I like the C&F bobbins and also use some Rite Adjustable bobbins.

I use the cheap ones I got for a pound alot, means I can have lots of threads ready to use, but I have a c and f bobbin which is fantastic for tying flies, Just make sure you keep the threader somewhere handy as its a special one for the bobbin
