What is the best place to add weight?

[spoondog]

So i am new to fly fishing. I go out at least once a week and always catch 1 or 2. my question is when im nymphing with 2 flys i usually fish with 1 or 2 B size slit shot weights depending on depth and current. I put them about 8-12 inches above my top fly. Is this the best way to do it or should i add extra tippet below my bottom fly so it drags? Is that enough weight to get down in those deep holes where the fish are?

I think this is my biggest problem in not catching as many fish. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks

Also looking to hit up the middle weber by rockport this afternoon if anyone would like to join in. Probably going around 2 till dark.

Thanks again, Stephen
