I have never had much luck tying or swinging a dropper off the back of
another fly, fairly common, I just suck at it. When I fish a dropper I leave
a decent tag end off the eye of the top fly and tie the "dropper" off of
that tag end, or I tie in tippet with a blood knot and leave a long tag end
and tie the submerged fly there.


A dropper is great for snagging the fish when you miss the strike on the
dry. :-)
