Has anybody been able to order a Thebault fly line recently? I am having a hard time finding a dealer that still stocks them. Please PM contact details if you have them.

Thanks,

-John

Already tried Larry he isn’t selling them anymore - in fact he’s not selling any silk lines.

If anybody has first hand experience with obtaining one of these lines in past few months would appreciate it.

I emailed Olaf Borge and haven’t heard back.

I believe Olaf passed away several years ago.
I had a friend who contacted Thebault directly last year and bought from him.

I don't know of any US dealers of Thebualt, you might try contacting him directly and see or if there are none, direct from him. Link: http://www.jpthebault.com/jpth-gb-index.htm

I tried contacting the manufacturer directly and they have not replied.

I will try them again.

I just got the info that Thebault fly lines are no longer made. He sold his business to Laurent Torremonell. That explains what is going on.

Hello,
I'm Olaf Borge's niece, we have what remains of his fly fishing collection...including a large quantity of Thebault lines still in boxes. If you're interested, let us know?
thanks,
Christine
