Product Description

Semperfli Spyder thread has been a long loved thread for tiny flies. Now we have taken it to the next level with 18/0 Classic Waxed. 18/0 Classic Waxed, a traditional tying thread, was specially developed to be semi translucent so that the threads help adopt the shade of the  fly  pattern.  18/0 Classic Waxed has 2  fine  strands  of  thread  twisted together. It has a breaking strain of approximately 400gm - for comparison tests show Uni Caenis to have a breaking strain of 85g & Danville  Spiderweb  breaking  strain  is  approximately 142gm. The strength of 18/0 Classic Waxed in comparison will give the fly tyer confidence when tying small flies that their thread will hold better.  With 2 strands 18/0 Classic Waxed will also lay reasonably flat  when tying flies. 18/0 Classic Waxed is  aimed  for  fly  tyers  wanting  to  tie  small  flies  as  an alternative to threads like Uni Caenis or Whisp which are weaker threads. In developing 18/0 Classic Waxed the team wanted a micro thread which had some strength, laid flat

  • Good friendly advice

    For nearly twenty years we have been buying modest amounts of fishing gear and baits from Fyne Tackle and we always get some good friendly advice of what to use and where to go for both fresh and salt water fishing. Good stuff.

    A nice range of outdoor and wet weather clothing - not that we need it too often in Scotland ;) makes MacGilp's a regular holiday stop.

  • Highly recommend this store

    Went in looking for some advice as to where to take kids with attention span of a flea fishing. We were given some great advice, bought some tackle fit for purpose. Highly recommend this store for anyone looking to buy tackle and get expert knowledge of the area for all aspects of angling.
