Just wondering if air brushing an eye on would work?

I thought about getting into airbrushing many times there’s so many wonderful things you can do I’ve seen some of the guys make some beautiful stuff with an airbrushThe answer to your question is yes you can do eyeballs with the airbrush

Bob, these eyeballs are very interesting. I wonder if anyone has thought about just fishing an eyeball on a bare #6 hook? Gills and Crappie just might be in a slurping mood. Just thinking outside of the box here. Put a little slab sauce on them and see what happens. I'll bet some poor old Gill or Crappie might think it is a perch eye "G" and take a bite of it.

Sounds like a good ideal Mike I’ve never thought about fishing eyeballs I know years ago that we used to take their eyeballs out of crappie and fish with them.

Mike did you get the package I sent to you with some eyeballs.

I did Bob. Thank you. That is why I posted yesterday. I was playing with the eyeballs and experimenting how I would use them.

We used to catch yellow perch with real fish eyeballs when I lived in Washington state... they will bite anything

Yep, they even made a tool so you could scoop the eyeball out without popping g it. Never thought to try it on crappies or bluegills.

You’ll have to get a picture of that eyeball popper.
