Thanks Mike. I know about Veernus but haven't tried it yet. Took along time for me to fined thread I couldn't break and so far Flymaster plus and UTC have fit the bill. I will try the Veenus I was planning on trying it and your endorsement just make me want to try is all that much more. Thanks

Dick, If you want strong thread try Veevus.

I use Veevus 8/0 and break it less than the 3/0 I used to tie with! It's not cheap to buy, but it sure is tough if you need strong thread.

Jim I wrapped then in Danville's Flymaster Plus its 210 denier. It's the only thread I don't break when I'm tying.
