FLY TYING THREADS
The best thread in our opinion is Unithread, if you are a new tyer use the 6/0, graduate to the 8/0 and you will probably use nothing else for tiny flies to larger tubes. Uni products are excellent. A new thread is the Power Silk which is very fine and almost unbreakable, we use this on the heads of most of our flies.
UNI - THREAD

UNI-THREAD (SIZE 8/0 Finer - 6/0 Slightly Thicker)
