These hard foam strike indicators have a classic round shape and come in high visibility fluorescent colors. They are easy to use and will not kink your leader like some strike indicators can. Lightning Strike Ball Indicators are easy to move up and down the leader giving anglers options all day long. They won’t come off, there is no way for that to happen. The FL Orange and FL Yellow strike indicators are color fast so they won’t fade quickly. Pegs are included.
The only downside to this strike indicator is, it must be slipped onto the leader before the fly is tied on. And, if you want to remove the strike indicator, the fly must be removed first. But, if you are planning to do a lot of indicator fishing, all day, this is a good choice for you.
INSTRUCTIONS: Thread tippet through hole in indicator. Position indicator on leader where you want it. Insert peg into hole to secure leader.
Everything has a disadvantage. Sometimes, using a strike indicator with a peg can lead to a tangle. The peg can catch your leader. We have used this system many times with great success. But, that tangle problem still exists occasionally.
