Great bottles, nice display with what is that 5 wagtails. License plates i also like. Great pictures everyone. Here is Creek chub pikie 5502, box is original but a little beat up lure looks never used.

I have a couple. One is a wagtail deluxe. That's how I recognized them. Great collection.

They say some lures were made to catch fish, while others were made to catch fishermen. Im foulhooked... those antique lures certainly caught my eye. Ouch! Lol!

Forum started out about bottles and is now lures. That's the old classic bait and switch. We're in reel trouble when that happens. Kind of fishy too.

Love the lures. I grew up fishing with my father, and still have all his old lures dating back to the 1950s. I still do trolling with my kayak just for fun. I release everything, and what doesn't survive gets eaten by the Bald Eagles.

Found these today in a creek I haven’t walked in ages

I've recently been adding to my vintage and not so vintage fishing lure collection, they seam to fit well with my bottle shelves.....lol

I believe I discern a theme there: motoring products for both the tow rig and the boat, lures to cast, and beverages to quaff when the fish aren't biting during sunny midday (and earlier and later).

One could argue that lawnmower oil and auto polish both buck the leisure day scenario; but then I do note the charcoal lighter for capping a "honey do" day with a nice charred steak, or grilled bass, no doubt accompanied with some more of those refreshing drinks. Damn! I've already worked up an appetite and thirst just reading this thread!

In all seriousness, I do like your assortment and find myself especially fond of the graphic label of that "Commando" can. (I'm the grandson of a Great War vet, the son of a World War Two combat veteran and nephew of several other WW2 vets including one German Wehrmacht vet, all of whom survived the war but have since passed on, may they rest in peace.)
