Jig Bombs are the solution to add more weight to your files. The trend of oversizing beads to add more weight means that tyers lose shank length and are limited to what hooks they can use. The unique teardrop shape of the Bomb’s means they are about 20% heavier than a standard slotted bead while keeping 15% more hook shank to create a body with. All of this means that flies maintain great proportions and drop into the zone and stay there.

Streamer and Leech patterns are designed to imitate subsurface creatures such as minnows, bait fish, and leeches. They are usually larger and heavier than most fly fishing patterns. Often these patterns require a specific fly line that is designed to cast heavy flies. Streamers and leeches can be effectively fished in rivers and lakes alike. By stripping the fly quickly, and sometimes with jerky movements, you can entice a fish to strike with force.
