Default Dry and dropper question

It will also work using a leader ring and the same loop, if you want a
"stand-off" dry fly, and this will also allow you to use even knotted
leaders if they pass through the ring. Otherwise the adjustment is of
course limited to the distance between knots.

Of course you can remove or change the dry fly at any time, simply by
passing it back through the loop.

That's a pretty sweet solution, Mike.
