Wapsi Bead Chain Eyes

Wapsi Bead Chain Eyes are a simple, effective way to add profile and balance to a wide range of saltwater and freshwater fly patterns. Lightweight and easy to work with, they help flies swim naturally without overpowering the design.

They’re especially killer on baitfish patterns, pike streamers, and stillwater trout flies where you want a clean silhouette and a controlled sink rate. Bead chain eyes are a great option when dumbbells are too heavy but you still want your fly to track right.

Whether you’re tying everyday lake flies, dialing in pike patterns, or building saltwater flats flies, these eyes give you consistency without complication.
