I rig mine with a hole drilled staright through the egg and then about 8 inches 50lb leader with barrel swilvels on both ends. The loguc being that you'll feel the hit directyl to teh rod and the fish will not immediately feel the weight of the egg.
As a surcaster, I feel flies are one of the best striper baits and mimic the small baitfsih that are predominately in the areas I fish. The egg is a great method and as stated earlier, works great with small jigs in rocky areas.
