Uses

Comparisons

A great alternative to Hanaks Competition Fluo+ Slotted Tungsten Beads is Harelines Slotted Tungsten Beads. These beads are very heavy, come in a range of different colors, and also feature the slotted construction necessary for accommodating jig patterns. Both of these beads are excellent options for tying heavy patterns, and the main difference is that Harelines Slotted Tungsten Beads come in a wider range of colors, and they arent quite as round, so if youre looking for a specific shade or a very round appearance to your flys head, they may be a better choice for the application.
