    Default help with thread/materials


    I starting to buy some items to tye some jigs and i could use some help.
    I want to tie some jigs using nylon as the tail like the northland or lindy quiver jig.
    Any idea what thread to use for the tail and size?
    im mainly going to be tying smaller jigs 1/100 oz or smaller. what thread would you recomend for these?
    should i bother with GSP for wrapping?

    any ideas on bobbins? ive been looking at the rite shorty, renzetti midge and the stonfo compact.
    how many bobbins should i start with?
    thanks rob

    Man that a lot of different topics and questions. First the tools should be something you like how it feels in your hands and of course good quality. Thread is again one of the tings you have to adjust to when tying, but tiny jigs you probably should not sue what most of us do which is the Danville 210 Denier and for you I would suggest trying some of the 140 Denier. Again brands of things is mostly a personal choice thing as they can cost pretty good!
