    I'm looking to make nymphing indicators for fly fishing! I find the shop bought indicators aren't very bright and fade quite easily.

    I have tried many different indicators for French/Czech nymphing but one of my favourites to use is the drop beads indicator which is basically a piece of high vis mono with uv resin beads, they are quite visible & very sensitive, they're fairly expensive (around €8) for what they are but you can make your own.

    Yeah I used to use them but they're banned in FIPS Mouche competitions now and I like to keep all my rigs comp legal.
