HERCULES140D Fly Tying Thread 12 Colors Non Waxed Fly Tying Wires Materials Kits Fly Tying Tieing Supplies for Dry Wet Flies

I really like the strength of this thread. I use it for tying all types of flies from dries to nymphs.

Work with it. It is good thread. Worth the purchase.

I ordered this to try and get a variety of colors quickly to tie walleye ties for an upcoming trip. Unfortunately, not a single one of the colors was usable - each thread was already frayed and coming apart as soon as it came off of the spool. Ended up going to a local shop (which was not open when I placed my original order) and purchased better quality products for my trip.

Good buy for the money.

Edited after some use: raised to 3 stars after spent some time with the thread. Not the best, not the worst.

I’ve used all but the orange and they seem fine but the olive color rips so easily I can’t cinch down as hard as I’d like.

Fly tying

When the package arrived, the thread looked good. A good color selection and I thought it would work for tying some flies. That is, until I actually tried to use it. When I first pulled some off the spool to thread my bobbin, the thread just turned to fluff. All the strands separated, like it was a fray in a shirt. I figured it was just the first bit off the spool. Nope. The more I pulled, the fluffier it became. It wasn't so much thread as it was a grouping of nylon strands that happen to be heading in the same general direction together. I tried to go ahead and tie a fly and I was able to get it onto the hook but as soon as I started wrapping further down the shank, it broke. I packed it all back up and decided to return it.Wouldn't recommend.

Holds up well against aggressive and toothy fish and I get more life out of my fly
