I do have to chuckle, however, over the idea that 15 seconds is a long time.
Historically, the general instructions for working a popper or other surface bug were to let it sit for a full minute before twitching it again.
That's the sort of thing that sounds good in print. But if anybody has every sat there waiting a full minute before moving a fly they've got a lot more patience than anyone I know.
15 seconds is generally plenty of time, IMO.
