Pulleys

Sea Pulley Beads

Pulley beads are the heart of a pulley rig — they spread the load on the cast, allow the line to run freely and help the sinker rise clear of the hooked fish to reduce snags. At Gerrys Fishing we stock pulley beads and sliding pulley swivels chosen for saltwater durability and reliable performance on UK beaches and estuaries.

What pulley beads do and why they matter

A purpose‑built pulley bead combines a wide body with a rolling swivel or sliding action so the rig body doesn’t part under the stress of a long cast, and the sinker can travel above the fish when it runs — this improves hookup reliability and reduces lost rigs. Pulley beads are also used to build paternoster and Portland style rigs and can double as a neat running swivel in many setups.

What we stock

We offer plastic and composite pulley beads, combined bead‑and‑swivel units, and multi‑pack options in common sizes so anglers can build or repair pulley rigs quickly. Packs range from small 6–10 bead sets to larger value packs for regular rig makers, and items are selected for hardwearing bodies and smooth action to protect rig bodies and knots. We also carry rubber shock beads and tapered spacer beads to finish pulley rigs neatly.

How to choose pulley beads

  • Match bead size to rig body: larger beads spread load better on heavy long‑cast rigs; smaller beads suit lighter pulley setups.
  • Choose combined swivel‑bead units for simplicity and reduced tangles on the cast.
  • Buy multi‑packs if you tie lots of rigs — they’re cost effective and keep spares on hand.
    Look for beads with a smooth bore and low friction so the line runs freely and the pulley action works as intended.

Rigging tips from Gerrys Fishing

  • Position a soft shock bead between the clip and pulley bead to protect knots on long casts.
  • Test the pulley action at home before you fish so you know how the sinker will rise and how the rig will behave on a strike.
  • Carry spares of the most used sizes; pulley beads are small, cheap insurance against lost rigs and long waits on the bank.

FAO

  • What bead for long casting? Use a wide‑bodied pulley bead or combined bead‑swivel to spread the load and reduce the chance of the rig body parting.
  • Can pulley beads be used for other rigs? Yes — they’re useful in paternoster and Portland rigs and as a running swivel in many setups.
  • How to store pulley beads? Keep in labelled packets or a small parts box to avoid mix‑ups and protect soft components.
