I prefer to use leader rings. This simplifies a lot of things. These
are small metal rings which may be incorporated into a leader, and
used to attach droppers, or tippet. They are much easier to tie knots
to, and also make replacing flies etc easier and less wasteful. If
you want any more info on this, where to obtain them etc, just reply.

Scroll down about two-thirds of the way down the page. Three
sizes, $8.95 for a pack of 10.

I don't use them or recommend them, but apparently a lot of
people like them.
