Slotted beads will slide around the bend of any hook, and they are heavier than countersunk beads because less metal has been removed from the spherical shape. They are also good to use with jig hooks on which the eye is offset at an angle to the shank. 20 beads per package.
The beads are bright and the paint holds up well. I haven't noticed any paint chipping so far (I've been using flies with these for almost a year) so I consider that a win!
