I needed some barbells for a largemouth trip and figured I would give these a try. The finish is gorgeous, and uniform. Didn't find any weird/deformed ones like I have with other brands. The price for what you get from Allen is fantastic; they have become my go-to online source for beads and barbells.

I'm not sure why other brand's barbells cost so much but the value here is awesome. I go over the top and sand and place my own eye pupils on them and they hold up great with some Sally HJansens. Great barbell for clouser minnow type baitfish or long lazer dub heads for articulated patterns.

I use alot of dumbbell eyes and these are the best I've seen. The quality is top notch and the finish is impeccable. I will be buying these from now on.

THIS IS THE TIME OF YEAR THAT WE WADE OUR RIVERS AND CREEKS IN NW ARKANSAS AND SW MISSOURI TEARING UP THE LOCAL POPULATION OF SMALLMOUTH BASS. I TIE A FLY CALLED THE WINGED WONDER WHICH WORKS GREAT THROWN UP INTO THE CHUNK ROCK AND BOULDERS LETTING THE CURRENT BOUNCE IT OUT INTO THE MAIN STEM OF THE CREEK. THE EYES ARE TIED CLOUSER STYLE ON AN 811S. THE ONLY REASON I'M RATING 4 STARS VS. 5 STARS IS I COULD USE ONE SIZE LARGER IN THE PLACES WHERE THE CURRENT IS HEAVIER. HAVING THE DIFFERENT COLORS WORKS FOR ALL THE DIFFERENT COLORS I DRESS THE WONDER. TIGHTLINES, BE WELL! FISH ON!

These hold their finish better than any other I've used and are such a great price! I've been using the 4mm size for clousers and I love them. They are made in a way that they secure to the hook very well without a ton of thread. Another great Allen product.

Before I found Allen fly fishing, I would pay $4 for packs of 10 of lead barbell eyes. Sure, they were a bit heavier, but they got all dented up around rocks. Now I get over twice as much for the price, the finish looks good and it is durable. great value here

Smallest sizes have clean construction and perfect weight for small streamers. None better, and certainly no cheaper source.

Good eyes, great finish. Not all the pupils are totally center, but then I'm not fussed, and I'm sure the fish aren't! Great price. I use tons of these and am very happy to find Allen. Great to see they do larger sizes as well!

First time used. Look great.

A standard barbell eye, but very well finished (shiny)..
