Shiny material which can replace floss. Tough and stretchy, easy to use. Bright colors, good for butts on steelhead flies. 30 yd. spools, 270 denier, breaking strength of 53 oz.
This is a nice alternative to thread bodies. It also is a reasonable alternative to floss that is significantly easier to work with, however I find it lacks the shine and translucency of floss. This is also a great way to build up a slim body on dry flies instead of dubbing, I really like the look of the body this makes on a stimulator or elk-hair caddis.

Easy to use, got all the colors. Great to use to build up bodies. Also use as shuck and whatever else I can think of, very stretchy.

I have used this stuff for nymph abdomens, soft hackle bodies, streamer bodies, emerger bodies and tailing shucks. It would be great if they would come out with day-glow colors for steelhead patterns.
