Just got back from a day of banking small water.With small water I don't waste much time.I fish the hole.covering the water to the point that I am convinced I have put my Presentation in front of any fish that might be in the hole.If the fish aren't interested then I think it is better to move on.This paid off today,after three holes I ran into a bunch of fresh fish ready to play!
On biggger water like the lower Sol Duc I will camp out a little more,depending on the water conditions.If the water is coming down and is real fishy I will spend a good part of a day on one hole.If the water is down,then I tend to follow my small water ideas.
I don't fish hatchery stack up points so I have no advise but figure that it is probably worth spending some time working the fish. smile
