I realize, the posting I'm referring to is eight years old, but is one of the most astute recommendations for drop shorting.(Fourbizz) addresses every aspect of the technique from rod to weight/hook. But the line recommendation was the one that really grabbed my attention. The reasoning and the suggestions on knot for tying fly to leader to braid. But the use of braid to lessen line twist and lessen the bow in line, thereby increasing sensitivity and hook sets, is greatly appreciated. New member, this was the first post I read. And very impressed with the forum. For those that want to read or re-read, it was titled "Drop shotting my way" Jan 09.
