Good morning, I've been using size A rod thread for a filler on some of the jigs so the hair lays good and Danvilles flat waxed nylon as it lays nice,is easy to work with and it flattens out on the tie so as it hold the hairs where you want them. i used to commercially tie saltwater flies till Umpqua took over the market LOL. I use Duro super glue instead of head cement as it holds better and theres much less waste with the small tubes compared to Zap a Gap. The bottom of the bottle always hardens up before I get to it no matter how much I tie . Hope this helps . Ron
