An alternative method of fishing a team of North Country Spiders without using droppers by Stephen Cheetham, Fishing with Style, Yorkshire Dales, England
certainly unlike any rig I have seen to date. I hope it catches on as there are many soft hackle (spider) enthusiasts here in America. Thanks for sharing. All the best, Sean

I find the most frustrating part of fishing any team is having to haul in and unwind the droppers every few casts. I'm sure that I'm effectively only fishing the point half the time as a result. I shall certainly give this technique a try. Thanks for posting this vey clear and informative video.

Thanks for the video Stephen, am sure a lot of the anglers up here on the River Clyde will find this helpful. I will pop it onto our forum for our members to view.

Basically a barrel stopper knot with an up line slipping bite holding the fly, hard to the barrel when tightened. I like it.

Very interesting thanks. Ive already made some leaders up and will try them on the hodder if this bloody virus ever goes away.

Thanks to Stephen for this innovative idea. However I don't think I'm tying the knot correctly. I make the loop and run the tag end through twice, then pass the fly through and tighten, but when I tug on my fly, it opens the loop and runs back up the line toward the fly line. Any ideas? Thanks!

Ok this has been around for a few years now. I fish fast, gin clear water here in West Virginia, USA. Love my NC Spiders and want to try this. My question is how much does it weaken the tippet and does it cause any missed takes. Love the idea. And for added info I generally fishing 6x or smaller tippet. I tie a killer 28 Stewarts black spider.

Cant wait to try this. The hours I will save (attempting to) detangling droppers. Might give it a go on my sea rigs also

This looks useful, I would like to try it out on the upper reaches of Wharfe, do you have any thoughts about line strength?

Hello Stephen, will this setup work using nymph flies? Thank you

Tie your dropper to your leader with a knot that will present the dropper 90 degrees off the leader, and use 12lb test flourocarbon for the dropper line. Keep the dropper line short, maybe 8 inches. Short, stiff, and 90 degrees will keep the droppers from twisting up on the leader. This fixed it for me.

Do you cast up or downstream

Up and across is best. It's more work but I believe it's responsible for the better quality fish.
