Thanks for the info. The local fishing shops don't seem to have much selection for thread or rod building supplies. Perhaps a crafts store will have more thread to choose from.

I'm in the process of building my first rod with a kit I bought from cabela's. It's an 8wt, SLi. I've been taking it slow since I'm trying to learn it as I go. The thread colors that cabela's gives...

The subject of this thread brings up a good topic that I have wondered about. Of all the methods for adding weight to your line when nymphing, which do you guys prefer. My first experience was to...
