Re: [VFB] Sparrow
Henk already addressed your question. Most tying threads split readily. A notable exception is Uni-thread, which is 'bonded' thread - a resin is incorporated with the filaments, essentially glueing them together into a 'round' thread. The bond can be broken, with nail-edge pressure for example, but certainly is not the easiest thread which comes to mind when planning to do split thread techniques ;-) My staple thread is Benecchi 12/0 (also available in 6/0, 8/0, and 10/0) - I find it consistent, quite strong. and it twists and untwists/flattens - key characteristics for doing split thread - very easily.

Re: [VFB] Sparrow
I have some Gudebrod 8/0 and 10/0 and I am building up my nerve to try splitting them. If I can do it , anyone can. Thank You, Alan Di Somma From: Henk Verhaar Sent: Friday, May 31, 2013 1:45 AM To: vfb-mail@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: [VFB] Sparrow I'm not Hans, but I have been known to split hairs, errr thread too. Not all flies require split-thread (dubbing techniques). Split-thread dubbing is an alternative to dubbing-loop techniques that can offer superior results wherever it is a viable alternative. My prime example is the split thread dubbing-and-CDC-fibers (clamp transfer technique) caddis pattern popularized (and possibly invented - I haven't researched that) by Marc Petitjean. All non-monofilament threads can be split, some easier than others. In general, non-twisted non-bonded threads are easier to split than bonded, twisted, or bonded-twisted threads. Danville flymaster e.g. is very easy, Gudebrod 6/0 and 8/0 (currently only available as Orvis thread?) are easy, UNI threads need to be untwisted and 'unbonded' and take significantly more effort. My personal favourite if I want to tie with split-thread techniques are the Gudebrod threads, for ease of splitting coupled with overall quality.

Re: [VFB] Sparrow
Hans: I just wanted to thank you again for sending me the link for the Sparrow. I tied up a bunch of them for a friend in three colors. He was ecstatic and could not wait to try them. He had caught quite a few trout on the pattern last year but could find any to buy. He is gone for several days this week and plans to use them. I will post a is hing report next week but I just wanted to thank you. As a side benefit, I learned how to split the thread in order to dub. Sent from my iPad Thank You, Alan Di Somma Phoenix, AZ.

Re: [VFB] Sparrow
Alan, In case Hans isn't awake at 3:33 a.m.: Hans has two versions on his website. The one tiied by John Ridderbos, is Jack Gartside's original recipe: http://www.danica.com/flytier/jridderbos/sparrow.htm The other one, tied byTim Didas, has a bushier (marabou) tail. http://www.danica.com/flytier/tdidas/sparrow.htm FINALLY, the original recipe and step-wise instructions are on the originator's website, Jack Gartside (I miss that crazy guy): http://www.jackgartside.com/step_gartside_sparrow.htm I don't know who is keeping Jack's website up now that Jack has sailed off to his eternal fishing hole, but whoever it is should be thanked. Lots of good info there. Hope this helps. Allan On 4/14/13 9:19 PM, Alan Di Somma wrote: Hans, If you are out there, I would like to tie up some of your Sparrow's.
