Who would have known that the simple question about popping out perch eyes would become so popular. I believe that I will take the advise and use the tie wires from a potatoe Bag. They look to be just the right size for the job. Thanks for all the good input and I hope to meet some of you on the ice some day. You seem like a great bunch of guys that could teach me a thing or two about the sport. Thanks again,
