NIB i'll call y ain a bit...

as for eyes, i wont pu t them in now if i only use one hook on the belly as the plug will roll more- my dannies with two hooks wiggle like a bastid, so the eyes are not distracting and like you say, make a target- thats also why i put the plack dots behind the eyes..

interesting concept....but I don't agree with any of it
unless you can prove to me that you can talk to fish and they tell you that eyes makes them woozy ...its hearsay.give me the most realistic copy of a baitfish ....I have not yet seen the one with no eyes swim around
as far as the colors scheme ... maybe,sometimes,occasionally ...basically ,like all other concept ...

beachmasters used to work just fine with no eyes




having said that, I have dannys with eyes and without

beachmasters dont wobble... if your plug wobbles, you gotta paint it a solid color so there are no details to show the wobble..


another thing is that the bass are attacking the plug from below most of the time and probably dont see the eyes.

needlefish on the other hand really need eyes IMO>..

not really
I fish lots of needles
and blind ones catch too
I can see that when the bass are picky and there is not complete darkness. I never fish needles in the daytime unless I am on my boat in a certain harbor mimicking sandeels fished fast.

true bruce. i guess what i ma saying is any plug that can be presented at eye level to the bass might fare better with eyes.

needles catch bass under a bright sunny sky too . Took a kid that didn't know what he was doing to prove it to me .
