    I found these while cleaning up my father-in-laws basement. These are 2 unopened packages of Winchester #6 bait hooks with 6 hooks each. Winchester manufactured fishing equipment from 1920 to 1930. These hooks are a minimum of 82 years old no rust. Until finding and researching these I was clueless about Winchester ever manufacturing fishing tackle, rods and reels. I just wanted to share them as they are now in my gun case along with my Winchester rifles.

      I would appreciate any information about Winchester getting into manufacturing fishing equipment. Especially any additional info about their hooks.
