Henk, i'm gonna give that a try. Can you tell me, how far apart the two droppers are, and how far the closest one to the dry fly is from the dry fly? And how long the droppers are? Might be fun to give the fish three possible meals. mark.....

So, to the question. I read, just now, some booby tips and techniques and something called "Washing the line technique". I've never heard of it. Maybe it's an English term for something I already know... maybe it's not and it's something completely new.

Washing line technique, where you have a floating fly on the end of the leader (as opposed to a bob fly on the top dropper) and two or three slowly sinking, unweighted nymphs as droppers above that, usually buzzers. When the leader is more or less taut, you have a situation with the droppers hanging from a leader suspended in the surface, resembling a washing line with socks on. A relatively recent British stillwater technique, at least as a named technique...
