Glass beads serve two main functions: they create visual attraction with their transparent or fluorescent appearance, and they produce an acoustic signal when sliding against a bullet weight during the retrieve. This combination of sight and sound triggers feeding responses in predatory fish.
Transparent beads work best in clear water and bright light conditions, providing a natural appearance that doesn't spook cautious fish. UV beads excel in murky water, low light, or at dawn and dusk when their fluorescence provides enhanced visibility and attraction.
4mm beads work well with smaller softbaits and lighter rigs, offering subtle appeal without overwhelming the presentation. 6mm beads suit larger softbaits and heavier presentations, providing more prominent visual and acoustic feedback. Choose based on your target fish size and softbait dimensions.
Typically, use 1-2 beads per rig depending on your preference and setup. The standard Carolina rig uses one bead between the weight and swivel, while some anglers add a second bead for increased acoustic effect. With 20 beads per pack, you can build 10-20 complete rigs.
Yes, glass beads work in various finesse rigs including Texas rigs, wacky rigs, and drop shot rigs. Position the bead based on your rig design: typically between the weight and swivel in weighted setups, or anywhere along the leader for visual appeal. Their versatility makes them an essential tackle component.

Elevate your finesse rigs with Westin Glass Beads, available in transparent and UV fluorescent colors. These precision-engineered beads slide onto your leader and create enticing presentations that draw predatory fish.
Transparent beads provide a natural, subtle look that works across all water conditions. UV beads glow with vibrant fluorescence, creating high visibility in turbid water and low-light situations. The beads' optical properties trigger feeding responses in pike, perch, and other predators.
When beads contact a bullet weight during a Texas or Carolina rig retrieve, they produce a distinctive clicking sound that attracts fish from distance. This acoustic cue combined with visual stimulation increases bite frequency.
Use glass beads in Carolina rigs, Texas rigs, and wacky rigs. The 4mm and 6mm diameters suit different softbait presentations and angling techniques. Each pack contains 20 individual beads for building multiple rigs.
