New jig hooks and slotted beads

Tried some new jig hooks from Allen and found them to be way to soft, heck they even bent while tying them but the worst part of them is the G--D-- beads maybe 1 out of 6 or 7 will go on the hook as they should (small hole first) they just will not go up the bend, total frustration trying to use them. I have always been able to just let beads drop from a 1/8" distance and found that I might have had to do it a few times but most times the small end will land face up then it was an easy task to get the bead started on the hook if the barb was smashed down but slotted beads will not lad the correct way! I just tried some new competition hooks from Tiemco and found them to be much stronger but even Hareline slotted tung. beads will not work well again maybe 1 out of 6 works well, if this shit continues I will just give up trying to use them, I like the idea of the hook point riding up for a good hook set and it keeps the bend above the bottom for a better snag free drift. I'll try my supply of normal black tung. beads and see if they are any better, anyone else having the same problem? From what I see it is the inconsistence in the hole diameters of the beads?
  I was at the Spring Creek Chapter of TU last Thursday night to see the results of the creel survey on Spring Creek and WOW is not an accurate description, they are talking about Montana  numbers of Brown trout per mile and the angler satisfaction was at an all time high, this corresponds to the Fish Comm. shocking stat's from a few years ago, Spring Creek trout numbers are high! The Spring Creek Chapter provided the man power to have people go out and conduct the Fish Comm. surveys and the PFC boys ran the numbers. I think the full report might be on the Spring Creek Chapter of TU's web site, just Google it. Along with the survey results the Chapter President gave a presentation of the last years projects and results, impressive is a very good word, any time you go to Spring Creek you will see the results of those projects and they are not done! Join them if only to help this coming year, they make you feel welcome and part of the solution, check them out.
