Devcon, 2 ton, 30 minute epoxy. Mix it up, place in the hole, screw the screw eye in place. If some spills over, just even it out around the screw eye as it will help to hold it in place.

Inject some glue into the hole with the nozzle freak then put the eye in, I've not ever had one leak in all the screw eye plugs I have done. Dry in 24 hours and I think stronger than epoxy. I've seen epoxy not bond and I've not once seen that with the polyurethanes. Use what you think will work for you I guess.

When I'm using screw eyes, I usually do a pilot hole with a bit that is smaller than the screw eye. After that, I hit the same hole about 1/4 inch deep with a bit that is twice the size of the screw eye. Will make the bond stronger. Also makes getting the epoxy in the hole easier, and they are not coming out that way. Mix up the epoxy and use a section of wire to put it in the hole. If you did not do the larger hole, you can mix up the epoxy and smear it around the tip of the screw eye and part way up the shank.

I make prop plugs with 2" magnum screw eyes back and front. Drill hole just a little smaller than screw, no glue at all. Very strong in maple needles. Can be adjusted by turning with pliers. 2" screw is long enough to catch belly swivel as well.

That particular needle has no belly weight and it spins on a fast retrieve.
Works ok on a very slow retrieve, which is the way I use it. Tried trolling with it once in Fla., wasn't paying attention, talk about twisted mono.
Not one of my best, but if you want to trade I could make some more.

Those woodchoppers are really cool. I looked at stamina and the chopper blades I saw listed didnt look like the ones in your pics? 
Can someone post a link to the page please?

Use a short fat one like that for fresh water bass in the Adirondack Mountains. They love it!
