Textreme Midge Thread
Textreme Midge Thread is a slightly textured tying thread available in brilliant colors. Ideal for tying thin and smooth fly bodies, it works well as a base for biots and quills on small-bodied flies. Perfect for nymphs, wet flies, and dry flies on hook sizes 16 to 22. It provides a smooth base for wrapping natural and synthetic quills and biots, and is especially suitable for chironomids. The fluorescent colors and texture make it an excellent hot spot for dry flies, wet flies, and nymphs—particularly effective in collars, butts, tails, and ribs. Available in a wide range of natural and vibrant colors.

I’ve used this thread for several dry fly patterns and it holds well. The texture gives a nice grip on the hook and the colors stand out in the water. Great for small bodies and works perfectly with biots.

The 75 denier is just right for thin bodies. It doesn’t fray and stays strong through the tying process. I used it on a chironomid pattern and the fluorescent color made the fly more visible in low light.

Solid thread with good texture. A bit more expensive than standard threads, but the performance in the field justifies the price. Works well for wet flies and nymphs.
