I have learned a lot from you guys. Thanks, sure makes the evening pass when the weather is too nasty to fish. Here are some heads I poured and attempted stick in eyes. Which ones you like. I like the yellow ones as they stand out better. I just did 10 of each color. I think on next ones I put on I will use a small dab of super glue. I coated them with clear vinyl but fear they may come off. Attachment 185027Attachment 185028
I like the red ones.........
Do you glue them on?
"WOW" Nice!!Attachment 185029Attachment 185030We like the loctite!! a little goes a long way!!:twocents
I flattened the head like fatmans video and then applied eyes. I didn't glue the eyes on this batch but I think I will on my next batch. I just stuck them to the head and then applied vinyl clear coat over. I think I am gonna put two coats clear to make sure they don't fall off lol.
Jackie the whole time I put them on I was thinking loctite lol
I use DUCO cement and I haven't lost an eye yet!! and that includes the ones I do with doll eyes.
Nice work with the eyes :ThumbsUp I pick eye color to match the finished jig color, or what I think looks best.
Where do you get duco ? Super glue is everywhere.
Those pink ones won't work in Arkansas so you better just send them to me :Rofl
"Great looking eyes"
Had trouble on some of mine coming off, now like jackie53 after viewing this promo gonna give loctite super glue a try

Nice eyes! Like the 3d red. I just stick my eyes on and brush a coat of clear nail polish to hold em in place.
Where do you get your jig eyes from?
Ebay has been cheapest I found

Got in a group buy over on JigCraft and we got them from Lifefly-Outdoors on ebay Tying Material, Jig items in Fishing store on eBay!
I must get different eyes or something. I put them on my big walleye jigs without glue or clear coat. I have 100's in my box and have only had one comeoff. Sometimes these jigs are on and in the water for two straight days. Now you all have me thinking. My eyes are prism. I never seen the ones like this thread but I like them. I buy mine from Jann's.
Could be a bigger eye has more bonding surface also as the 3-4 mm eyes not much glue tape on them small dudes.
