Product information "Slotted Tungsten Beads (gold)"
Slotted Tungsten Beads for Fly Tying
TRAUN RIVER Slotted Tungsten Beads provide effective weight for nymphs, jig nymphs and other weighted fly patterns. The precision slot makes the beads easy to slide onto a wide range of fly hooks and jig hooks.
Tungsten has a high density, allowing fly tyers to add considerable weight in a compact size. This helps your nymphs reach the desired fishing depth quickly without requiring an oversized bead.
Ideal for Nymphs and Jig Hooks
The slotted design provides greater versatility than a conventional round-hole bead. It is particularly useful when tying modern jig nymphs, making it easier to fit the tungsten bead onto curved and angled jig hooks.
This makes Slotted Tungsten Beads an excellent choice for Euro Nymphing, Czech Nymphing and traditional nymph fishing.
Choose the bead diameter according to the desired fly size and sink rate. Larger tungsten beads help heavy nymphs reach deep pools and fast currents quickly. Smaller beads allow you to tie subtle, compact nymph patterns while still adding substantial weight.

Tungsten Bead and Hook Size Guide

The Benefits of Slotted Tungsten Beads
Slotted Tungsten Beads are an essential material for modern nymph tying. The slot makes them easy to combine with jig hooks, while the high density of tungsten gets your fly down to the desired fishing depth quickly. This allows you to tie compact, heavily weighted nymphs for different currents and water depths.

Grayling Special Leader (with Loop)
You will have noticed that longer finer leaders and light tippets are necessary when dry fly fishing for wary species, such as Grayling, on clear days. This induced us to develope the Grayling Special Leader.By precisely balancing the seperate sections of the Grayling Special we have produced a very accurate leader with excellent turn over qualities. It doesn‘t matter if you fish with small dry flies or the smallest midges, with the Grayling Special you will notice the difference. The shock absorbing section in the butt part of the leader is a cushion against breaking very fine tippets. You can of course use this leader for wary Trout as well. Emergers and weighted nymphs that do not have to be fished too deeply also pose no problem for the Grayling Special.
