Comparisons
A great alternative to Hanak’s Competition Metallic+ Slotted Tungsten Beads is Hareline’s 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 aside from some different color options between the two, there aren’t a whole lot of differences.
