Product Description

Hends – Booby Eyes 7mm – Large buoyant foam eyes for booby and stillwater predator flies.

The Hends Booby Eyes 7mm are designed for tying bigger booby-style patterns that demand maximum buoyancy and visibility. Made from durable closed-cell foam, these oversized eyes help flies suspend above the bottom or push water on the surface when paired with sinking or intermediate lines. Perfect for targeting trout, bass, and other stillwater species, their larger profile makes patterns stand out while maintaining a lifelike silhouette. Easy to tie in and available in multiple colours, Hends Booby Eyes 7mm are a top choice for anglers looking to build highly effective, buoyant stillwater flies.
