5 out of 5 stars Great eyes 00/00/0000
Reviewer: Daniel Andrews (daa791@embarqmail.com) from Fort Myers, FL US
The plated eyes are more durable, add flash, and do not tarnish. Definitely a must for saltwater patterns. Unplated will work, but can be gashed by sharp teeth, and will in time corrode in the salt.

Reviewer: Hindrick Ter Haseborg (Hindrick1@hotmail.com) from monrovia Liberia
As said a must have for salt water fly-fishing Also when you really need to go down and deep. First timers take care during casting your fly.

5 out of 5 stars just the ticket 00/00/0000
Reviewer: Joel Szymczyk (jszymczyk@sw.rr.com) from Rehobeth, AL US
Great quality eyes. They take paint well. A trick I learned to easily paint lead eyes, is to take an old comb and push the eyes down into the teeth of the comb. Depending on the size of the eyes and the comb, 20 or more can be securely held for painting. Best to use a white base coat so the red, yellow, or chartreuse iris color is nice and bright. Lead eyes hold well in the comb, but plated or brass eyes slip out easily.
