Slotted tungsten beads offer many advantages over traditional brass or lead beads. First and foremost, they are much denser and heavier than other beads, allowing your flies to sink quicker and get down to those hard-to-reach fish in deeper water. This extra weight also helps to create a realistic movement in the water, making your fly look more enticing to fish.

Slotted tungsten fly tying beads are designed to be used on jig fly tying hooks, allowing the hook to ride hook point up. You will be able to keep your fly close to the bottom without snagging. Increase quantity of your opportunities spending less time snagged.

One of the best things about using slotted tungsten beads is that they offer endless possibilities for customization. With a wide variety of sizes and colors available, you can mix and match to create unique color and size combinations in your nymphs and streamers.

Sink Faster, Fish Deeper: Tungsten is heavier than brass, giving your flies the extra weight needed to sink quickly without additional split shot. This ensures your fly reaches the desired depth faster, putting it right in the strike zone.

Enhanced Sensitivity: Tungsten's density removes slack and offers greater sensitivity when fishing under an indicator or tightline nymphing, allowing you to detect even the slightest bites and strikes. This improved feedback helps you set the hook at the perfect moment, increasing your chances of a good hookset.

Tungsten is a non-toxic material, making it an environmentally friendly option for fly tying. Additionally, its durable nature ensures these beads will last through countless fishing trips.

Slotted tungsten beads are quickly becoming a staple in every fly fisherman's toolkit. Whether you're targeting trout, bass, carp, or panfish.

Select the right size bead for your fly pattern, ensuring it fits snugly over the hook shank and sits just behind the eye, with the small round hole towards the eye of the hook, and the slot toward the bend of the hook. The slotted design allows the bead to slide around the bend of any hook effortlessly, making it ideal for various fly-tying applications.
