Shift the Balance. Control the Drift.
These forward-weighted tungsten tear drops are engineered to change how your fly sinks, balances, and presents in the water column. Finished in raw, natural tungsten — the manufacturer's "Birthday Suit" — with no coating or plating to interfere with your finish or UV treatments. Purpose-built for tactical patterns that demand precise weighting and aggressive entry angles.
Why Tyers Choose Tear Drops
- Raw natural tungsten finish — bare "Birthday Suit" surface bonds cleanly with UV resins, epoxies, and custom finishes
- Forward-loaded profile — shifts weight to alter swim action and drift behavior
- Clean-drilled center — prevents rotation on the hook for a true, straight track
- 100% dense tungsten — maximum depth control in fast or technical water
- Competition-ready design — built for advanced euro and comp-style pattern construction
Ideal Applications
- Tactical euro nymphing patterns
- Perdigon variants
- Jig patterns requiring forward-loading
- Balanced nymphs and micro-streamers
- Flies designed to punch into the column quickly and track straight
