for the flies I do I certainly do not need "to get used to it".

That's the important bit Alan, it is certainly not suitable for traditional flies.
Would work well on your blobs though.  :makefun

I was after some power silk to try the detached mayfly bodies as instructed in O E's brilliant dvd's. I tried them with UA thread as instructed on a darning needle and when I tried to slide the body off it wouldnt budge. OE did say this would be the case and advised PS. Anyway payed a visit to the GAC this morning . They don't stock it. Will order it on line from somewhere.

If you must, bloody dear for what is after all a spool of coloured nylon.
:roll:

Thats the point - it's not just a spool of nylon it has a specific use. Just like if you need a sinker as well as a floater, a red game hackle rather than a black etc.

Sorry I forgot that, it comes in really pretty colours too & will cut through your hand to the bone. And you pay for this?
