Devaux Tungsten Slot Matte Black Beads stand out for their strong weighting power, enabling a rapid descent to the targeted depth — ideal in strong currents or deep water. Their matte black color reduces unwanted reflections that could alert fish, ensuring enhanced realism and effectiveness. The slot machining improves compatibility with a wide variety of hooks, making your rigs more versatile.

4. Usage tips and recommended rigs
To maximize the effectiveness of Devaux Tungsten Slot Matte Black Beads, use a bead spinner or head that matches the bead diameter to ensure a perfect fit. These beads are particularly recommended for Czech nymphs, Perdigones and compact streamers. Thanks to the slot groove, insertion on curved shank or jig hooks is easier: be sure to correctly position the bead before securing your thread. We recommend complementing your assemblies with natural materials (feathers, dubbing) to fully exploit the realism provided by the matte finish.
