Dropper Rig

[Njardar]

Anyone use a dropper rig at Montauk or the Current River? If so what are you using? I've seen a bunch of posts with list of flies that are working but I don't recall any with a dry and emerger, two nymphs, streamer and nymph, etc. Is this technique not commonly used in this area?

Either two nymphs or a dry-dropper. Nymphs catch more fish, plain and simple. I use the dry-dropper either when fishing riffles and fish like to hit my indicator, or if the fish seem extra-picky. I feel it gives me a more subtle presentation, and the I think the fish usually agree. The two nymph rig is a way to either attract fish with an egg or san juan and catch with a more natural nymph, or burn through the flies that aren't working at a faster rate. That's how I use it, at least.
