Enjoyed that, thought your humour was excellent and the “one eyed Willy” was a great borrow from The Goonies👍

[@tomballard4794]

Since the guy is from kingston,he probably fished the hudson river and the roundout river. The tiny hooks are to catch bait fish. The trot line is for herring,also used for bait for strippers. So the small tackle box is used for bait fish. The large is for the hudson river,roundout river and ponds around Kingston.

The wooden Jitterbug is at least $20, I have several, new and old, my favorite top water lure

[@Bill-ks6ys]

That second box looks like the first box I bought myself when I was a young kid in the early 80’s

[@garymcintyre9000]

Those look like my old tackle boxes. I had all those lures and those tiny hooks were for perch.

[@frankk1251]

As a kid many years ago in Florida we used very small hooks to catch extremely small bluegill to uses as bait. Small hooks are used frequently by fly fisherman. I have tied size 22 flies and they do catch trout.

[@TheSmiths-j6m]

The Mirrolure in the third drawer was what looked like a 52M?, Most 52m's were sinkers. Great salt water lure for trout and red fish. Cost from $5.00-7.50 based on condition and which one it is.

[@buttercup8932]

I owned both of those, got the metal box from my grandpa and the plastic one I got as a birthday gift in the 80s

[@stillwater62]

The first tackle box that you thought wasn`t very exciting, was actually very exciting to a person that knew exactly what everything in there was and what it was used for. It is sad to see rare articles fall into the hands of people that don`t know what they are, don`t care what they are, and don`t appreciate what they have. Those spinnerbaits had real rubber skirts, that have been subjected to heat and time.

[@FloriDudes]

Yeah, pretty sad. The horror.

[@jeffyount3559]

@@FloriDudes The horror is watching you two MORONS trying to act smart.

[@scotte.6110]

That spinnerbait in the larger tackle box with the yellow skirt and two large diamond willow leaf blades... I use to have one like that. The orange collar on the wire, is to prevent weeds from getting around the ball bering swivel. It is a Strike King spinnerbait.... I would catch bass when I was a kid, out on Lake Conway in Orlando on it. I'd slow roll it in 15 to 20 feet of water in the winter, when the grass would die off. That chain had/has super clear water, so the grass would grow super deep.

[@FloriDudes]

Thanks for sharing that! We'd love to get on lake Conway one of these days. Maybe we'll bring that one along and give it a shot!

[@winstonrocco1981]

It’s called 38 special

[@w2504x4]

What I find most disturbing about this video is I'm a Florida native and that very well could have been my tackle box as a kid. I hate getting old.

[@OT5Productions]

Cool finds

[@tiptoeurchin]

I might be wrong but I think those baits with the little propellers are called spybaits.

[@karenholman7975]

the line with all the knots...put hook on ea place used to fish mackeral

[@jacknemo8021]

Probably old Harold Joel Lindquist, retired to CA (woodland hills). Late 70s -ish.

[@jacktaylor1030]

10:50 That's an original wooden Devils Horse by Smithwick lures, that might be worth some money there. I sure would like to have it in my collection?

[@TheSmiths-j6m]

some of those sell for $15.00

[@ddselvig]

Those tiny hooks look like they are dry fly hooks that flytyers use for tying midge style flies. When I was a kid I used that size hook for catching creek chubs to use for catfish bait.

[@anthonymorales842]

Those tiny hooks are for trout flies and at times those are even to big for the hatch. Some monster trout are caught on tiny hooks

[@andrewhart1826]

Cool video...

[@Nexadvenio]

I didn’t see anyone answer, but that first box was all things a commercial bait shop would use to catch and preserve live bait for resale. The line with multiple links in it would have had multiple hooks at once and was likely fished by hand without a rod. Basically you have his work box and his hobby box

[@FloriDudes]

Nice, we didn't think about it like that. We just assumed one was his northern box and the other was his Florida box, so to speak. That's a good explanation though. We appreciate the comment!

[@vintagerecordambassadeur4098]

Y’all know zero about old vintage baits do you

[@tunabestfish]

every fisherMAN knows

[@terryporche9059]

Knows nothing about vintage lure and what they have there. Possibility they get fish from fish market

[@whitetroutchannel]

@@terryporche9059 have to agree, theres things in that box might give me a shaky hand

[@TheBigdog2112]

tiny hooks used with tiny bread balls to catch wild shiners

[@shadowwolf9329]

The small hook could be a brim hook

[@JamesJones-cx5pk]

The Devil Horse was the original Whopper Plopper. Hula Poppers still work great. I've never been a Zara Spook fishermen but some people sware about "walking the dog".

[@jeffyount3559]

It must be rough going through these tackleboxes when the boxes are smarter than these two are.

[@bradhansen9011]

So I'm not the only one that thought this.

