oops. I almost forgot. Once you have the color you want, you'll want to add some eyes.

1. with the tip of a hook, pin, nail, etc. puncture the sluggo where you want the eyes to line up.

2. buy a pack of dolls eyes from you favorite tackle shop/craft shop.

3. with a file or sandpaper, scratch the plastic backing of the doll's eyes to they will adhere to the sluggo.

4. Lay the sluggos on their side ( do a bunch at a time)

5. add a drop of superglue where you punctured the sluggo, spread open the rubber so it penetrates a little and lay the eye on top.
let dry overnight , flip the sluggos and repeat on the other side.

Note, for some reason, the glue does not adhere well to the blue/silver sluggos. I think the material may be different (or I need to try a different superglue).

did I mention TO- ADD SOME SMELLY JELLY AND CATCH LARGE ?
