Welcome to the TroutBeads.com website...

At TroutBeads we focus on re-creating the true colors and size of the fish eggs found drifting in your local waters.

We've also developed a large selection of attractor colors to be used for Tube Flies, Trolling Flies, Spin Glo rigs and Lure building.
 
As you view this site and read the How To's and Testimonials, you'll learn that matching TroutBeads to the egg drifting in the rivers is the most effective egg fishing technique ever developed. It's been a tightly held secret in many areas. But, all good things eventually come to light.

Fishing is a process of outwitting your prey with creations that most imitate


what fish are feeding on at a specific time of year. Matching exactly what fish are looking for, will magnify your fishing experience during spawns and when fish are seeking only eggs. All the eggs they see are SINGLE... drifting along the bottom of the streams one at a time. NOT in clusters. Salmon, Trout and Steelhead do not spawn in clusters. You will occasionally see two and sometimes three eggs sticking together but the mass majority are singles.

TroutBeads also have the exact same neutral bouyancy as natural fish eggs, which is another reason (besides color) that make this technique so effective. From the East coast to the West coast, Salmon, Trout and Steelhead guides have counted on TroutBeads egg matching colors to maximize catch rates when fish are chasing eggs.

With nearly 400 products, in different colors and sizes, you will be able to match nearly every egg hatch found in your local stream, river or creek.

... See you on the water!

TroutBeads, since the beginning has been about listening to YOU, the customer and using every resource within the market to create the best products possible. Our focus is fishing beads and ONLY fishing beads.

One of the most requested products since the beginning is " glow in the dark " beads in a range of sizes. The challenge though, was to make them glow for hours NOT minutes. With a 2 minutes charge, these beads will glow for over 8 hours.

With the ever increasing population pressuring our local waters during daylight hours, there is an emerging night fishery (where legal). From the East coast to the West coast, one of the most effective products is GlowBeadz

Brown Trout are extremely active night feeders. So besides Salmon, Rainbow and Steelhead, Browns can make for an exciting evening. Even when eggs are not the fish's primary target, you can peg a bead ahead of a lure or streamer and WHAMO! The light given off by the bead creates an enticing natural flash.

As always, keep an eye on the website for new stuff and a HUGE thank you to all our customers who have supported us through the years.

Sincerely, Cameron & Sandy Hawthorne

This late August my brother, Grandpa & I caught over a hundred dollies in three hours. We were fishing a small tributary to a secret lake on Prince of Wales Island in SE Alaska. The sockeye were running and the trout were there.

My first cast went into a hanging tree and left my bead dangling and skimming the surface of the water and a trout from 5 feet away took the bead and unsnagged me in the process! The rest of the hours were filled with a trout hitting the beads on literally every single cast. TroutBeads are the most effective method I've used for fall trout here in Alaska.

To the right is a beautiful winter chrome steelhead on Prince of Wales Island I caught on an 8mm BloodDot Orange Clear .

Great product!

I have been trying TroutBeads for approximately 2 years now, but started really using them in the spring of 2009. I have had GREAT success using your product. I am a centerpinner and have been for over 20 years. I have tried many, many products in that time period, but have not had the success rate that I have had with your product.

You have excellent products and made a TRUE believer out of me. Keep up the great work !!!

New BeadHooks designed by TroutBeads specifically for bead fishing

Bead fishing has been around for years...

Now..., TroutBeads.com is proud to offer a new hook designed for bead fishing. BeadHooks have been tried and tested from small tribs to the largest of rivers. These hooks are not only RAZOR SHARP, but also extremely strong.

* When fishing, use size 4 or 6 with 12mm beads-
Use size 6 or 8 with 10mm beads, and use size 8 with 6 & 8mm beads. 

This steelhead was caught in the third week of april on a 8mm mottled  tangerine bead. It still has its sea lice by my left hand. Great  product.

I was recently fishing (floating the Green at the flows) with a friend who uses your TroutBeads religiously. I witnessed many large fish go out of their way to eat the bead... Good stuff! I look forward to having them in my flybox... Thanks

Paul Killino

Just wanted to say that you guys make the best beads out there! I’ve used many types of beads but nothing like Troutbeads. I took a sample from the river and compared it to your eggs and not only are they identical but they have the same buoyancy as natural roe.

Thanks again, Nate Taylor
