Current slide {CURRENT_SLIDE} of {TOTAL_SLIDES}- Best Selling in Fly Tying Vices, Tools
Although expensive (relative to average bobbins) I bought 2 being impressed with the tension adjustment (I bought a standard ceramic bobbin and was seriously impressed) for tying/spinning deer hair flies and heavier thread for bass/saltwater patterns. The half-hitch feature is also nice to have also. Very well built and anticipate years of service. I have recommended to fly fishing acquaintances that also tie.

The Rite bobbin adjusts the tension well. However it is hard to get the little adjuster turned. Once adjusted they work great and are very comfortable to hold. The O-rings hold the thread when not in use. I have two of these at this time and just ordered a Stonfo which seems to have a larger adjusting knob. Looking forward to comparing the Rite with the Stonfo.

Yes this is well worth the money spent for a piece of fly tying tools you need .. Great feature for doing half hitchs...quick & easy....Love it..

This bobbin is the great quality that you come to expect from Rite. The difference is the enlarged thread holder which can fit over most eyes and allow a half hitch finish or whip finish without having to use a separate tool.
