In this episode, we sit down with Lino Jubilado, an angler whose story flows from the streets of East Los Angeles to the currents of the LA River. Lino reflects on how fishing first took root in his childhood, grew through competitive bass tournaments, and eventually led him to the world of fly fishing, casting for carp in the heart of the city. Along the way, he shares what it means to find peace, belonging, and community in an urban landscape, while breaking barriers and inspiring others to connect with the water right where they are.
On The Real is all about making the invisible visible. This podcast, hosted by Ubuntu Fly Anglers, is a space where we get real with Black and Brown anglers, guides, outfitters, and outdoor enthusiasts about what matters most to them. Through candid conversations, On The Real explores the joys, challenges, and truths of living the outdoor life—from fly fishing and guiding to building businesses, mentoring others, and finding belonging in nature. It’s about sharing wisdom, celebrating identity, and holding space for the real stories that often go unheard.
