planettrout 0 Report post Posted December 11, 2011 Right at the moment, availability seems to be an issue... Lakeland, in the UK, will have those tying threads soon. http://www.lakelandflytying.com/132/gudebrod.aspx ' I used to purchase mine at Bob Marriott's here in LA. I will check with them the next time I am out there to see if they will be carrying those products again.I really hope so, they made colors one just can't find anywhere else...
