  • Thinner and stronger than Fireline or Wildfire
  • 3 Colors: Black, white (crystal), green
  • Reduced Plastic Waste: DragonThread is packaged on smaller spools to be more eco-friendly, reducing plastic waste by 65%!
  • Fuseable & Burnable just like other braided & fused polyethylene threads.
  • Lower Pricepoint: Significantlly lower costs per meter compared to Fireline or Wildfire. .005" is comparable to (and slightly thinner than) Fireline 4lb test .006" is comparable to (and slightly thinner than) Fireline 6lb test

    They make it easy to order, have comparable prices, and many choices including beads not found in other stores. Also love the designs and the fact there is a pattern for each.

    Products are easy to find on the website. Large selection of beads and good sales. I have had some log in issues. I have also had issues with bead quality. Some aren’t drilled all the way and the color flaked off of lined beads.
