無毒飛蠅線

Switched to this after worrying about the lead I'd been handling for years. It wraps tight around the hook shank and gets my nymphs down fast without any guilt.

I've been tying nymphs for years and this wire wraps tight without kinking or flaking, which was my main gripe with other options. Nice that it's non-toxic too, since I'm handling it for hours at the vise.

The non-toxic aspect is nice for peace of mind, but the wire is stiffer than I expected and kinks easily when wrapping small nymphs. It does sink well once tied in, though getting there takes a bit more patience than I'd like.
