Quick take
Lightweight fly tying bobbin with ergonomic grip and spring steel spool holder for comfort during fly tying.
The Loon Ergo Bobbin is a fly-tying thread holder with a powder-coated handle that rests between thumb and fingers. Its spring steel spool holder lets you change thread tension just by varying your grip pressure. The tube is sized to work with small flies yet is long enough for larger patterns, making it a handy everyday tool at the vise.
