I believe that Fish Hawk has purchased all that stock and machinery. If Robert doesn't have what you're after give Robbie at Fish Hawk a shout and perhaps he can steer you to some.

Angler's Workshop has "reintroduced" their own line of threads. My understanding is that it is the Rice thread that was left from closing - purchased and stored for these years. They do have D size Rainbow Metallic listed. Last time I asked, it hadn't arrived yet ... but call and see.

We have a bunch in our thread box. Please email me and we'll work something out.

FishHawk did indeed buy Rice and as far as I know Robbie doesn't intend to produce it anymore.

Please let me know what you need and we'll tell you waht we've got and see if there's somewhere in the middle we can help you out.

I understand that it is Rice thread. I have had some ordered for some months now and have yet to see the first spool. I have emailed Angler's Workshop several times and for a while got an answer but now nothing. Disappointed to say the least. You should not advertise a product if you do not have it to sell and ship.

I even offered to purchase some additional products to help on shipping, my nickel, but that did not work.

Since posting my previous response I have received 6 of the 8 spools ordered from Angler's Workshop of their house brand thread.
