Field Notes

Fly-tying beads are used to add weight and a finished head to nymphs, streamers, and other fly patterns. They help flies sink faster and can improve the profile of the finished fly when fishing subsurface presentations.

Pros

  • Adds weight for faster sink rate on flies
  • Useful for tying a wide range of bead-head patterns
  • Simple fly-tying component

Cons

  • Only useful for fly tying, not as a finished fishing lure
  • Size and material must match the hook and pattern
