I shared this article because it is very applicable to the Snake River.The longer leader, light tippet, dry flies and tungsten wet flies are all great tips. Too often I see anglers walk up to the tail or side of the pool which invariably spooks the trout. Trout have 6 otoliths and can sense you even while walking on a ridge above the pool. The 2-3 rod lengths is great advice. I use a few foam grasshopper patterns I know the trout like. The plop of the flies is like the plop of a real grasshopper so it may or not spook the fish. But if the trout is feeding,more than likely it will hit the dropper dry. I do not use bobbers in general during low water, but I have been known to use small clear “thingamabobbers” in certain situations.
