It may also be a matter of the fish changing locations or changing their behavior. Make sure you're using the proper weight to get down to the bottom. That being said, with the brown trout spawn starting up you can find both browns and cutts up in shallower runs at times as well. The browns are spawning, and the cutts holding back eating the eggs.
Stonefly nymphs are always a good choice as they have a two year life cycle and are always in the stream. Also blue wing olives are hatching out quite frequently, and October caddis can be found this time of year. I have also found that brighter colors mixed into your nymphs can be really good now. Purple, orange, and green have all been working well for me.
With the brown trout spawn starting up, egg imitations can also be good. Streamers are another option for those aggressive browns.
