Tungsten Surveyor (Jig Hook) - Fast, Easy, Most Productive Nymph EVER!

- For the past five years or so this Lance Egan creation has been one of the top producing nymph in my arsenal. For the past year we have been fishing the Tungsten Surveyor on a Syndicate jig hook which has been dynamite! When it comes to easy, quick to tie, and extremely effective flies the Surveyor nymph is on top of that list.
Egan's Surveyor is extremely effective Euro Nymphing, Czech Nymphing, and even indicator nymphing. The additional weight from the tungsten bead helps this pattern get down to the fish quickly and helps it stay low in the feeding zone longer during each drift. There are many benefits of fishing jig nymphs including better hook ups primarily in the top of the mouth, better holding power once a fish is hooked, and fewer snags since it rides hook point up which results in fewer lost flies.

Hi Gilbert I noticed two differences between how you tie this fly and how Lance ties it.His uses pt for the tail and he uses a tinsel wing case.Which is more effective?
Nice fly👍🏻
JS Boyle thanks, we appreciate it!
This is an absolutely insane pattern! I tied a few and caught 12 trout on it in less than 45 minutes...3 of which were over twenty inches. This completely outperformed my mayfly emerger and scud patterns I trailed behind it. Even after 12 fish, it still looked fresh! My box will have a healthy amount of these at all times. Thanks!!
AWESOME Justin! So glad to hear you had the same success with this pattern as I'm accustomed to. It's money for sure! Happy tying!
I may have missed it in the video, but what size bead is this?

nice fly
Thanks Mark, I appreciate it!
Looks a terrific jig and now the biggest one in my box next to my usual size 16 and 20 jigs. Do you tie them smaller than a 12 or do you lose the rainbow effect from the dubbing in smaller sizes?
Size 14 and 16 are fantastic as well on a jig hook. I don't tie the jig version any smaller mostly because I trust other hooks such as the Hanak 230 more than small jig hooks. I fish it in an 18 tied on the Hanak 230, but really my go-to sizes are 12-16.
awesome fast pattern. will tie some for point flies. thumbs up for the race car effect. :-)
+gannon767 Deadly point fly for sure. Got to love the race car ;-)
I about died when you "pounded" the fly! That's what hooked me on a subscription. Great tie! I've been getting into simple prospecting flies lately and I will definitely whip up some of these! Thanks for the vid and added humor.
+Gorda Sharker I'm glad you liked the humor. If you can't have fun while tying, then why tie! It's my buddy Kohler on the vise in this video and he is a funny dude. Thanks for subscribing!
Nice, I love those two dubbings. I use them as much as possible, even mixed with other dubbing. Thanks for sharing. All the best to you for 2016. Sean
For sure, thanks Sean!!!
Helicoptering wire will never be the same.
Thanks for the response. I have been having trouble with the syndicate beads making it around the bends and seating on the hook eye in the right position. I do like the jigs and the midge hooks (bk200 I thing) from syndicate. I will give the other beads a shot. Thanks again
Love this fly! Just curious- is it awkward that your website competes with Fly Fish Food?
Nope, Lance and I are great friends, and this is just more publicity for a fantastic fly he created. Our website flytying123.com is so small apples compared to them that it's not looked at that way. Glad you like the fly!
Great fry will try. must try the race car 😄
+Stephen Hibbs You'll love the race car! It's a blast!
we, we,we,we,we,we,we,we,we,we who is we?
+Steve C Ha ha, good point. My buddy Derek Kohler is on the vise for this one. He and I run the website flytying123.com/ together. When either of us say "we" in a video it's because most of our fly tying and fly fishing adventures are done together. Everyone needs a good fishing buddy, that's who "WE" are. Great question ;-)
