[font "Comic Sans MS"][#008000][size 2]since this forum seems to be asleep (and Im hoping its because everyone is fishing) I thought Id post another what do you think type question...
while looking on line I noticed a site with a good deal on thread...but then I started looking at the threads and my mind went numb.. dead.. fried.. frazzled.. [crazy]
the variety of threads.. waxed.. unwaxed.. floss.. teflon.. kevlar ... denier , x/0 and on and on...
so here is a poser of a question...
in general.. what type of thread do you keep stocked and on hand for your "general" fly tying needs...
is it waxed or unwaxed and why either way..
do you go by x/0 rating or denier.. and why either way..
do you prefer a certain name brand like uni or danville.. .
and lastly.. what size and colors do you keep in stock the most... (ex. 6/0/ and 8/0 uni thread in black, red, green etc)
again.. this is for general, keep on hand because you know you are gonna use it) fly tying...
