Hareline Slotted Tungsten Beads

Upgrade your fly patterns with premium tungsten slotted beads designed for serious fly tiers. These high-density beads help your flies sink quickly and track correctly, making them ideal for modern nymphing techniques, including euro and tight-line setups.

The precision-cut slot allows each bead to sit perfectly on jig hooks and curved nymph hooks, even around bends and larger wire diameters. This ensures better alignment, more consistent profiles, and improved hook gap for increased hook-up rates. Whether you’re tying slim, fast-sinking nymphs or bulkier patterns for deeper, faster water, these beads provide the weight and balance you need without adding unnecessary bulk.

Manufactured from tungsten, they offer significantly more weight than brass or glass beads of similar dimensions, meaning you can get down to the strike zone quicker with smaller, more natural-looking flies. They’re an excellent choice for:

• Euro nymphs and jig nymphs
• Perdigons and competition-style patterns
• Streamers, attractors, and lake patterns that need added weight
• Any subsurface fly where fast sink rate and compact profiles matter

Trusted by tiers for consistency and quality, these tungsten slotted beads are a staple on any fly tier’s bench. Stock up to cover a wide range of patterns and conditions, and keep your nymphs riding in the perfect position all day long.
