Fly patterns tied on jig hooks with oversize tungsten beads have become a mainstay of White River fly fishing since the advent of minimum water flow rates.
As the heaviest fly in a multi-fly nymph rig the "Euro-style Jigs" work as a camouflaged split shot with the added advantage of a hooking point, to carry lighter nymphs, sowbugs, soft hackles and midges where they need to be.
Fish these in euro-style or traditional indicator rigs, wading or floating. The wire bodies sink fast, and tied this way are extremely durable.
