mikechell 0 Report post Posted December 31, 2015 +1 on Adam's comment. I NEVER find deals like that. I stop at yard sales all the time, and usually the only things available are old Zebcos. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JSzymczyk 0 Report post Posted December 31, 2015 That's fairly incredible... those ones in the clear plastic boxes are actually Eagle Claw model 59 and 57 hooks. In 2009 I bought a huge box of these, other models too and many other sizes. They were in those clear boxes and I sold off almost all of what I had to folks on this forum- at the time I was fairly sure they were Mustads but I found out after the fact they were Eagle Claw fly hooks. The amazing part is the written words "DRY" and "WET" on those labels is absolutely 100% my handwriting! Hope you got them for a good price! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Report post Posted January 3, 2016 That's weird as I gave all the ones I bought from you to my wifes school for their fly tying club. When I saw them at the tag sale I figured hey GREAT price. Nice to know the info on them - but a guy over at Tackle underground is selling off his Dad's jig making business and the bulk box's have a similar style date stampled on them. Did you ever try tying on any of them??? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
