The Original Perch Eye™ – 3/4” Finesse Fishing Plastic
Multi-Species Finesse Plastic Designed for Tungsten Jig Tipping
In 2018, we introduced The Original Perch Eye™, a purpose-built finesse plastic created specifically for tungsten jig tipping and highly pressured panfish situations.
Before imitators entered the market, The Original Perch Eye™ set the benchmark for realistic perch-eye style plastics. What started as a specialized solution for tough bites quickly became one of the most trusted and best-selling finesse plastics among serious anglers.
If you’re searching for a small plastic that consistently triggers strikes from pressured fish, The Original Perch Eye™ was designed for exactly that.
Why The Original Perch Eye™ Outperforms Other Fishing Plastics
Fishing success often comes down to subtle presentation. When fish are pressured, they begin to key in on the smallest details — profile, realism, scent, and hold time.
The Original Perch Eye™ was engineered around those exact triggers.
Key Design Features
• Precision 3D eye profile
• Realistic eyeball circumference and shape
• Natural forage-inspired color patterns
• Compact 3/4” finesse profile (including entrails)
• Designed specifically for tungsten jig tipping
• Infused with proprietary RMX2 scent technology
Unlike standard soft plastics, The Original Perch Eye™ mimics one of nature’s most powerful feeding triggers — soft tissue and forage eyes.
That subtle realism can turn follows into strikes when fish refuse everything else.
Designed for Tungsten Jig Tipping — PRO TIP
Tungsten jigs have become the go-to presentation for serious ice anglers around the world. Pairing the right plastic with your tungsten jig is critical.
The Original Perch Eye™ was designed with that exact presentation in mind.
Its compact finesse profile provides:
• Balanced jig action
• Natural horizontal presentation
• Increased visibility on sonar
• Improved hook-up ratios
• Extended hold time on light bites
For maximum durability, apply a small dab of super glue to the hook before threading on The Original Perch Eye™. This secures the plastic and allows it to withstand multiple fish without constant re-rigging.
Target Species
The Original Perch Eye™ consistently produces for a wide range of freshwater species:
• Crappie
• Bluegill
• Yellow Perch
• Trout
• Walleye
Whether you’re fishing shallow weed flats or deep basin schools, this finesse plastic is designed to trigger strikes when conditions get tough.
RMX2 Scent Technology
Each bait is infused with proprietary RMX2 scent technology, formulated to disperse naturally in cold water.
The subtle scent results:
• Attract fish from greater distances
• Increase hold time after the strike
• Improve hook-up success on light bites
When panfish are neutral or pressured, scent can be the difference between missed opportunities and landed fish.
