Best matches

For soft plastic rigging on salmon and steelhead egg-style presentations, start with these:

• Hawken Fishing AERO-BEAD #5 - COSMIC PINK
• Hawken Fishing AERO-BEAD #6 - PEACH
• Hawken Fishing AERO-BEAD #7 - PRAWN PINK
• Hawken Fishing AERO-BEAD #C1 - STEELHEAD PINK CLUSTER
• Hawken Fishing AERO-BEAD #C3 - STEELHEAD ORANGE CLUSTER

Why these fit

These are the strongest matches because they’re all soft bead options built for egg imitation rigs, which is the most common “soft plastic rigging” use in this set.

• AERO-BEAD #5 - COSMIC PINK and AERO-BEAD #6 - PEACH are good all-around single beads for clear to stained water and low-light conditions.
• AERO-BEAD #7 - PRAWN PINK is a more subtle natural egg profile when fish are cautious.
• AERO-BEAD #C1 - STEELHEAD PINK CLUSTER and AERO-BEAD #C3 - STEELHEAD ORANGE CLUSTER are better when fish want an egg cluster look, especially in river current.

Technique notes

Thread the bead on a leader and fish it as a drift rig or float rig for salmon and steelhead.

• Use single beads when you want a smaller, cleaner egg imitation.
• Use cluster beads when fish are focused on drifting roe clusters.
• Best in clear, stained, deeper, or low-light water where UV/fluorescent colors help.
• Keep the presentation natural and close to bottom or in the current seam.

When to switch

Switch away from bead rigs if fish are not keyed on eggs or are reacting more to movement than scent/profile.

• If you need more action, move to a moving lure or bait presentation.
• If fish are ignoring bright colors, try a subtler bead or a different drift depth.
• If you’re not fishing salmon/steelhead, these are not the right match.
