Hi Chuck
I needed a specific brand,size and colour as I had already used up the first
100yd spool and neededanother to finish the rod. Since I started with a certain
red numbered colourby Gudebrod, I had to get some of the same size, brand and
colour. Gudebrod closeddown around 8 years or so ago Due to the scarcity of
this puduct, I only found2 sellers with the colour/size that I wanted. They
were offering old stock andone of them was so old that the spools in question
were wooden. The thickersizes were available in limited quantity but not the
“A” that I needed. The rodthat I was restoring for a friend is a 1938 Hardy
Gold Medal - 4 piecesincluding 2 tips and intermediate wraps every inch or so.
By the time I hadfinished there were 171 thread wraps including the splint end
ferrules andguides.

Subject: Re: [VFB] VFB & Gudebrod Hi Chuck: Thanks for the offer, but it is
the rod wrapping thread in size A that I wanted and I have now got it albeit at
a steep price. I did buy a fairly large amount of Gudebrod fly tying thread on
ebay after they went out of business in primarily 8/0 and 10/0 with some 6/0
and 3/0 in limited colours. Thanks again but I am well stocked in fly tying
threads. Neville (Nev) Gosling On Nov 13, 2019, at 10:09 AM, Chuck

Guderbrod thread?? Let me know as I have a lot of it, but I mostly use Danville
Fly master plus these days. I have about 15 spools of Guderbrod I’lll give you
a good deal on (FREE LOL) if you email me at [email protected]
with your address. I even have a new spool of that Guderbrod scarlet color in
3/0. The other color range from black to white and every color in between. Some
are on reg sized spools, while others are on the wide skinny spools and in 3/0,
6,0, and 8/0 in size. I can do that as I have enough thread to last two
lifetimes, but like I said, I have gotten used to the Danville’s. Chuck From:

Hi Nev,
so true, the list has slowed down a lot.
However, it is also our responsibility to revive it a bit.
My fishing was slow this year for known reasons. One of my grandkids took me
out for fishing. Well, this 4 year old asked my a couple of time, if we
shouldn't go out and catch some fish. That's more precise. He is now eager to
ty some flies with me.
Tying season is ahead of us, so I'll intend to stock my boxes with my hoppers,
the blue (parachute) beetle and some EHCs.
However, I'm wondering if I shouldn't add something new to my arsenal. For
trout. Suggestions?

No wonder this site is not getting much traffic. I just did a search for "The
Virtual Flybox” and every virtual or non-vitual flbox is there except VFB.
There is a virtual flybox in Colorado with the same name but nary a word about
us. Maybe I should have searched for "Byard Miller’s Virtual Flybox".
Unfortunantly, since Byard lost interest in maintianing the site, we seem to
have slipped to the bottom of the list or even right off! It it little wonder
that we get little interest from newcomers. It really is a shame. Changing the
subject, does anyone know or remember when thread maker Gudebrod went out of
business after losing a conract to supply dental floss which it seems was
keeping the company going. I lose track of time but it must have at least 5 or
more years ago. I recently restored a Hardy split-cane rod and used a new spool
of red Gudebrod thread that I had but I ran out before finishing the rod and
had to pay a small fortune for 2x100 yard spools of scarlet thread to finish
the job and repace what I had used. Neville (Nev) GoslingGreater VancouverBC
