One of the ideas of using a threader is that you have the flies on threaders before you leave the house. If you put mutliple flies on one threader it does not take up as much space as each fly having its own threader would.
Then on the stream you put your tippet through the large loop of the threader. While holding the top fly in your hand you use the other hand to pull the loop end of the threader with the tippet through the eye of the hook. Whallaa, you have the tippet pulled through the eye of the hook without needing bright light, 4.5 ft arms, and no cussing.
