Description
Plummeting Tungsten Beads are high-density fly tying beads designed to get flies down quickly and keep them in the strike zone. Made from tungsten—significantly heavier than brass—these beads provide maximum sink rate without increasing size, allowing tiers to maintain natural proportions while adding serious weight. Their smooth finish and precision-drilled holes make them easy to slide onto hooks and secure in place.
Best Uses:
- Euro Nymphs: A staple for tight-line and competition-style nymphing where getting flies down quickly is critical. Keeps patterns in the strike zone throughout the drift.
- Deep Nymphing: Ideal for fast water and deeper runs where added weight is needed to reach bottom efficiently without adding too much bulk.
- Jig Flies: Perfect for jig-style hooks, helping flies ride hook point up while maintaining a fast sink rate and natural drift.
- Keel: Great for adding consistent, reliable weight to saltwater or streamer patterns to ensure they keel and sink properly.
