Field Notes

Use these slotted tungsten beads on jig/euro-style nymph and perdigon-style flies to add weight and keep the fly point-up for consistent presentation. Choose bead size to match the target hook size and desired sink rate, then thread the bead onto the hook shank before tying in the rest of the fly.

Pros

  • Precision slotted for jig/euro hook fitment without wobble
  • Tungsten provides consistent weight and sink behavior
  • Clean drilling helps prevent thread fraying and material hang-ups
  • Speckled matte finish adds contrast and lifelike appearance

  • Requires fly-tying/rigging setup (beads are not a finished fly)
