Advertise with The Articulate Fly
The Articulate Fly cultivates and serves a community of engaged fly anglers who dig a little deeper, enjoy the story behind the story and want a more complete experience on the water. Our approach to community is 100% organic. We don't buy listeners or followers on social media. We don't hack our listeners' attention. We respect them too much. When we offer promotions, we don't test whether you undertand what "free" means. We are pretty sure you do. We want to reward listeners who meaningfully engage with our community, not folks who just want to swoop in for the goodies. This approach isn't for everyone, but, if it works for you, let's grow together.

“I’ve gotten to know Marvin over the past couple of years. He brings a fresh insight to the sport of fly fishing with his understanding and knowledge of its deep history - “a true student of the game”. Two things that strike me about Marvin are his nonstop work ethic and his thoughtfulness towards others. Both of these shine through in his podcast, The Articulate Fly. You can guarantee each time you tune in to hear the latest episode Marvin will have done his homework giving his listeners a deeper insight into the guest’s story.”
Blane Chocklett, Guide, Author and Fly Designer
“In angling, the details can make or break any fishing adventure. The same could be said in journalism and telling someone’s story. Marvin Cash has paved the way for anglers to tell their story in his Articulate Fly podcast. In addition to working with Marvin, I am a big fan of his work. I recommend all anglers give it a listen!”

Norvise has been advertising with Marvin and The Articulate Fly for several years now. Marvin is very easy to work with, and we always know he is working hard to get us the most exposure for our investment. Above that, Marvin is a friend, and I have complete and total confidence anytime we are working together we will reach our goal. Our results have been nothing but positive, and we will continue to work with Marvin for years to come.”
