The Champion 8/0 Thread is expertly crafted for tying smaller, more intricate flies where precision, detail, and smooth wraps are key. Thanks to its ultra-fine 70 denier (DEN) construction, this thread is the perfect choice for delicate dry flies, nymphs, and any other fine detail work, making it the "bread and butter" of your fly-tying toolkit.
Key Features:
- Fine and Smooth: With an extremely fine cross-section, this 8/0 thread delivers smooth, delicate wraps without adding bulk—ideal for detailed flies like dry flies and nymphs.
- Semi-Transparent Finish: The semi-transparent nature helps the thread blend seamlessly into your materials, giving flies a subtle, natural look without overshadowing the vibrant colors of your fly materials.
- Versatile Use: Perfect for tying thread bodies or working as the main tying thread on small and very small fly patterns.
Highlight Features:
- Specially Developed for Small Flies: Designed for small to very small flies, providing strength and control in delicate fly-tying work.
- Easy to Wax: While it’s easy to apply wax to the thread, it’s not always necessary, depending on your needs.
- Thread End Fixed to Bobbin: The thread is conveniently fixed to the orange end of the bobbin for ease of use and smooth application.
- Easy to Split: Ideal for creating split-thread techniques for additional finesse.
Technical Details:
- Spool Length: 100 meters per spool
- Thread Size: 8/0
- Denier: 70 DEN
- Breaking Strength: 580 grams
- Elongation: 22-25%
- Material: Continuous filament polyester, semi-bonded, lightly twisted
Limitations:
- Semi-Bonded and Strong: While the semi-bonded construction adds durability and strength, the Champion 8/0 Thread is best suited for fine, delicate flies. For larger flies like streamers or saltwater patterns, which require higher tension, stronger threads like Sumo Power or GSP are recommended.
With its fine construction, smooth performance, and versatile use, the Champion 8/0 Thread is a go-to for any angler focused on precision and quality in their smaller fly patterns.

- Nice thread Review by Andrew
The thread is nice, thin and easy to use. I compared with other brands like Veevus and UTC and it seems to be thinner. Anyway I think you have one of the best tying threads . I'm very pleased with it and your products (Posted on 12/11/2024)Rating - Excellent thread and convenient Review by Per
I received a few bobbins with your thread, and I must say it is very thin—much thinner than Veevus 8/0 threads. I’m very impressed with this thread! I tied a few flies to test it out, and I really like the results. It’s super smooth and nice! (Posted on 11/6/2024)Rating - O ata super! Review by Tibi

Excellent thread. It seems more thinner than 8/0 but hey, you know better :) Excellent colors too :) (Posted on 10/17/2024)Rating - Impressive Review by Milan
The thread is good, it is thin and strong. It is twisted but not so much and I was able to split it very easy. I like it and your range of colors are what a tier needs. Keep up the good work. (Posted on 10/16/2024)Rating - Excellent thread Review by John
