What Type of Thread Do You Use???

Hey everyone,
I was wondering what type of thread you use for different applications. I use flat waxed nylon for my jigs and pike flies, and sometimes I use waxed monocord.

What do ou use for different applications?

I'm starting to like monocord more than flat waxed.

Re: What Type of Thread Do You Use???

I get my threads from all over the place. But I use a lot of Unithread, Orvis, waxed, unwaxed, 0-6. I use rod wrap thread for heavy work like jigs.
