Bob Popovics Bucktail Deceiver
Tied By: John McCall
Recipe for Bob Popovic's Bucktail Deciever
Hook: Long shank 2/0 salt water hook
Thread: 3/0 white or mono
Tail: Clump of bucktail tied to surround hook shank
Body: Clumps of progressively shorter bucktail tied to surround shank
This is a fly developed by Bob Popovics in the 90's which substitutes bucktail for hackle in the traditional deceiver. Tied on a large hook it is a very good bunker imitation. You can also tie it smaller for a good anchovy fly
