Airlock Strike Indicators have long been one of the best floating indicators you can use with a fly rod. Recently, Airlock announced that they would be halting production of their plastic-bodied indicators and switching to a bio-degradable indicator that still uses the company’s innovative locking mechanism to attach the indicator to your leader.
