Quick take
A 150 piece assortment of tungsten beads in varied sizes and colors for tying weighted nymphs.
This is a pack of 150 slotted tungsten beads in a copper finish, 2.8mm, with a bullet-shaped head. The slot lets the bead slide onto a hook and sit snug, which suits beadhead nymphs and jigging patterns. Tungsten is dense, so these beads add weight to a fly without adding much bulk, helping a nymph get down toward the bottom.
Best for
- Beadhead nymph tying
- Weighted streamer construction
- Jig-style fly patterns
Skip if
- You prefer brass beads for their tone
- You tie small flies with minimal weight
Strengths
- Tungsten sinks faster than traditional brass beads
- 13 sizes cover flies from panfish to large trout
- 12 colors let you match various forage patterns
Trade-offs
- Slotted design may split thread if not careful
- 150 pieces goes a long way but may be overkill for beginners
