Euro nymphing above Steelhead falls. Will it work?

This was my first time at steelhead falls and I wanted to try euro nymphing on the Deschutes river. I am using a 9ft 5wt Orvis rod (good beginner rod) with 12 lb Amnesia line as a leader attached to my regular weight forward fly line (mostly wound on the reel). Then about 3-4 ft of 0x sighter line followed by a 4-5 ft of 5x tippet. I used a #16 frenchie with a tungsten bead.
