Screw eyes won't pull out. If put in with epoxy. And I think someone here tested them to be stronger than through wire many years ago.

The problem you run Into with them is if you hammer the plug and take tons of fish on them eventually they will loosen and become wobbly.

Tough to do if you epoxy them in but then again I have been successful at tearing the bottom half of swivels off of plugs I have used so much.

You never know when you might stand on a rock for 8+ hours with fish mid 20#'s to high 30's every cast.
