Default Dries for droppers

The most popular way by far in New Zealand is simply to tie the dropper
directly to the bend of the dry fly.

I prefer tieing the dropper through the eye of the dry fly. I will

sometimes
tie it to the hook of the dry fly, but only if the eye of the dry fly is
clogged.

dropper loop or something else

tangle?
