I've flied for eyes a few times now. When Phil and I were out at Lac St.Anne, had more than a few guys start asking us about how we were catching them on flies as we were out fishing them. Trick is to watch your line as you're retrieving looking for subtle takes, sometimes just the fly line straightens but you don't feel anything. other times we just had a hunch. Either way, set the hook. Large wooly buggers and Popsicle leeches work well stripped up a drop off.
