The overall score is owner satisfaction weighted by how many reviews back it, so a high rating from few reviews counts for less.

Overview
This oval pupil fishing eye pack delivers 348 pieces for $6.59, a bulk count that puts the per-eye cost well below single-item fly materials in this comparison. Made of plastic and weighing just 0.02 pounds for the full pack, it is built to be a stock-up item rather than a one-off purchase, with the listed 2D Red Yellow White colorway and small size suited to smaller lures and flies.
The review numbers stand out. At 735 reviews and a 4.4-star average, it has more feedback logged than the CDC28 (359 reviews, 4.0 stars), the Elk Hair (110 reviews, 4.5 stars), and the NB377 (550 reviews, 4.2 stars), while matching or beating each of them on rating. That combination, a high star average sustained across the largest review base in the group, points to consistent satisfaction rather than a small sample skewing the score.
Bought last month sits at 0+, the same recent-demand figure listed for the CDC28 and Elk Hair, so recent purchase volume does not distinguish it from those alternatives even though its total review count is much higher. At $6.59 for 348 pieces, it remains one of the lowest per-unit costs among the fly-tying materials compared here.

Performance notes
A 348-piece pack at 0.02 pounds total means each individual eye is tiny and light, which fits smaller lures and flies where a heavier eye would throw off the balance or sink rate. The oval pupil shape and small size point to general-purpose use across a range of tying projects rather than a single specialized pattern. Plastic construction keeps unit cost low, which matters when a project calls for dozens of eyes across a batch of lures rather than a handful for one fly. At $6.59 for 348 pieces, the cost per eye works out to a fraction of a cent, which makes it practical to over-buy for a season of tying without worrying about waste from a broken or lost eye here and there.
What buyers say
With 735 reviews behind a 4.4-star average, this is the largest review base of any product in this fly-tying material comparison, and the score held up across that volume rather than dropping as more buyers weighed in. That pattern usually points to a product that performs consistently across different tying projects and skill levels rather than one that only pleases a narrow group. The 0+ bought-last-month figure, shared with the CDC28 and Elk Hair, suggests recent purchase activity has cooled even though the long-run review record remains strong, which is common for a bulk stock-up item buyers do not need to reorder often.

Frequently asked questions
How many fishing eyes are in this pack?
The pack includes 348 plastic oval pupil eyes for $6.59, giving a low per-unit cost for anglers who tie or build multiple lures and flies in a session without needing to reorder eyes every few projects, since the count covers dozens of ties from one order.
Is a 4.4-star rating reliable across 735 reviews?
Yes. At 735 reviews it has the largest feedback base of the fly-tying materials compared here, and the 4.4-star average held steady across that volume rather than being propped up by a small early sample of buyers, which is a stronger signal of consistency.
Does the low bought-last-month number mean quality has slipped?
Not necessarily. The 0+ figure matches the CDC28 and Elk Hair, both established products with strong long-run ratings, so it more likely reflects a bulk item that buyers restock infrequently rather than a recent drop in satisfaction or interest among tiers.
