I never use strike indicators and fish nymphs about 95% of the time. One of my friends who fishes with me at times always uses a strike indicator and usually 2 droppers. We both catch our share of fish and we both enjoy our ways of fishing. My years of bass tournaments were spent fishing small leadhead jigs with curly tail grubs in 25 to 30 feet of water and I developed a good feel for bites plus constantly watching my line for any bites. I think that is why I usually fish nymphs and do very well with them without strike indicators. I have tried to use indicators and do not like them.