[@originalshadowfax]

Interesting, the first one just shows the huge difference between fishing in the US and the UK. Those"itty bitty" hooks aren't unusual over here. The biggest that would normally be used would be about a 8 or 6 and that would be for carp (40lb or so, pike, 40lb or so, or perhaps barbel (15lb) or chub, (8-9lb). For example we don't have the various catfish with the big mouths (apart from the Wels cats in a few lakes). Most of our coarse fish run up to 10lb and the majority of them are much less than that. Subtlety is used much more than in the US, hence the variety of floats (you call bobbers) in the UK. BTW before I get any grief from the UK, I'm generalising

[@ddselvig]

Your big plastic tacklebox was probably from the early 1980s.

[@jeffsanders5444]

first hooks probably for gills.

[@robertveith2571]

I have hooks that small for bluegill and fresh water trout here in west Virginia

[@peterolbrisch8970]

Those tiny hooks are for salmon eggs for trout, and carp. I use a size eight true turn panfish hook for everything else ( live bait ) as they are not as easy to be swallowed.

[@dannydecare2116]

The tiny fish hooks are dry fly hooks looks like size 14to18s and yes the make good hooks for minnows

[@danielerickson3391]

A jar of Paulzes salmon eggs

[@TheDatadump]

They don’t usually make ‘em like this anymore.

[@kennethward2621]

Dude that double jerk bait is weird as hell. Did you guys try it out?? This is my first video on this channel

[@FloriDudes]

We appreciate you watching! Are you talking about that gold and black one at 11:12? I forgot about it til now, but I want to take it out next time we go. I'll let you know how it goes. We have a video of the handful we used out of it here - kzbin.info/www/bejne/q3bEp5KXhsygl7M

Luhr Jenson were bought out by Rapala in 2003?

[@FloriDudes]

Really? That's interesting

[@rd350h1]

At 12:08 That's a Luhr Jensen J Plug. Great Salmon bait on Lake Michigan. The reason it doesn't have hooks is because it uses a hook harness that slides through a hole in the bait body.

[@markn5997]

The harness is 2 spots over. They work great on Lake Ontario, also. Wonder bread color.

[@anthonymorales842]

Kingston New York some serious good trout streams there thus the small hooks for flies

[@christophershelton1735]

The piece with the propellers is called a spy bait

Hey I was wondering if you would sell the “ribbed” lure

[@kiingiicon412]

That tackle box came from the Andy Griffith show.

[@FloriDudes]

Haha, maybe 😄

[@shadowwolf9329]

I would not be surprised if you have more than 100.00 dollars worth of fishing gear

[@georgesakellaropoulos8162]

A couple of those boxes of small hooks looked like they were in decent shape. People collect such things and they might be worth a little money.

[@FloriDudes]

We checked. They aren't worth much. We'll probably end up holding onto them for a while. Definitely not planning to use the older stuff.

[@CherylArnold-b6z]

Led me to think

[@ddselvig]

Those old metal tackleboxes command a good price on the antique market. I've seen them go for upwards of a $100. They probably go even more since the last time I looked. I bought one a couple years ago for $50 because it was the same one I had back in the 1960s. My dad backed over my original tacklebox when one of my ornery brothers put it behind the car. That metal tacklebox you have is just a larger version of my old tacklebox.

[@FloriDudes]

Really? Whoa, we appreciate you sharing that! And the memories :) We're probably going to end up holding onto them anyway, regardless of value. Whoever's kid(s) end up with them can decide what to do with it from there, haha.

[@stanleykrupinski441]

The large hook 🪝 are for catfish

[@johnsoper6931]

I have some vintage Lucky Louie lures from the 40's-50's that my dad had in the boxes that never hit the water. Not sure of the value of them.

[@FloriDudes]

Nice! Might be worth looking into. Start with eBay, should give you an idea.

[@davids11131113]

Those are fly tying hooks in the old box

[@LouWeZee.]

Wow got your money worth.

[@jonwyatt262]

Fish like trout or salmon feed on whatever is most plentiful. This may be flies almost too small to see by a human! But the fish can. Some flies tied on way smaller than those.

[@FloriDudes]

That's crazy to think about. Thanks for sharing that!

[@DarrellWefel-ts2kr]

Well I have the big Plano one it’s the exact color and everything mines just in a lot better shape

[@FloriDudes]

Yeah, you could tell these have been sitting in a garage or shed for a while. With some cleaning the Plano one would be a lot nicer.

[@Yak_bros_fishing]

@@FloriDudes yeah for sure. Pretty cool to see tho man. I haven’t seen another tackle box that I like more than it. The top for spinner/chatter baits even jigs and plastics is one of my favorite parts

[@FloriDudes]

@@Yak_bros_fishing Yeah, it's pretty neat.

[@CONEHEADDK]

@@FloriDudes DON'T do anything to them. "Restoring" is the best way to reduce the value of "anything". Contact a club for vintage angling stuff, or a auction house. Ruining historic rare things is a crime..

You guys.........the first box has some true treasure there. Check with the NY Game & Fish to learn more about the contents. Box # 2 has more tackle for larger fish. Also ask the G&F about this tackle too. You two must be mud fishers and have no idea what you've got.
