I think you did it the right way. I agree with you that if you are fishing virgin water you will know fairly quickly if fish are there or not. Usually in the first few casts you will have a hit or it will be a no go. No need to cast for 30 minutes in a location if you haven't felt a fish this time of year. Mobility is the key to the game in the Fall for sure. It is a little different in the Spring.
I think there are still decent amounts of fish in the Wilderness and Riggins area. A few guys I have talked to have said their best fishing in the Riggins area has been this past week. The fish will be fairly spread out, but I believe if you work at it and fish hard you will be rewarded for it. I'm hoping to get another shot at it before the river ices and I decide to crack the auger out and hit trout until February.
