At the risk of repeating myself...lose the indicator. And then keep at it.
If you are mildly successful WITH an an indicator, you will be wildly successful WITHOUT one. If done properly. It may take a guide to help you learn the method, and it may take a guide to help you identify which type of water to fish the method.
Not trying to jerk your chain or be an a$$hoe...
You stated "Perhaps the most succesful for me has been using an indicator with a 90 degree drop, split shot, nymph, tailing nymph." I assumed that meant indicator nymphing is your preferred, and thus your most common method of nymphing, particularly since you are successful at it.
Maybe it was an assumption I shouldn't have made. Sorry.
It does take some water time and various trial-and-error leader/terminal tackle combinations to get it right. A guide can certainly help you there too.
Sometimes it is difficult to keep at it because it does take awhile to learn, and if not done properly, it is a WORSE way to try and catch fish.
I would like to think I was a successful(it's all relative) bobicator. After I dropped the bobicator...EUREKA!! My #s went thru the roof.
Anyway...just trying to help(and save you a guide fee), not stir the pot.
