NOT the infection! I posted this in the Crappie section but I figured more tier's would see it here.

Our Chinese Eye supplier (1500 3mm for $9.99) said Pink eyes were in production now and that he would have a limited # at first to test the market. He's supposed to email me when he has them available.

I told him that I knew at least a dozen tier's that would probably buy them and that was just from 1 forum.

Heath, I got an email from Wang over at lifeflies about the pink eyes. He said the factory he has been dealing with can't make the pink eyes due to color variations & he's going to check other factories. Have you heard otherwise?

Vern, he told me the same thing Friday. He stated the factory said they could, but ended up not be able to match it. He is checking with other factories that use other colors to see if they can make the pink.

There's Eric and Sam Wang, both tackle suppliers... As if this couldn't get a little more confusing.

Hi Jerry,

I am Wang, eBay ID: lifeflies

Thanks for the message, I will attach a pic here for the new silver-gold eye.

I will change a factory to do the pink eyes...

Thanks,
Sam Wang

Surely we're all talking to the same guy? He's going to produce 4mm versions of these eyes first - if it's the same guy. Sure he'll update all of us when he finds a pink supplier. LoL @ the product demand.

I've done business with "lifeflies" and have been very pleased with the quality, price, and promptness. Got a bunch of silver eyes from him about a week ago and now you guys are talking me into another order...ugh! smile


Fishing is a jerk at one end of the line, waiting on a jerk at the other end...and I'm proud to be one of 'em.
