Not sure what you meant by "this method".


Tying flies to tag ends of the surgeon's knot(s).

You could continue and tie 2 or 3 more surgeons knots and put droppers
on them, but with each one you increase the complexity of the rig and
the bigger chance of snarling. If I use this method I tie a fly to
the tag end of the leader (at Surgeons knot), a fly to the end of that
tippet (this would be the heavy fly to get the rig down), and then tie
a piece of tippet to the bend of the hefty fly and your third fly to
the end of that tippet.




How does the snarling of czeck compare to just tying 24 inches of tippet
to the bend of the first fly, and 24 inches to the bend of the second
fly (I find the more line the less chance of snarling)
