Antique store find

[Fixit]

Found a few packs of hoochies at the antique/surplus store in Coombs the other day, in the old style nikka industries Ltd packaging!
Just so happen to be in my favourite colour too!

I love how the eyes are hand painted and none are the same. I hear the vintage ones catch waaaay better then the modern stuff

did I mention they were 5$ a pack of 10?

Just looking at an old package of Hootchies from YO COMMERCIAL FISHING TACKLE Inc ... "Made and Sold Exclusive for use in Commercial Fisheries Only " is printed right on the package !!

The Sunny Shores Marina Store in Sooke also has some ancient old stock packaged commercial hootchies available at a good price.

Were they in the old army surplus store?

Any decent hootchie packs still there or was that it?

That was it. There was a 1ft x1ft box of loose misc hoochies but nothing exciting
