Posts: 399 Location: Burton, Ohio | I like those eyes guys. Those big one's get your attention. I just really think that those help a bit. Just a feeling I have no proof. Semi related with walleyes. We were fishing a hump and marking a ton of fish. Could not get them to bite. I broke off a jig and reached in my box to grab another. I had some old jigs that had some very big eyes in the same color. I put it on and started to get fish on after another. Friend put one on also and did the same. Was it the eyes or just feeding time. Who knows. | ||

Posts: 29 | If you feel the fish like lures jigs or what ever whith bigger eyes I'd go with it. They do say having confidense in a lure is a good part to being successful in using them | ||

brule - 10/18/2006 11:15 AM Bodega, Where do you get those gold size eyes. Luke Brule I buy the clear custom eyes from New Jersey Tackle then paint the gold behind the eye. I also shoot the backs of the eyes with a clear coat in hopes the paint won't run off while there in the water. So far So good. | |||
