This is a strong, waxed fly tying continuous polyester filament thread, measuring 72 denier. It has a breaking strength of 19 oz. Lies flat on the hook, strong for its diameter. 200 yd. spools.
Not really my favorite thread, it is ok for tying the fly, but when I try and whip finish more than four or five wraps it breaks when I try to pull the loop closed. It is strong, but for some reason it seems to break easily during a whip finish. I much prefer UTC.

Perfect all-around thread

this thread is the perfect all-around thread, ties well without adding much bulk, very strong, and is the ideal thread for all but the smallest trout flies.

I use UNI Thread 95% of the time when tying flies. The 8/0 works great for size 16 and smaller flies. I like the vast assortment of colors that is offered in this thread.
