The Sensei will also tell you to place the indicator wherever it needs to be (but not on the fly line) to get your fly/flies down just above the bottom. So, how do you know precisely where THAT is? You keep adjusting it until you indicator tells you that your fly/flies are dragging the bottom. Then, move the indicator down a couple inches. Now you should be really close to where you want to be. Naturally, you have to keep adjusting the indicator as you move from spot to spot as water speed and depth change.
Thanks Bill and Tim! I do like the idea of tying a small (tiny) fly on a “larger” hook, especially since that “larger” hook would have a bigger gap than the tiny hook. BUT…won’t the size of the larger hook (even if tied with a smaller fly) be perceived by the trout as a larger offering? I don’t know what fish actually see, but won’t they include the size of the hook when they are considering taking the fly? Just asking…I don’t have enough experience to draw on for this quandary.
