The silk floss holds color beautifully and is smooth to work with. I’ve used it for salmon flies and it looks great in the water. The wooden spool fits my bobbins perfectly.

I’ve used it for several Catskill style flies. The color stays true even after several weeks. A little more expensive but worth it for quality.
