I like Gary's marabou egg pattern. The first time I fished it I had tied it on but dropped it in the water while fumbling to get some tippet to make a dropper. By the time the dropper was ready I started to retrieve the fly, but discovered it had caught a fish! I took this as a sign and caught several more using the same downstream presentation. It has been my favorite egg fly every since.
The fly has a pink antron body, marabou tied in a loop from one end of the shank to the other (size sixteen hook), and a little bit of brown hackle at the head. I guess the movement of the marabou imitates the movements of the natural eggs.
