I don't use strike indicators that much since I tightline nymph in most situations or use a dry dropper.

But in situations when an indy is needed, a New Zealand strike indicator system works very well.

It's easy to adjust for depth while a dry dropper rig is not. Plus the NZ rig and it can be left bulky for visibility at distance and/or in rough water situations or it trimmed down to be unobtrusive for low and clear water conditions on the stream.

Nice Afish. I put off watching this a whole day because I didn’t think I needed another bobber system. I stand corrected. This would be perfect for mid-late Somer lily pad fishing. Too often I don’t see what I’m after until I cast. When my Indicator hits the water I see all the smart ones skidaddle. This appears to land lightly and may be helpful in landing a Prince or other nymph in their midst without scaring them off.
Keep feeding us!
