I like the football types with the slit in them. You put the line in the slit then close if off with a piece of rubber tubing. They don't kink your line, are easy to move or remove, and float really well. Occasionally they will fly off, but two or three indicators will generally get me through three 14-hour days of steelheading. Probably not the best option for really small flies/tippet, they are less delicate in presentation, but they are money on deep/fast water.

I've recently discovered the joys of small water nymphing. I've used big attractor flies as strike indicators with some success, but it can be a pain tying 5x tippet onto a hook shank. Sometimes I know there's no real chance of getting a surface strike and so I've started using strike indicators instead. My first experiment has been with foam adhesive indicators. They work very well, but they're one-time use. What are your preferences for strike indicators? What removable strike indicators would you recommend?
