Price: $3.89
- Quantity in Basket: none
Classic Waxed Thread 12/0 70D been designed specifically for fly tying for midges, emergers and dry flies and is recommended for hook sizes 10 to 20. Many tyers are moving to our 12/0 thread in preference to traditional 8/0 because it is still strong with a breaking strain of 489gm (17.25oz) but presents a thinner profile thread. This thread lays flat with a two core construction but can easily be split to create dubbing loops
Classic Waxed Thread 12/0 is the Rolls Royce of tying threads. Benefits include:
- 240 yards per spool representing great value
- will lay flat on your hook
- has just the right amount of wax on it for fly tying
- is easy to split it if you wish
- Breaking strain 489gm or 17.25oz
- Ideal for hook sizes 10 to 20

Body Materials - Flymen Fish-Skull Faux Bucktail
- Code: M-FLYBKTL
-
Price: $8.75
- Quantity in Basket: none
Tapered synthetic fly tying fibers.
Tie flies of all types and sizes from nymphs to Clousers to T-Bones with Fish-Skull Faux Bucktail, a tapered synthetic multi-use fly tying fiber designed to imitate typical premium-length natural bucktail.
Fish-Skull Faux Bucktail fibers have the same basic diameter, gentle crinkle, and taper as natural bucktail. In appearance, it looks almost identical and has the same distinctive bucktail fly or lure action in the water. However, the fibers are not hollow (which helps your fly sink faster) and will not flare in the same way as regular bucktail while tying. This means you will need to tie with slightly different techniques to achieve the same effect.
Every Faux Bucktail fiber is premium 6 in (152 mm) length, giving you more than twice the amount of usable fibers per tail and eliminating the headache of sorting and searching for ideal strands. Simply peel off the full length of your desired amount of fibers, trim to length, and tie them in.
The fibers can be used in a wide range of fly or lure types.
- Trout flies: Beautiful tapered wrapped "quill" bodies, nymph wing cases, Mayfly tails and legs.
- Streamers: From tying typical Clouser Minnows or Deceivers right up to large, "bite-proof" Pike, Musky or Golden Dorado flies.
- Poppers: Tie simple and durable tails on foam poppers
- Bucktail Jigs: Tougher, longer lasting fresh and saltwater bucktail jigs.
- Musky Bucktail Lures or dressed trebles.
