BryBear Posted January 19, 2008 Report Share Posted January 19, 2008 I have searched a few places and I cannot find a good reasonable source for Swim bait eyes for plastic? Can you guys give me a few sites? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
longhorn Posted January 19, 2008 Report Share Posted January 19, 2008 I get mine at Barlows...don't know if the price is reasonable or not. http://www.barlowstackle.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nova Posted January 19, 2008 Report Share Posted January 19, 2008 Lurecraft was the cheapest I found outside of buying larger volumns from the manufacturer. www.novalures.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smallie Posted January 19, 2008 Report Share Posted January 19, 2008 Is there a rule of thumb for diameter of the eye versus the various common lengths? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nova Posted January 20, 2008 Report Share Posted January 20, 2008 I don't think there is a rule of thumb for the sizes. I think you just use the one that looks the best on the baits you are making. www.novalures.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwampBaits Posted January 20, 2008 Report Share Posted January 20, 2008 I get mine from this place https://www.njtackle.com/shop/index.php?cName=plug-building-supplies-eyes They arrived three days after ordering them....unlike the ones I ordered from Stamina, which took forever.

GB GONE Posted January 21, 2008 Report Share Posted January 21, 2008 If you can stand to buy 1000, go right to Witch-Craft Tape products. I think 1000 cost me around $42.... Almost 1/3 of what you pay on any other sites.(.12/eye on many sites vs .04/eye WTP) Might find a buddy and split them... Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nova Posted January 21, 2008 Report Share Posted January 21, 2008 Those eyes at NJ tackle are quite expensive compared to Lurecraft at $7/100. www.novalures.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
captsully18 Posted January 21, 2008 Report Share Posted January 21, 2008 Those eyes at NJ tackle are quite expensive compared to Lurecraft at $7/100. Yeah, but I just got some eyes from NJ and they are super. Best eyes I have found. And thanks Ghost, price for 1000 @ $42 isn't bad. I may even find someone to split it with.

gunnie3035 Posted January 23, 2008 Report Share Posted January 23, 2008 Cape Cod Tackle.... The only place to order in smaller than 1000 units. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
captsully18 Posted January 23, 2008 Report Share Posted January 23, 2008 Whose the maufacturer Capt?www.novalures.com Nova, these are Witch-Craft from NJ Tackle. I have eyes from Jann's, Barlow's, Lurecraft and these impress me the most. They seem to be "deeper" than the others. Really improve the looks of my baits, and believe me, my baits need all the help they can get. Later David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
