I normally use a 9'-12' tapered leader because I like the way they cast although 8 lb. vanish flourocarbon is much cheaper in the end and I have used that as well. Generally I adjust my indicator to the depth of the river and normally use 1-2 size AB splitshot depending on water velocity. Favorite flies are golden stons, olive fox's pupas, hogans S&M, october caddis, burlap, herneator's,blue copper johns, and princes. My top fly is usually tied to 3X and my dropper 4X. GOOD LUCK!
PS I might be fishing that morning....
