If you ask previous Masters of the Fly guests like Jason Taylor or the late, great Bob Popovics where they source their bucktails, they’ll invariably point you to Brad Buzzi (BuzFlyProducts). Brad is widely known for his obsession with bucktail quality, how it’s sourced, dyed, selected, and, most of all, how it’s tied. A meticulous tier and material specialist, Brad has built a reputation for elevating bucktails to a precision tool for building durable, balanced, fish-catching flies.
In this session, Brad breaks down what separates average from exceptional bucktail, how to select and prepare it for different applications, and how tying techniques affect action, profile, and longevity.
