Quick take
Yarn strike indicators that float higher and longer than plastic alternatives with easy rubber O-ring attachment.
This is a nine-piece set of yarn strike indicators in orange, red and green, with three sizes of each. They attach with a rubber O-ring, so there is no knot in the leader and you can slide the indicator up or down to change depth. Fly anglers use them to watch the drift when fishing nymphs or dry flies, and a dab of floatant keeps the yarn riding high.
