Gudebro Twist 0207 Yellow/Black size A

'Morning all.

I'm organizing for a pair of 4wts on some CTS blanks in FERN GREEN and am looking over thread options. I did a Sage blank years ago using Gudebrod 0207 or 001-207 which was black and yellow twist but am not confident that the remnant of the spool will do 2 rods. (the tyranny of 100yd spools). The yellow had the effect of going invisible so the black/white is an option I suppose.

So two questions -

First - does anyone have any old stock Gudebrod or can point me in the right direction? Other than size C/Trimar, I'm not finding any through a google search.

Second - does anyone have an opinion on how the ProWrap tiger thread compares to the old Gudebrod classic Twist? Or prefer another brand?

Many thanks. I suppose that was really 2.5 questions.

David

Can't say how the colors compare. But the prowrap handled no different than the gudebrod twists for me. Actually the only prowrap that I like and will use.
