Ultra Thread 70 denier is great for small flies. There is little or no thread build up, reducing eye crowding. Great for size #18 and smaller, especially midges, allows you to have more say so on how the body looks b/c of the low to 0 thread build up. I recomend this to anyone tying primarily #18 & smaller.
This is the standard to which all thread should be measured. While I tend to switch to a stronger thread for some streamers, this thread is great for dry flies, nymphs, and even strong enough for most streamers.
The kit that I started tying with included several spools of this thread and I used to have quite a bit of trouble with fraying and breakage. I have since started using Danville 6/0 Flymaster+ instead and found it to work much better for me. I would be unlikely to go back to Ultra Thread in the 70 denier.
Sits flat on the hook when you need it to and can easily cord up. Easy to split for dubbing loops and comes in a number of colors. This is the thread I usually have on my bobbin. Works well for small flies too!
I've bought two spools of this. I usually use uni thread but I thought I would give this a try. The first spool was great and I use it regularly. The second spool gave me problems. I don't know if there was a defect but the spool began to unwind from the middle and break and fall apart.
