Tiemco TMC Ceramic Heavy Duty Bent Bobbin
The original Heavy Duty ceramic holder with a bent arm and black wide-bore zirconia tube.
Description
Use the bent Heavy Duty model when the thread is substantial and you prefer the angle this arm gives your hand. Tiemco points to hair flies, streamers and saltwater patterns for this black, larger-bore tube. Compare the spool position with your usual grip if a straight-arm holder puts it in the way.

Questions about this tool
How do I choose between bent and straight arms?
Compare where the spool sits relative to your fingers and the hook. Choose the shape that gives you room in your usual working position.
Does the black tube identify a different size?
In Tiemco's original Ceramic Bobbin range, black denotes the wider Heavy Duty tube. Compare the series as well as the tube color.
Is the wider tube intended only for saltwater flies?
Tiemco also lists hair flies and streamers. Choose according to the tying thread and pattern rather than where you fish.
