Hareline Fly Tying Cone Heads - Large 1/4\", Nickel

Overview

Hareline Fly Tying Cone Heads are premium brass cone beads designed for large pattern flies. The nickel finish delivers a bright, durable look that stands up to sun, wind, and water. The tapered cone shape guides thread wraps and reduces bulk, while the 1/4 inch diameter adds measured weight, helping your streamer or muddler minnow sink with control and maintain a natural silhouette in the water.

Key features

• Tapered cone shape creates a clean, balanced profile and helps wraps stay aligned
• Adds intentional weight for depth control and lifelike movement
• Durable nickel coating resists wear during tying and fishing
• Smooth bore accepts standard tying thread and materials for tidy wraps
• Pack of 24 ensures a reliable supply for ongoing tying projects
• Brass core provides consistent density for predictable performance

In practice

When attached to streamer or baitfish designs, these cone heads influence the fly’s buoyancy, sink rate, and action. The beveled edge of the cone helps finishes glide smoothly, while the coating maintains a bright appearance in varying water conditions.

Pattern ideas

• Streamers and muddler minnows that benefit from extra weight and a defined nose
• Weighted baitfish patterns that require a durable, smooth finish
• Bead-head variations on traditional ties for a steady, balanced profile

Packaging and brand story

Each pack contains 24 cone heads, providing ample components for multiple tying sessions without frequent replacements.

Hareline Dubbin began in 1981 in Monroe, Oregon, starting from a kitchen stove and twelve colors of Dubbing. From those humble beginnings, the brand grew into a 45,000 square foot facility with thousands of fly tying products ready to deliver.

Care and storage

Store in a dry place and reseal packaging after use to prevent oxidation and dust accumulation, ensuring long-term readiness for your next tying project.
