The last year or so I have been trying to use a one leader system consisting of a standard butt and a taper made out of hi viz mono like Stren Gold or Berkely Fl. Green. I then change the tip based on whether I'm fishing dries, wets, nymphs, or streamers. I use the Hi viz tapered section as a sighter not just for nymphing but alo for tiny dries and fishig wets upstream. My question is, do any of you think the close proximity of the sighter to the nearest fly is spooking any fish? When i fish wets, the first fly is only about two feet from the sighter. When I fish dries, the fly it might be as close as three feet from it.
