Heavy Lead Eyes

Description

Typically, Hareline Heavy Lead Eyes are used for streamers when you want to add weight and invert the hook point. These are shaped like the popular barbell brass eyes but made of lead so they’re heavier than either brass barbells or standard lead barbells with a narrow center bridge. They are also easier to center on the hook while you’re tying them on.

Depending on eye placement, you can build swimming and jigging actions into your flies. Placed on the top of the hook you can invert the hook creating a weedless fly that bounces on the bottom. Placed on the underside of the hook, these eyes also function as a strike point for predatory fish.

Plated either black or bright nickel. 20 per package.
