I noticed My MS Slammer was winking at me this morning......
Any suggestions on replacing a missing eyeball ?
Thanks
Don

Never heard of an eyeball falling out of a slammer. You can get the same eyeballs at your local craft store. I know Craft Village in santa barbara had the exact eyes as the ones mike uses. Just find some type of hardcore epoxy and glue the sucker in there.

Pehaps you might consider leaving it eyeless on that side. Maybe the bass will think, "hey, that guy is blind on one side. I can sneak up and grab him and he won't even see me coming"

Don, you weren't taking a leak when the one-eyed slammer winked at you, were you? Just kidding- I think most off those big girls see the action and outline of the bait from the bottom and decide to kill it before they notice their latest victim has just one eye.

Well, although my wife thinks I'm a freak for searching the valley for
an eyeball for a lure...I did find the same one at D&J crafts in Campbell. Thanks Brian.......
