FFGene Tungsten Beads Jig Off Metallic
FFGene Tungsten Beads Jig Off Metallic are tungsten beads with an offset hole and metallic finish for nymphs and jig-style flies. They combine concentrated ballast with a reflective surface that can add a visible flash to the pattern.
Construction and use
The offset hole changes the bead’s position on the hook, so check its seating and balance on the selected jig hook before beginning the tying sequence. Tungsten helps load the fly for a quick descent, while the metallic finish reflects light underwater. Match the opening to the hook eye and bend; after sliding the bead into position, secure it with a thread collar behind the head.
