At Spawn Fly Fish, we’ve always prided ourselves on being more than just innovators in the fly fishing world—we’re community builders. For years, we’ve embraced jig tying as a gateway to fly tying, opening the door for anyone to sit at the vise and explore the craft. Whether you’re tying a 4/0 bucktail jig or a size 20 Adams, we’re here to help you succeed and connect with the sport in meaningful ways.
Our mission is simple: to create connections between tying styles and approaches. Jig tiers often face challenges with traditional processes like pouring lead and painting jigs, which can be messy, time-consuming, and limiting in creativity. Meanwhile, slotted tungsten beads have been a staple in fly tying for years, offering ease of use and unparalleled versatility.
Now, we’re bridging the gap between these two worlds. With our new Fathom Beads, we’re bringing the advantages of tungsten slotted beads to the jig tying community. These beads are not just tools; they’re a glimpse into the future of jig tying.
Why Fathom Beads Are a Game-Changer
- Ease of Use: No more pouring or painting. Slide a Fathom Bead onto your favorite hook and start tying.
- Customizable: Experiment with different hooks, materials, and patterns effortlessly.
- Lead-Free: Perfect for regions where lead is outlawed, keeping you ahead of the curve with environmentally friendly alternatives.
- Versatility: Whether you’re tying for chuck-and-duck fly fishing techniques or creating conventional jigs, these beads unlock endless possibilities.
At Spawn Fly Fish, we’ve been leading the charge in slotted tungsten bead options for years. Our Spawn Super Beads gained widespread popularity for their quality and versatility, but we knew we could take it further. Fathom Beads are the next evolution, offering a seamless integration of modern materials and techniques for both fly and jig tiers.
Introducing Fathom Beads
Our first release includes:
- 8mm Fathom Beads (4 grams 1/8th ounce) – Available now in five-pack sets.
- 9mm and 10mm Beads – Coming soon with expanded options already in the works.
With plans to grow our color selection to over 20 shades across multiple sizes, the possibilities are endless. The faster we sell this first set, the quicker we’ll double down on production and bring these new options to market.
Fathom Beads are more than just a product—they’re a movement. They embody everything we believe in: innovation, creativity, and community. Whether you’re a seasoned jig tier or a curious beginner, these beads make it easier than ever to explore new techniques and push the boundaries of your tying.
