Dominion Tackle Co.

Dominion Tackle Co.  -  Owen A. Jones founded a small fishing tackle shop in Toronto's east end in 1925. Located at 2107 Danforth Avenue, this store was the beginning of what would become the Toronto & Dominion Tackle Co.
Jones, known locally as an avid fisherman, started his business modestly. Over time, the company grew and became well-known, particularly after relocating to Oro Station.
Dominion Tackle specialized in manufacturing metal fishing lures. They were especially noted for their range of metal baits, including those designed for ice fishing. These metal decoys became a significant part of their product line.
