Walleye 1

Sander vitreus, Yellow pikeperch, yellow pickerel

For those who are searching for the most realistic walleye eye, one of the best on the market, we think we have something to offer. Our Walleye 1 model was designed with help from taxidermy experts and can be suitable for commercial and competition projects. Having an oval blank pupil, outlined with a dark gray skirt, and a chatoyant iris blending from golden into black at the edge, this eye is true in shape, size and coloration. The eyes are cast from polymer materials (similar to acrylic). We use our own patented technology that gives them extreme hardness, chemical stability, and heat resistance. The eyes can be dry-cleaned, treated with organic solvents, and heated to 130 degrees Celsius (about 260 degrees Fahrenheit) for about 20 minutes. The iris and pupil are digitally printed, which allows us to create very complex images. The image is refracted by the strong lens in a special way, creating the unique effect of a real eye. On the back side of the eye, there is a ribbed plastic peg that helps position and set the eye on a mold. It can be easily removed if not needed.
