Oros Indicators in Bulk

I dig Oros indicators for those times when I'm fishing a fly less than a rod length below the indicator. If I'm fishing deeper than that rod length, I use the best darn indicator ever constructed. They're indestructible. They're HIGHLY visible. They work well. @Shawn Seeger's: The SeegerCator™, made in Washington State.
 
This all boils down to one thing. TIppet size. Lighter get more bites but also get broken off in the weeds now and then. Go heavier and get less bites. Sure I could rerig when I change depths so that the indicator is always in a heavier section. But I'd rather spend more time fishing.
I've really never had an issue in the catching department with my setup, which is super quick and easy to change depths (zero re-rigging required). The only break offs may occur on the terminal end, not the section where the bobber is connected. The way I see it, the less break offs I have, the less time I spend re-rigging, the more I'm actually fishing, not to mention less plastic bobbers littering the river. To each their own. Not gonna sit here and argue which way is better....keep on doin what your doin since it sounds like it sorta works for ya!

The time I can break off an indicator is when fishing a lake at depth. No issue. But then a hatch starts in shallow and the fish are feeding shallower than the length of tippet. So I can rerig or just move my indicator onto the tippet. That is when I can break one off. AFWIW oros indicators are pretty biodegradable.
 
Oh that's right. I'd almost forgotten what your original question was as I veered off on my tangent. Everyone benefits from going fishing!
 
If color is the issue why not just use the Airlock ones?

Ok I'll confess. I don't know anything about stillwater fishing.
I haven't been doing it for 50 years.
I don't do it over 40 times a year.
I don't catch any fish when I do fish a stillwater.
I don't catch any decent fish when I do manage to catch a fish.
I didn't catch the biggest trout the long time manager of The H ever personally weighed.

Man this is fun.....lol......
 
Did someone say Boobers?
