Premium Tungsten Coneheads for Fly Tying

Get your streamers down instantly into the deepest pools and fastest currents where the largest fish hold. Tungsten Coneheads are an essential material for serious fly tiers looking to maximize their sink rates without adding bulk to their profiles. Because tungsten is nearly twice as heavy as traditional brass, these heavy-duty cones cut through the water column effortlessly, letting you swing and jig your streamers directly through the strike zone.

Perfect for tying sculpins, woolly buggers, and large baitfish imitations, these cones provide a clean, professional finish. They add an attractive flash and a distinct nose-heavy action that predatory fish find irresistible.

How to Tie with Tungsten Coneheads

Incorporating these heavy cones into your custom streamer patterns is incredibly simple:

1. Prep the Hook: Slide the conehead onto your fly tying hook (small opening facing the hook eye) prior to securing the shank in your vise.

2. Seat the Cone: Push the cone forward so it rests snugly right behind the hook eye.

3. Build Your Fly: Attach your thread and build your preferred fly tying materials all the way to the back of the conehead, creating a secure, tapered transition.
