RS – RACE SENSE SLIM SLOT.
The new Tungsten RS+ beads are a game‑changer in the world of fly fishing, designed to deliver enhanced performance by allowing larger beads to be used on smaller hooks. The beads feature a narrower slot, which increases their weight by up to 20% compared to conventional tungsten beads of the same diameter. This added weight improves sinking speed and overall fly stability—crucial for precise casting, fly control, take detection, and effective hook‑setting.
RS+ beads can be paired with various hooks, but they perform best when used with RS hooks, ensuring a perfect match between hook and bead for optimal results.
