Loon Outdoors Ergo Fly Tying Bobbin
A shaped, powder-coated grip with spring-steel spool support and tension you can vary with your hand.
Description
Consider this Loon if you want to change tension as you tie by altering pressure on the grip. The handle is shaped to rest between your thumb and fingers. Try comparing that hand position with the way you already hold your spool, especially if you keep the bobbin in hand for most of the fly.

Fit and buying advice
The tube length is intended to leave working room for larger patterns as well as small ones. If your priority is setting the spool resistance on a separate control and returning to it, compare a click-drag or disc-drag holder.
Questions about this tool
How do I change the tension as I wrap?
Loon describes applying or releasing pressure with your fingers. Try the change with your thread before using it on a finished section.
Is the grip color a functional distinction?
Choose according to the holder shape and how it controls the spool. A color choice by itself leaves those features the same.
Should I order a separate tube to fit a large pattern?
The included tube is the one Loon describes for varied pattern sizes. Compare your actual working clearance if you need a different reach.
