Was tying up some shrimp/prawn type thingies for flats fishing and got tired of making burnt mono and epoxy eyes (burn a bulb on the mono, dap some nail polish on the bulb, then a blob of epoxy), so made some simple quick eyes by painting a dot of nail polish on end of the mono, then gluing on a small attractor bead people use ahead of their hook when bait fishing.

1/8th oz with white and a touch of peach arctic fox. Middle one has epoxy eyes. Really like the glow/lumo bead eyes, as shrimp/prawns really seem to have glowing eyes when hit with a flash light. The red bead eyes are nice too.
