Simon Gawesworth demonstrates four different methods to tie a dropper rig. These methods include a surgeon knot, tippet ring, "New Zealand" dropper and swiveling dropper. In addition to these methods Simon identifies some key points that will increase the effectiveness of your dropper rig.
A convenient way to tie a dropper rig is to employ a RIO Tippet Ring. Tie one of these small rings to the end of your leader and tie your point fly and dropper fly leads from the tippet ring. A great feature of the tippet ring it can increase the life of your main leader. Tippet rings come in small trout sizes as well as large steelhead sizes.
