Sorry but I laughed. Come on, that's funny. I do applaud your thinking outside the box and imagination, way outside the box.

Resourceful, and a nice job of gluing. I'd expect this to affect the lure's action some.

Is this for bass, or will the 'eyes have it?

I've fished with Lola and caught many bass. I have not been out with her sister yet but with these type of girls, well they won't care if they are both on deck at the same time. Margarita could use a trim but I'll try her like this first.

When swimming the gills lay back. On the pause they flare out. Next is a jerk bait. The gills flaring out on the pause give a bit of an injured or destressed look to the bait.

Super glue gel. Lashes on fleabay .99

Hmmm... Seems that you may have had previous experiences with attaching eye lashes?
Clever idea!

Yah well... I don't recommend the super glue for personal use.

Nice job, is it worth it to get the lashes or would yarn or pipe cleaner work the same?
