[quote flygoddess]You really don't want more than 3' of mono or fluoro from your fly line to the indicator. Does that make sense?
You have a 30' leader, you want to set the indicator anywhere from 27' to 29'..but no more that 27' because them you will get the belly between the fly line and the indicator.
I also like the bigger slip-dicators because you can see them on choppy water better, and choppy water is great for deep nymphing.
It can be done on glass smooth, but you will have to twitch once in awhile.[/quote]
Yeah that makes sense 'cause the mono sinks.
My old eyes will appeciate bigger indicators I'm sure. I like the multi - fly rig you mentioned, that makes a lot of sense and a double now & again wouldn't hurt!
