Where can you get those type of yarns at?

[Brookie]

you have some good colors for indicators there, Alain! How does it brush out?

Please tell Carol you heard about her business from Trout Predator Online. Carol's Rugs provides an excellent product, fast shipping and reasonable cost. I think I bought about 40 yards here. This is the same cord I used in the Yarn Strike Indicator video, it brushes out beautifully, making the best indicator you have ever seen. Carol's Rugs accepts PayPal, so it's super easy.

Tight lines to the TPO forum community! Yarn indicators rule.

OOh, Do I see"glow in the dark" in there?

Yarn does rule but make sure it is synthetic. I like Widows Web for my home made indicators. Regular yarn sinks and doesn't have a long float life.

Opie, have you had bad results with Bonnie Braid? Any preference for the floatant that you treat your indys with? I seem to remember you posting about solving a sinking problem you had but I thought it was due to an O ring issue.

Thanks.

oh man, thanks for the link. i've been looking for this stuff for a while.

I certainly haven't tried them all, but this yarn is terrific for indicators. It floats really high, holds floatant well and makes a super sensitive indicator. It is all-synthetic 6mm polypropylene braided cord.

And yes, it is available in glow-in-the-dark.
