hahaha I've been there too many times as well. When that is happening I have found using a large caddis or even a hopper as an indicator with a small emerger 12-18 inches hanging off that back seems to work. Often if I use the emerger fly on its own, I have trouble seeing it and miss takes. This way I know roughly where in the river it is based off the large dry fly.
