Hi, I was reading about using a nymph attached to a dry fly as a dropper
fly. I've read of other 2 fly combos also. How do you keep the two from
wrapping around each other when casting and making a real big knot?

The combos are limitless, but if the dry fly is something that floats like
a cork, you'll have an easier time.

As to casting, just minimize false casting (which you should do anyway),
and maybe open your loop a little bit. In a sense, it's just practice.
Also, when a fish takes the nymph, try not to forget about the upstream
hook. Nothing funnier than having a barbed hook embedded in your hand while
a big fish is tugging on it.
