Drop your line size, in gin clear water 4# or less, when its murky you can go a little heavier, from there, play with your depth, try bottom bouncing, sometimes the float will spook them, also, watch the fish, it they look like they're sitting with their tails up, forget about it and move on, they won't move for anything, if they're sitting level, with their heads up or moving around in the pool, target those ones, they are actively feeding

I don't think its worth it to mess around with light leaders. On big water i'll use 8 or even 10lb lead even in clear conditions, out east I won't even go less than 6lb unless its 4lb drennan which is the same diameter as 6lb anyways.

4lb redwing fluoro has always been what I use on smaller tribs...works well with my set up if i'm targeting steels.

Now for a fly fisher like myself, is it worth it to try out indicator drifting methods in the pools, or should I stick with egg, woolly and streamer fishing (since nymphing is more of a spring method).

Crappie microtubes
+1 for these. They do wonders sometimes.

nymph works in winter. but yeah, nothing beats buggers & streamers on deep pools.

i'm no fly expert but I would think that you should be using an indicator with egg imitations.

Nymph with an indicator? Also is it possible to only use a single nymph with an indicator, I mostly see it with multiple nymphs tied on. The muddler minnow streamer has does wonders for me in the past!

not really big on nymphs myself. I don't fool around during winter...Too cold to try something out of the ordinary. I stick to woolies & intruders & glo bugs. I have a friend who does a combo of beaded nymph & nymph no indicator. I don't use indicator as well. I have pre rigged some flies. bead & fly, bead & glo bugs for creeks but for outlets & mouth, I go with clousers. works well on browns.

once the snow and cold hits; black stoneflies in 12's and 14's are deadly when the temp creeps on the plus side.
