Lose the indicator and the slack line. Made all the difference for me.

With a tight line you can "hit" gently on each pause, rather than jerking a bunch of line out of the water and screwing up the rest of your drift.

You may have to wade a little more carefully so that you can wade closer to your targeted spot.

Shortening your total leader can help too. Don't be afraid to make the final tippet section longer and finer. Allows your bug to sink faster.

Also, add enough weight so that you are snagging the bottom quite often(relative) and then remove a split shot or two.

Welllll..., maybe keep one indicator, because they can come in handy for drifts that are longer and have a more consistant depth. Just don't let anyone see you doing it!

Takes awhile to adjust and then you will be amazed at your fish count going up.

IMNSHO...
