Dmarket Posted July 7 Report Share Posted July 7 Hi guys, I’m trying to find out the best match for these crimped beads as shown on this jackal buzzbait. Was going to order some crimping beads but didn’t want to waste $ on the cheap amazon craft stuff and didn’t see anything comparable on lurepartsonline. Thanks.

Tiderunner Posted July 14 Report Share Posted July 14 Not sure what you mean by "crimping beads", but try Janns Netcraft. Do search for Hollow Metal Beads, or Solid Metal Beads. Pretty sure either of these can be crimped. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiderunner Posted July 14 Report Share Posted July 14 Just checked Barlows. They have them as well, and also in smaller sizes than Janns. They used to be sold in metric sizes but I see now they're sold in standard measurement for us American folks. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ogajiga Posted July 17 Report Share Posted July 17 I use Hagen's salmon red premium plastic beads for propeller spin bearings super gllued on hook shanks. Stacked beads stay in place better than singles. There are reasons why the suggested beads are source, type, & color specific. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

21xdc Posted July 24 Report Share Posted July 24 Hollow won't crimp. Need solid for sure. Good luck. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
