Textreme Micro Floss (110 denier)

Textreme uses the term “floss” technically here, as this is a twisted multifilament thread, but don’t think of this stuff as being like the old Rayon flosses. This is the thicker version of the 70d Midge Thread and would make a good substitute for UTC 140 in situations where you need a thread to flatten out and make smooth thread bases or bodies. (Please note that it doesn’t have as high a tensile strength as UTC 140 so it’s not good for flies where you really need to crank down on bulky or difficult to secure materials, for that you should use something like the Standard Thread 3/0.) You can also use it as a ribbing on smaller nymphs like the Soft Hackle Carrot, or as a silk substitute on smaller thread bodied flies like soft hackles.
