More About Fly Tying Thread & Wire
Fly tying thread and wire are the foundation of every fly, and this collection brings together established names including Danville, Wapsi, UNI Products, Veevus and Semperfli. For most patterns, you can find a useful weight, material and color to bring it together at the vise.
Popular threads and spooled materials

- Holographic tinsel from Veevus for flash and accents.
- Single-strand floss from UNI Products.
- Classic flat waxed nylon from Danville.
The thread you choose affects a fly's durability and appearance, so it is worth experimenting to find what works for your style. From fine threads for delicate dries to stronger materials for durable nymphs and streamers, this range covers every technique in one place. To choose by denier and material, see our fly tying thread comparison guide, and to match thread size to a fly, read which thread size to use for which fly.
What thread weight should a beginner use?
A 70 denier (8/0) thread balances strength and low bulk for most trout-size dry flies and nymphs, making it a forgiving starting point.
