The Troutline Crystal Body Thread, like diamond thread, shines in creating bodies for various fly sizes and types. From nymphs and Perdigons to buzzers, wet flies, and even dry flies, it works effortlessly on small hooks as small as size #18. Its versatility goes beyond bodies, allowing you to craft hotspots on nymphs, eggs for adult sedges or mayflies, and even hots-pots, bodies, or ribbing for wet flies and spiders. The possibilities are endless, limited only by your imagination and creativity.
