The Cotton Candy Bulkhead Predator Fly That Breathes Like Crazy!

Want a longer, more lifelike bucktail fly without hunting down premium bucktail or tying mono extensions? In this video, I tie my take on a Bob Popovics-inspired bulkhead technique to create the Cotton Candy Bulkhead, a fly packed with movement, profile, and fish-catching potential. By combining bucktail, Flashwing and palmered ostrich, you can build extra length and incredible action while keeping the fly lightweight and easy to cast. I fish this pattern all year round for pike, but I'd love to hear what species you'd target with it!
