Bucktails

Saltwater bucktails are the quintessential lure for catching predatory fish, particularly in the flats and shallows. The profile and movement of the hair gives them the ability to mimic numerous scaled baitfish such as minnows, sardines, shiners and mullet. As a result, this seemingly simple lure remains one of the most productive on the market. We have inshore and offshore saltwater bucktail lures in stock from SPRO, Andrus Lures, Magictails, S&S, and more to attract fish to your line anywhere in the world. (And with worldwide shipping, TackleDirect can get them to you anywhere.)

In addition to the classic white bucktail, you can also find other colors such as neon green bucktails that will attract striper and cod, or pink teaser bucktails that imitate shrimp. Attach a saltwater bucktail to a jig rod and reel and put your luring skills to work, or fast reel your bucktail for a presentation that no mackerel or barracuda can resist. Bucktails are also available in sizes from 80 grams to 8 oz, depending on water depth, current and which gamefish you're targeting. If you're not sure what's best for you, our experts will be glad to help you make the most out of a lure that has stood the test of time.
