They do not stick to painted popper bodies while sitting on my tying desk. I've actually never had a pair stay on the popper long enough to try them in the water. A waste of money.

But if you're gearing up for dry flies, you're probably not reading about this product. These 3D eyes are just wonderful. Sure they look great on the card, but stick them on a streamer, or on the sides or top of a popper body and they just bring "life" to your fly. They'll turn a "hunk of foam on a hook" into a living, breathing Frog. I recommend using the Red and Yellow (really more of a "Chartreuse"!) in suitable sizes. Even the smallest flies can have eyes. Just remember that the adhesive on these eyes is just there for temporary use. It's just for positioning the eye. Once stuck to the fur/foam/feather/whatever, get out some sort of adhesive coating and really stick it down. Chances are that most flies that will rate getting eyes are going to get a good head-job with some head cement, epoxy, C.A., "Goop", or some other concoction, so make sure that you cover the eyes and you'll have a durable fish-getter. (The fishing theory is that most game fish will try to attack their quarry's head, and they can identify the head by spotting the eyes. On our flies, the head is the hook, and is generally in front of the hook's point, so ... ) Was this review helpful to you? 48 of 93 people found the following review helpful: Very Realistic 00/00/0000 Reviewer: Francis M. from Palm Coast, FL US I use these exclusively for deceiver variations. I use the big (5/16) red eyes for all of my bigger snook flies and it makes a big difference. Recommended. Was this review helpful to you?
