Veevus 12/0 Thread

Anybody ever use this stuff? I just bought two spools in black. I know it's made in Denmark. Thought it would be a good thread to tie tricos and midges with. Any opinions?

great thread. strong for its size and lays flat

its becoming my first choice instead of uni

Care to elaborate on your answer? Why do you feel it is "garbage"? Thanks.

I use the thin stuff for my dries, it lies nice and doesn't bulk.

I have it in size 10, in white, and size 14, in dun.
I really like it for tying my small flies.

Comes in smaller diameters than uni and is much stronger. Better for tying sparse flies imho.

I tie my small flies with mono
