Ultra Thread is purpose-engineered for fly tying, making it ideal for tying saltwater and warmwater flies on hook sizes #8 and larger. Unlike many generic threads, UTC Ultra Thread is crafted from nylon rather than polyester, giving it excellent stretch and gripping power that ensures tight, uniform wraps for superior material control.

Its lightly waxed, flat construction prevents build-up and enhances material coverage, making it a staple for tying bulky or weighted patterns. Available in an array of vibrant colors, this high-quality thread allows tyers to create durable and eye-catching flies with ease.
