Gudebrod #330 NCP was the perfect match but I don't think they make it any longer. You can probably locate someone that has a spool, however.

FishHawk #638 NCP might be the same color but on that one I'm just going by the color charts.

Pacific Bay in Sky Blue NCP should be very close as well.

Jeff,

Check out the FishHawk SP3 Light Blue/Silver Variegated metallic. It will be a great thread to consider for the "Tarheels Rod"! Go Heels!

The Gudebrod #230 is a match. How much and what size do you need?

I read the number wrong - Chuck's number is correct, just be sure to get the NCP version if you want a perfect match.
