Title: Artificial fish eyes
Post by: DennyR on Jan 30, 2019, 02:19 PM

Years ago I bought rubber artificial fish eyes they were olive green with a white and black colored eye like center. They came about a dozen in a cardboard card with clear plastic covering.
Last ones I bought were at the Worcester MA fishing show.
I believe they were made in the upper Midwest or lakes area?

I have been searching for years and with Zero luck. They were effective for jigging.

Anyone have a lead?

Anyone ever see real fish eyes sold in small jars like salmon eggs?  Have not seen but heard they are very effective for jigging.
