[quote Troll]Increase the dropper by 1 or 2 X in size from your leader tippet to decrease tangles.
I use the biggest tippet that will fit through the eye for my dropper, this makes the whole fly/dropper throw better.[/quote]
I should clarify, if your throwing a size 14 or 16 dry on a 5x tippet, use a size 4 or 3x tippet to tie on the dropper.
For a size 12 fly on a size 4x tippet use a 3 or 2x tippet to tie on the dropper.
