Fly Tying: Beginner Predator Flies - Part 2: BULKHead Deceiver
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 5 ต.ค. 2024
- This is an short video series aimed at showcasing the most basic predator fly patterns - the Bucktail Deceiver and BULKHead Deceiver - and how to adapt them to best fit your conditions and forage species. These two flies can be tied with bare minimum materials, are extremely durable, and are flat out some of the most successful predator flies ever designed. I had the pleasure of filming this series down in Brazil this past Oct. and put these flies through the ringer with great success fooling many large Peacock Bass. Weather your targeting trophy Amazon Peacocks, Northwoods Smallmouth and Musky, or East Coast Stripers - these are the flies that will get you started and follow you for a lifetime of success on the water.
Materials:
Hook: Gami SL12S 4/0
2 sizes of Bucktail

I just keep coming back to this video series. There are some really good videos online showing how to tie bucktail deceivers and bulkheads, but your "Beginner Predator Flies" mini series is the best I've seen. Straight to the point, very good explanations, very good tying. Awesome job - thanks for sharing!
You sir are an amazing tyer.....thread control is where in lacking....and not using enuf material....thank u for focusing on the fine details to help us learn
Love the instructions, I’m now stoked to start tying my own fly’s!
What Rudy V said! Camera angle, lighting, explanation is very good!!!!
One of my favorite flies for tarpon with black bucktail, st croix mojo bass rod and a 9# floating line. Thanks
Very nice Gunnar! The KISS principal at its best! The Popovics influence really shows :-) Agreed - a lot can be done with this platform and still keep it simple. Great as you tied them long for pike and bass. For walleye I tie them shorter on a light wire hook using more of the coarser hair at the base of the bucktail so that they are more buoyant. Olive, brown or yellow fished with a sinking line for lake walleyes works well for me. Cheers! Hank
Another great tie, thanks for posting it and explaining it all so well. Your tips and tricks have helped improve my flies a lot!
*Excellent selection especially for the newer angler. **enjoyable.fishing** recommend it’s entire assortment looks to be tied well. Looking forward to getting them wet...*
Yes Gunnar, that thing looks killer! Like the suggestion to mix up some color for a muskie/pike fly using this recipe. Definitely a pattern that will find a place in my fly box. Thanks.
i really love bucktail to tie streamer.... this is awesome... thanks for the tips... will give a try for snakehead.....
This is a great mullet silhouette!
Hope Bob sees this. Well done
Great intro man, and good explanation on deer hair size/type variations. Respect. 🎣
Superb, 100% my kind of fly Gunnar
You make it look so easy! Great looking fly!!
Dear Gunnar: Hope all is well, I see your videos from Iran, Thank you so much for your time about making a video for all the world.
Sincerely Reza,
Cheers Ali! I appreciate the kind words man!
Awesome channel man. Also digging Silence the assembly as the intro.
Killer tutorial Gunnar (as always!). you mention fishing this with a "conehead on the leader". can you provide a little more detail on what you're doing? Thanks!!!
I tried this last night. Man, you make it look EASY. I think mine would have turned out better if I had a larger hook though. Umpqua U502 size 2 was not the way for me lol.
As usual another great fly...🎣🎣
Thanks for sharing your knowledge. Do you ever put eyes on these flys or do you feel that there is no need? Thank you
Nice add on.... push that water
Great!!!
Excellent fly man!!! Thanks for posting.
top notch!!
When I tie these, I can never get the rear facing parts to lay so flat and long...my bucktail is always flayed out wide. Any recommendations? I try to wrap it down a bit and I try using less pressure...that usually ends in wonky looking flies or hair slipping our or rotating on the hook.
I didn’t see what size hook you used. I know probably personal preference but just curious.
Gunner can you made a articulate pike fly with this techniques? Best regards from Holland
That is a monster killer. No predators are going to be able to resist that tie. You like to use sinking lines or floating line and sinking leader?
Awesome !👍
I am 76 years old and I still tie flies and. I still love tying flies , try it ,
Hello, I am always impressed by your tying. Where do you get your bucktail?
Awesome battle scarred fingers ;o) So do you cull through a boat load of bucktails or do you
have a provider that knows what you want? Thanks!
I tied this fly however my bucktail does not fold back in a nice cone like that when tied hollow fly style. It splays up and out, and the fly looks like a mop. You mention a different type of bucktail, can you elaborate on that??
What type off line would you use for these, floating, intermediate or sinking? I wanna try this and the high tie for wade fishing in saltwater
Top...
Song at the intro anyone? Would enjoy hearing again.
Hi Gunner Brammer, I have enjoyed watching you tie the bulkhead predator on TH-cam. I am looking for that long 5 to 6 inch white buck hair, can you tell me which store you purchased your buck tail from? I have not been able to find that long buck hair. Could you Give me the name of the store and website where I may find the same long buck tail? Thanks.

Heavy music and fly fishing. My kind of video
Very bulky, indeed. Could be done lighter for the amazonians tucunares (i.e. peacock basses). I find your streamers too heavy. I sugest you'll watch some vídeos of brazilian tyiers like, Kawamoto's streamers for the big amazonians tucunares (i.e. peacock basses). Watch that one, he is tying a REMULOS FLY !!!!Although very big and bulky, less dense and lighter.
.
Can use this for gt?
Tucunaré!!!
music is way too loud
Your work is fine, but I am asking myself and asking you a question; all these filaments of more or less plastic material will end up in the water and/or in the bellies of fish. You and I and millions of Internet users would surely like to be able to enjoy many more years of the benefits of this planet. Isn't a reflection on the choice of ecological materials necessary? for reading, thank you.
This pattern used Hair from a Deer....
@@Gunnar_BrammerI bet one time in history a musky had taken a bite of a small fawn swimming in the water, that'd be something to see!
Gunnar, you've taught me more about fly design than anyone. Much thanks. Your music choice sucks
@gunnerbrammer Where do you get your large bucktails? Most of the bucktails I receive have mostly short hair, and never seem long enough for the tail to have any length.
