Slotted tungsten beads for fly tying add flash and fast sink rates. Ideal for nymphs, jig hooks, and bead-head flies in rivers, lakes, and still waters.
Add weight and sparkle to your fly tying patterns with these faceted slotted tungsten beads. Designed for fast-sinking bead-head flies, they help your nymphs reach the strike zone quickly while adding the flash needed to grab attention. Whether you're tying Copper Johns, Evil Weevils, or Woolly Buggers, these beads improve performance in both still and moving water.
Each bead is crafted from high-density tungsten alloy with a slotted opening that fits securely on jig hooks and curved fly hooks. The faceted disco-ball surface reflects light from every angle, increasing visibility underwater and mimicking natural flash. This added shine can make a key difference when targeting trout and other freshwater species.
Available in four sizes (2.5mm to 4.0mm) and multiple colours—red, green, rose, and gold—these beads offer flexibility for different fly styles and water depths. Whether you need subtle colour or a bright accent, these fly tying materials blend well with feathers, dubbing, flashabou, or even 3D fish eyes for a more lifelike effect.
The slotted design makes them easier to mount on jig hooks, especially when tying European-style nymphs or curved patterns. With options of 100PCS or 400PCS per lot, they’re ideal for bulk tying, season prep, or creating a full range of flies for rivers, streams, and lakes.
Perfect for all skill levels, these tungsten beads bring together weight, shine, and durability—helping you tie flies that look better and sink faster.
