Rite Bobbin Review

So for a little of 6 months I have been tying using the Rite, standard bobbin. First time I have ever used a bobbin with a thread tension device. Other than the compression style of a normal bobbin. So here is my "down n dirty" review. First time really writing a review.

Plan and simple. 4 out of 5 stars. The adjustable tension, AWESOME. If you tie with smaller diameter threads 8/0 or less, you'll love this. I always have a tough time with mono tying thread. Works great, I've yet to break off. The style of the bobbin, its single arm forced me to keep my hands off the spool. It definitely took some time getting used to the feel of a new bobbin. The con of that single arm is sometimes I found the bobbin slipping out of my hand. Most likely due to my past experience of a 'normal' bobbin.

Another down fall, changing spools is a bit more time consuming. Not a huge issue for the recreational tier, more of an inconvenience. And at $20/each, alittle pricey to have 5+ laying around. Although after I looked at it, my regular brand bobbin is $12.50, so whats another $7.50!

Overall, you owe it to yourself to try this out. If you don't like it after purchasing, let me know. I'll offer $15 for it!! LOL
