Rite Bobbin Shorty

The Rite™ Bobbins are built by Merco Products, a small fly tool manufacturing company based in a small town in southwestern Montana but enjoying a worldwide reputation among fly tyers. Their mission has been, and continues to be, to provide the highest quality fly tools to their customers at a reasonable price. All bobbins are 100% crafted in the USA (proudly adding the “Made in Montana” lable) and use only top-quality materials. Through passion and expertise, Rite continues to create some of the finest fly tying bobbins available on the market. Once you have had the Rite™ Bobbin in your hand, you will never want to use another! 

Smaller flies require finer threads and sometimes smaller bobbins, this is where the Shorty comes into play to provide the same level of precision tension, along with a smaller sized barrel. This is the perfect tool for those little blue wing olives, midges, small parachutes, or any other pattern where a full-sized bobbin starts to impede your ability to see and/or tie.

Details:

• Approximately 3/4" shorter than the "Rite" Standard
• Great for tiny flies or smaller hands, but many tiers with large hands swear by this bobbin.
• Zirconia ceramic thread tube
• Small diameter barrel
• Removable vinyl grip
• Solid brass arm
• "Click" drag adjustment
• 1-9 ounces of thread tension
• Works also great with spooled wire
