Late to the party here, but for any nymph above the bottom foot of water column, I actually really like those little press-on Palsa things in white. A guide on the White River in Arkansas turned me on to those about 10 years ago, using a half of one to suspend a zebra midge without spooking the fish, and I've used them almost exclusively since, at least in small/flat water. For bigger/choppy streams or really deep/heavy rigs, those barrel ones with the rubber tubing were my standard. I have a pack of the yarn type i'm going to try soon as well, but when it's flat/still/small, still using the stick-ons.

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?
