I haven't really fished warmer mixed-species rivers like this, so curious how others approach it.

Hasnt been an issue for me personally, although I usually just run a 5 foot section of 12lb mono from my tip to the fly. Havent had any lost pike yet, but I think I have just been lucky. I have lost a lot of flies to rocks/logs.
