Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!  That is my secret weapon!  I've gone 3 for 5 on the past two trip running that under Over The Edge Tackle's dropper jigs.  If you want a little more room between the egg and the point of the hook you should try Gammy Finesse hook (shorter shank and bigger bend).  I've also done well on Nates in the spring on my favHohrite river when running a second egg placed over the eye of the hook.  I usually run this without the jig though.  Like Brian said, the key is extra wraps on the hook and a piece of yarn in the loop below the egg.  I don't knot the yarn however, the egg keeps it in place usually.  Regarding egg color, Jensen's cerise eggs are the perfect mix of orange and pink.  As the picture shows, they are also translucent and really seem to catch light well.
