RYLAC, JimmyD I use large indicators (sometimes 2) when I fish deep with large nymphs and streamers (under right conditions). They'll drag flies under.
But I did try fly indicators. Didn't work. They wanted a hot-pink yarn-puff dry fly. So I have a few of these tied for the next trip- size 10 hooks in them. Just in case...

If by "fly" you mean a dropper, just use a dry fly for the indicator. Surely you don't use a piece of red/orange yarn tied above the nymph. :-P JD DonO wrote: "Dang!
