Personally, I love to fish nymphs without indicators. To me, being able to see my line move and respond accordingly and dancing a trout from a hole has a certain mystique about it.

What's yours?

I currently indicator nymph. I am in the process of teaching my self to nymph without the indicator and attempting to become proficient with dries as well.

I have spent most of my money on fly fishing and beer. The rest I just wasted.

I fish all of the methods shown-but my favorite is downstream wets. Trying to figure out all of the varying current speeds and how it will effect your fly delivery is all part of the fun (and I still have a ways to go yet). Pretty dang satisfying when you figure it out just right.

I chose nymphing with an indicator as well. It is the technique I am the most "proficient" with so it gets my vote. I am getting better a dry fly fishing, and while still refining and learning, it is by far my favorite.

It's a toss up between streamers at night and small dries with a small#20-24 midge dropper. Both ways really improve your skills. Is it the weekend yet? :D

The gods do not deduct from man's allotted span the hours spent in fishing.

How do you "like to fish" or "which method do you fish most often"? I like to fish dry flies upstream every chance I catch a rise or a situation that warrants the fly. For the majority of the time, it is nymphing under an indicator. Then there is streamers or wet flies.

I always enjoy the strike on the top the most.

I enjoy the strike of a swung fly. Just let it drift and then feel the hit. Wakes you up.

There's a fine line between fishing and sitting there looking stupid.

Dries upstream in fast water makes for an exciting bite, not to mention sight fishing for risers. Nymphing with an indicator and streamers for the aggressive impulse bite.

If fishing was easy it would be called catching.

Nothing gets the blood pumping and the hands shaking like watching a nice brown chase a streamer halfway across a pool only to swipe at it twice and have the guy with the rod in his hand pull it away from him cause he got too excited. Anyway that's how it usually works for me , gotta love that streamer fishing......Jeff
