Description

Spyder Thread 18/0 is a fine 30D, 18/0 traditional tying thread, with 2 fine strands of thread twisted together and is specially developed to be semi translucent so that the threads help adopt the shade of the fly pattern. It has a breaking strain of approximately 400gm to give the fly tyer confidence when tying small flies that their thread will hold better. Spyder is aimed for fly tyers wanting to tie small flies as an alternative to other weaker threads. Unwaxed. 100m (approx) per spool.

Field Notes

Fly tying thread used to build and secure small flies. The fine 18/0 size and semi-translucent finish make it well suited for delicate patterns where you want minimal bulk and a thread color that blends into the fly. Unwaxed construction is aimed at tyers who want smooth wraps and good control on small hooks.

Pros

  • Fine 18/0 thread is ideal for small flies
  • Semi-translucent finish helps match fly pattern shading
  • 100m spool provides plenty of tying material

Cons

  • Not intended for general fishing use
  • Fine thread may be less forgiving for heavy materials
