Folks.I have just been looking thru eBay-Feathercraft-KStockard-The Fly
Shop- and any other places looking for a specific bobbin.
The name escapes me, but it is something like Liecht and it is a very
expensive automatic bobbin. Has any one ever tied with one or knows anything
about it?
Alan,
The bobbin I have switched to several years ago is the Rite Bobbin,
and may not be the one you are looking for but.
I enjoy placing a regular sized spool on it and not having to cobble
fill from an odd sized one. the two big things I enjoy are the ceramic tip
(I sometimes get a bit heavy

I sell the Rite bobbin at Bass Pro but have not tied with one.
I used to have a Norvise with the automatic bobbins but never was able to
adjust it properly.
The one I was asking about is supposed to be easier to use.

Alan,
This should give you what you need: http://www.automaticbobbin.com/
I have one. It has its good and weak points. Nicely made, it works as

Alan,
Try it, you will like it far better than any auto bobbin.
I tried to tie with the Erich bobbin and found it not good for my usage.
