mb82 0 Report post Posted February 13, 2006 What size thread are you using? Sounds like your thread is too thin. Personally I won't stack hair with anything except flatwaxed only because I can't break the stuff. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
deeky 0 Report post Posted February 13, 2006 First, make sure you are using hair that will flare (my first mistake). Bucktail will not flare. You need the hollow body hair, belly is the best. I use either Flymaster Plus (something like a 3/0 or 2/0 thread) or kevlar thread (impossible to break by pulling). Just make sure you don't pull too hard, particularly with the kevlar. You will end up cutting the hair and it will fall out. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
