Adding eyes to flies can be a great idea!
Increased Realism: Eyes help replicate the appearance of natural prey, such as fish, insects, or crustaceans, making the fly more lifelike. This added realism can trigger a trout’s predatory instincts, especially in clear water where they might scrutinize their prey closely.
Attraction to Fish: Bright, contrasting eyes can attract fish from a distance, drawing them towards the fly. The movement and flash of the eyes in the water can help to catch the attention of fish, especially in low-light conditions or murky waters.
Improved Fly Action: Eyes can affect the way the fly moves through the water. Heavier eyes can help the fly sink faster or ride in the water column at a particular depth. This can be useful for mimicking the behavior of certain prey, such as nymphs or minnows.
Mimics Predator Prey: Adding eyes makes the fly appear as though it is an animal that a fish might consider prey, like an injured or vulnerable creature. This can make fish more likely to strike.
