What Hends fly tying thread is used for

Hends fly tying thread is designed for tying all types of flies and provides controlled tension when securing materials such as feathers, dubbing, wires or synthetics. It is used for building bodies, forming colored heads and binding elements in nymphs, dry flies, wet flies, streamers and other patterns.

Construction, properties and types of Hends fly tying thread

Hends threads are available in multiple thicknesses and fiber types, allowing the tier to match the thread to the hook size and fly style. High-strength options such as NanoThread allow tightening synthetic materials, hair or quills without breaking, while maintaining a smooth, even profile on the hook shank.

Variants of Hends fly tying thread and their applications

Thin threads like Synton or NanoThread 20D/30D are suitable for delicate dry flies and small nymphs, while thicker options such as Body Thread enable quick shaping of nymph bodies or creating a pronounced form. Proper thread selection improves durability, proportions and the final appearance of the fly.
