Nymph rig
#3
Yup, those are pretty much the standard rig: small fly on the end, a foot or so of tippet tied to a second nymph (usually a bit larger size), then a split shot or two and finally an indicator higher up. Set the indicator at twice the water depth. (i.e. in three feet of water, set the indicator six feet above the top fly.)

The "Provo bouncer" kinda turns that upside down and uses the split shot on the very end (tie an overhand knot to keep it from sliding off the line when you cast) then a fly, then a short tippet section and the top fly. Some say this casts a lot better with less tangling, and if the shot snags you can pull it off without losing either fly. It works.
