I have fished without an indicator. Usually a long leader, 10ft plus, long cast let it set without moving for two or three minutes, a very, very slow retrieve. Sometimes it works great. Sometimes it doesn't work at all.

This is the list of fly fishing only lakes in Washington.

Many lakes and streams are Selective Fishery Status which is different from fly fishing only. Some feel that Selective Fishery is the same as Fly fishing only, because it seems that most of those who fish select fisheries are fly fishermen. On select fishery lakes you can use an attached weight on your line to get the fly down but on fly fishing only lakes you can't.
