Quick take
Fluorescent orange fly-tying thread on a 100-yard spool for securing materials and finishing flies.
Flymaster Plus 140 denier is a waxed nylon fly-tying thread from Danville, sold one spool at a time in a fluorescent orange shade. Each spool holds 100 yards, enough for plenty of mid-sized to larger flies. The bright color works for tying hot spots, collars and heads that stand out against darker materials.
Best for
- Tying small to medium flies and nymphs
- Flies for low-light conditions
- Wing cases and pattern details

- You tie very large saltwater flies regularly
- You prefer lighter denier for delicate patterns
Strengths
- 100 yards covers dozens of fly-tying sessions

Trade-offs
