I remember someone telling me that you have to drill out the holes for them and then put them in.I looked into it but decided its was pain in the ass so I ditched that idea.These should be a link in there somewhere where you can by the stuff to do it.

Eff that! Well I guess that would make sense, if you want the light to pass through from one eye to the other... |

You would have to drill the eyes out. I had some done and the guy did really nice work. I haven't had a chance to use them yet. Another month and the walleyes hopefully will be tearing them up.

We used to all laugh around here at those 'fiber optic eyes' Rapalas - but now that I know what is involved with doing them, I won't be laughing anymore. Especially because I had originally thought they were just 'stick-on' eyes...and also because of the prices they are fetching! |
