Dinko Bosnjak
Fishing has been in my blood since I could walk! My passion for steelhead and salmon started young—I caught my first 36” steelhead at just 9 years old, and I was hooked for life. In 2014, I was introduced to fishing beads, and they completely changed the game. These handcrafted, water-tested beads have been producing incredible results in rivers worldwide for years. Now, as CEO of Reelbeads, I’m excited to share my passion, knowledge, and proven techniques to help anglers everywhere land more fish than they ever imagined! Beyond fishing, I’m a husband and father of two, making every adventure even more meaningful.

Fishing has been a part of my life since childhood, growing up in a family with a deep-rooted passion for the outdoors. Over the past nine years, I’ve focused on steelhead and salmon, constantly refining my skills. Co-founding a bead business was a natural step after seeing how effective they were. When they disappeared from the market, we brought them back to help anglers experience the same success. What drives me most is sharing my knowledge—whether helping someone land their first fish or perfecting their technique. Fishing, hunting, and teaching others are my greatest passions, and I’m excited to share them with you!

OUR STORY
Over 30 years ago, Ron crafted a few beads to test on the river- never expecting they would spark a revolution. As anglers took notice of the incredible results, demand soared. Through years of dedication, innovation, and rigorous on-the-water testing, those early beads evolved into the high-performance products we offer today.

What bead size do I use for trout, steelhead, and salmon fishing?At ReelBeads, selecting the right bead size is crucial for a successful fishing experience. For trout, we recommend using beads in the 6mm to 8mm range, as these sizes best mimic the natural food sources of trout. For steelhead, beads in the 8mm to 10mm range work exceptionally well, offering the perfect blend of visibility and appeal. When targeting salmon, opt for larger beads in the 10mm to 12mm range, which are more effective in attracting these robust fish. Our enthusiastic team at ReelBeads is dedicated to offering a wide variety of bead sizes to cater to your specific fishing needs, ensuring you reel in your best catch every time!

What bead sizes are best for clear water conditions when fishing for trout, steelhead, and salmon?When fishing in clear water conditions, choosing the right bead size can significantly improve your chances of success. At ReelBeads, we recommend using smaller beads, typically in the range of 6mm to 8mm. The reason for this is that fish are generally more cautious in clear water and smaller beads tend to mimic natural food sources more closely, making them less likely to spook the fish. Additionally, smaller beads offer a more subtle presentation and are ideal for clearer waters where a natural look is key. Always consider the specific water clarity and sunlight conditions, as these can slightly alter what might work best. Happy fishing!

What bead sizes are best for murky water when fishing for trout, steelhead, and salmon?At ReelBeads, we recommend using larger bead sizes, such as 10mm or 12mm, when fishing in murky water. Larger beads are more visible and can create more vibration, attracting fish even in low-visibility conditions. Additionally, consider using bright and contrasting colors to further enhance visibility. Our top-quality beads are specifically designed to improve your chances of success in challenging environments, ensuring you get the best results every time you venture out.
