Welcome to the forum and area, there's a lot of good water on the Sandy. Best advice I could give would just be to get out there and familiarize yourself with sections of the river. Learn the layout and where the fish would hold. That's something I'm still working on myself but it's much easier to learn with the help of someone who knows the river better. Looks like you're using a baitcaster reel, the only thing I know about using one of those is that I could make a pretty sweet bird's nest really fast. Good luck out there and hope you land some fish.
