Tying the simple Reverse Bulkhead (Pike Fly)

[@flyfishing19gg91]

Hello, always great pattern and....so effective on the Dordogne river! Thanks 🙏🎣

[@toflyfish]

Paul, fantastic looking flies! I appreciate your generosity in sharing some awesome patterns and techniques. You are without question one of the best tyers on KZbin. Love your approach to fly design, and I can definitely relate to how often you like tying Bulkheads--they and Hollows are really addictive for me! Thanks again!

[@komando8365]

These are superb. In different color schemes... they're be lights out for east coast stripers here in the states.

[@josts6844]

So nice! Thanks for sharing ... it helps sooo much! Tight lines!

[@stryker2764]

I'm a first timer on your channel as well, and have subscribed as I found your teachings to be very good. You're one of the few that don't go 200km an hour when explaining the steps. Thank you and keep up what you're doing! :)

[@paul_monaghan]

Very kind...Don't look at my early vids then 😉

[@mattfleming86]

I admire your work! Beautifully tied. You make me anxious for musky this fall!

[@paul_monaghan]

I'm sure they'd work for musky. Good luck

[@buckfifty3470]

Like this one. Thinking this'll be first one out of the box come thaw here in north Iowa.

[@borsey]

Excellent pattern. Almost looks articulated. Would work fantastic in shallow, weedy shoreline waters. Thanks for the tutorial Paul!👍

[@danram69]

thanks for showing us

[@lllllsp1d3rlllll]

Man I would b lost if it wasn't for your videos

[@Easternfly]

Another great fly and video. I can't wait to try one. I'm looking forward to the other fly also.

[@loubrownguy69]

Love the flash and fuzzy fiber head! Thanks for the great videos!!!

[@RustyShacklefardd]

This looks like a killer bass pattern

[@Neonatas]

Superb tie Paul! Love the complex simplicity of the bulkheads !

[@venturarealestate9918]

Nice tie!

[@parky1305]

Great fly and instructions

[@hankvana2149]

Thanks Paul! I have Bob's book "Fleye Design" and have tied a number of his patterns so I can see how you have changed the way you control the flaring of the bucktail. Nice approach - will be adding your technique to my bag of (fly tying) tricks! Subbed and liked! ATB. Hank

[@StatesideFishing]

Nice fly 👍

[@ptitmut]

Hello and congratz for this remarquable tie ! I've been quite shocked by the length of that white bucktaik ! Which brand or model are you using ? I could benefit from those fibers that's for sure ! Thanks for your time, you are really inspiring for a beginner tyer like me

[@paul_monaghan]

Nothing special in these, just some 3/4" bucktails I picked up from Bigstreamers.com and NordicAnglers. Length isn't important for these. Some curl and air in the mid to base hair is better to create the BULKhead

[@mihadorosh8261]

Hello, tell the 8 rod class will be able to lift them?

[@paul_monaghan]

Should be ok, but a nine weight will be better

[@tocofishingadventures5712]

Hey bud, can i buy a few of your designs? i live in Guyana S.A Fly Fishing Fam, We fish A lot of Arowana and butterfly peacock bass here. alot of other species as well but mainly these.

[@julianwilliams4750]

Just come across your channel. Amazing stuff. Just wondered if you have had any experience with Dobb Daddy lures and if you would be up for tying a few a filming it. Cheers Julian

[@paul_monaghan]

I don't tend to tie flies up to used with lure rods. Have a look on Kanalgratis channel as sure Nik Bauer did a vid a few years ago about them

[@DallasLopez1]

Hey Paul, are you going to tie that beast variation of this? I tie them, but it's more fun to watch you do it. ;)

[@MuskyUtube96]

Hi Paul Love your work! For the head could you use a suitable marabou feather instead of the fuzzy fiber? Thanks Mike

[@bugbiteflytying]

Hey Paul, would the larger version be kind of like the Big Nyat but with a the bulk head design? Love your bulkheads!

[@paul_monaghan]

Both are hollow bucktails, just different at the head. This is more round which achieves more movement in the tail

[@bugbiteflytying]

@@paul_monaghan thanks Paul!

[@BalaguerV]

Nice!!! Would you say it works for trouts? Thank you!

[@paul_monaghan]

If tie smaller and perhaps hide a cone in them, i dont see why not
