Technical features:

• Packaging: rigid plastic box for secure transport and storage
• Compatibility: fits all types of nymph, perdigon or streamer patterns
• Use: premium fly-tying accessory for river and reservoir fishing

Benefits and product highlights:
Tungsten gives these beads a higher density than traditional brass, ensuring rapid weighting of the fly and efficient descent into currents. The Slot technology not only adapts perfectly to curved-shank and straight-shank hooks but also allows quick and secure placement. The metallic purple finish, prized for its attractive underwater reflections, maximizes visual attraction on wary fish and enhances sensory stimulation in rivers and reservoirs. Their resistance to wear and corrosion extends usable life even after many fishing sessions.

Usage tips and recommended rigs:
To fully benefit from Devaux Slot Metal Purple tungsten beads, we recommend:

• Choose a weighted head appropriate to hook size and the fly being tied (nymph, perdigon, streamer).
• Position the bead toward the front of the shank to ensure an optimal center of gravity and improved plunge.
• Use a reinforced tying thread to prevent premature wear and to secure the bead firmly.
• Opt for nymphing techniques such as sight nymphing, Spanish/Euro nymphing or natural dead drift, where descent speed is critical.

These beads are suitable for targeting wild trout in rivers as well as for technical reservoir fishing on educated fish.
