Trout Pegs

Trout pegs (also called trout bead pegs or steelhead bead stops) secure hard and soft beads in place for precise drifts and better hookups. At FishUSA, you’ll find silicone and rubber bead pegs, tapered plastic pegs, and classic wood pegs sized to fit popular bead diameters (6–14 mm). These bead stops grip the leader without damaging it, hold position through fast currents, and make quick color or size changes easy on the river. Peg your bead 1–2 inches above a hook for improved hook placement and reduced deep hooking when float fishing or drift fishing for trout and steelhead. Choose peg styles and sizes for snug, reliable fits that prevent bead slippage, protect your leader, and keep your presentation legal and consistent in changing flows. (Always check local regulations.)
