What kind of eyes are those?
Thx.
They're weightless dumbell eyes from sightcastflyfishing. Those are size large.
Was about to ask! Do you ever have issues with them breaking? My knockoffs do frequently enough that I stopped using them altogether.
They are pretty damn durable, have not one failed yet. That perch fly have hit the rocks, snagged on branches, bass eat and still perfect. Thanks to @jasmillo for jumping out of the boat to retrieve it yesterday. I do coat the pupil with sally hansen for a bit of extra protection and shine though.
Nice! Bring some in white/tan too!
I should be able to find room in the box for a few ...although, I'm currently at 3 decent sized boxes....yes, I know I have a problem.
That was not a favor, that was a man who is 25lbs overweight cooling off
. My overheated feet and lower calves appreciated your miscalculated cast immensely.
