Salt with David Blinken: Striper Strategies and Fly Tactics

In this episode of The Articulate Fly, host Marvin Cash catches up with Captain David Blinken for an update on the Northeast fishing scene. As the weather cools down, David shares insights on the arrival of striped bass, while the elusive false albacore remain scarce around Eastern Long Island. Despite their absence, David offers promising reports of stripers in Rhode Island and Fisher's Island, with Montauk and the inner bays seeing an uptick as the season heads into November.

David dives into a listener's question about fly color preferences when fishing for stripers on the flats. He emphasizes the importance of matching fly colors to the environment, explaining how baitfish and crabs adapt their colors to blend in with their surroundings. David shares his technique of adjusting fly patterns to match the bottom, offering tips on when to add or remove flash based on fish behavior and conditions.

Marvin encourages listeners to submit their questions for a chance to win some Articulate Fly swag and enter a drawing for a Royal Wulff fly line. David also hints at exciting plans for the 2025 season of Masters of the Fly, promising updates as details are finalized. For those eager to book a last-minute trip with David, he invites them to reach out via his website or email.

As always, Marvin reminds everyone to get out there and enjoy the water. Tight lines, everyone!
