Victor Hudson –
Used this thread for tying large streamers and predator flies. The two-core structure makes it easy to split for dubbing. It holds well without breaking and doesn’t clog the bobbin. Strong and reliable for heavy-duty fly tying.
Rebecca Sharp –
Great strength and smooth handling. The wax keeps the materials in place without making the thread sticky. Perfect for deer hair spinning and large flies. Works well on hook sizes 8 and up.
Sam Jones –
Solid thread for my streamer patterns. It lays flat and splits cleanly. A bit stiffer than some other threads, but that’s expected for 6/0. Satisfied with the performance and consistency.
