Doctored Fly props

I bought a few thousand props from Worth and thought I'd try something different with them. Why not put eyes on them? I used flat eyes on them.2mm for the small ones and 3mm for the mediums. After they were installed I clearcoated them with np. Tyed up a couple baits as well.Finished bait is a 1/16 head with a #2 Owner 5318. The prop is a medium,tail is natural badger and pink badger hackle with pink SF FLASH BLEND.The body is Palmer chenille wrapped over a pink thread base.Not quite what I had wanted but it will do for now. It's a four eyed boolie.View attachment 1View attachment 2View attachment 3View attachment 4

very nice....Your always workin on something

Oh sure Jim up the difficulty factor!!!!!LOL Great looking tie!!!

Now that is wild!! I love the way you use that palmer chenille, nice!!!!

After I posted last night I found two sheets of those stick on eyes, Red with black pupil and green with black pupil. Gonna have to try a few!!

Creative original thinking for sure, but...

Interesting idea, but do they affect the action of the prop?

Great idea and now something else to try.

Those are sweet looking tyes. I agree that you have a great idea.

The eyes and nail polish finish have no effect on the action. Like John said in an earlier post about giving it the "blow test". I blow on the front of the head and if the blade spins easily they are good to go. I might take them out for a test run tommorrow,supposed to hit 60 degrees. Here's some smaller chubs,1/64 on a #8 mustad 32833.View attachment 1View attachment 4View attachment 7View attachment 8
