Zbass Posted July 18, 2008 Report Share Posted July 18, 2008 nugene, Try a web site called papercraftsource.com. Go to the embelishment catagory and they have cat eyes in 5 and 7mm. the only thing is they do not say what quantity you get for $2.50. I have not seen it. I would hate to order and get two eyes or something like that. Let me know what you find out. Zbass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palmetto Balsa Posted July 18, 2008 Report Share Posted July 18, 2008 (edited) Guys, Use the advertisers of the site. It has got to be on the right side of your screen with the photos of what you are looking for and in all sizes. Here, I'll make it easy. Animal, Cut, Cat and Comical Eyes This is what the ad looks like. Edited July 18, 2008 by Palmetto Balsa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zbass Posted July 19, 2008 Report Share Posted July 19, 2008 Palmetto, Those people have a lot of selection, but what nugene and myself were looking for is a smaller cat eye than what they have. Their smallest that they have is 9mm and we are hunting for 6,7 and 8mm. Doesn't seem like much difference, but in my case I have molded the baits for 7mm.

Palmetto Balsa Posted July 19, 2008 Report Share Posted July 19, 2008 Yep, you are right about that. When I clicked and saw the eye size chart. I thought they had exactly what you were looking for. Now that I scrolled down, I see that the cat eyes only come on the 9mm and up. They do have the smaller animal eyes but the difference is a round pupil vs. a oval pupil.

Basseducer Posted July 19, 2008 Report Share Posted July 19, 2008 Why not give them a call, they may have people (sources). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottishghillie Posted July 19, 2008 Report Share Posted July 19, 2008 (edited) Cant you slightly enlarge the eye hole for the nearest matching eyes? Edited July 19, 2008 by scottishghillie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zbass Posted July 19, 2008 Report Share Posted July 19, 2008 I guess I'm just hooked on the wicked look of cat eyes when you put them on at an angle. Makes the bait look MAD! Zbass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clemmy Posted July 20, 2008 Report Share Posted July 20, 2008 My first reccomendation would be trying our TU sponsor to see if they could order them for you... Otherwise, give this a try: Teds From Threads And More - Miniature Thread Crochet Bears They actually have noses too! kool for that mouse/rat bait...

Predator Bass Baits Posted July 22, 2008 Report Share Posted July 22, 2008 I think I found some stick on cat eyes at $4 for 16 ( 7mm 1/4" ) and $4 for 36 (5mm 1/5" ) plus shipping. I ordered some to see but it looks like they are out of town and it could take 10 day's for me to get them. I will post when I get them or you can contact me at predatorbassbaits@charter.net colors are yellow, Blue, Brown, Pale blue, green. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
