Can't go wrong with a floating line, man. The Fish Gods invented split shot for a reason, so if you're having trouble getting it deeper into the zone, just stick a few SS on there and viola. Once you start tying your own flies, you can weight the living piss out of them with lead and tungsten heads. I almost always use a floating line, unless I know I'm going to be going deep for Mac's or Walleye.
I fly fished from my boat on the Berry last week and had a lot of success anchoring in 40 feet of water and just casting all around me. The water was calm, so I could see fish rising near by, but I also caught plenty that I didn't see, but would come up and smack it on the retrieve. Fly fishing from a boat is great fun.
