This traditional rod wrapping silk thread is the larger diameter cousin of Gossamer silk thread used for fly tying and traditional rod building. It is equivalent to a 4/0 thread compared to Gossamer's 6/0 size, so it covers with fewer winds and gives a little more texture to the wrap. The colors are a great compliment to bamboo rods, for either restoration or a new rod in the traditional style. Jasper color is variegated black and orange, but the orange looks like camel brown. Most colors come 50 yds. on a spool, with a few 45 yds. to the spool.
