Mustad Sears Carlise hooks size 2, fishing #24308

Ringed bronze construction gives these classic Carlise style hooks their distinctive warm, metallic glow. Produced under the product code 24308, this set of 16 hooks represents a time when Sears, Roebuck and Co. were the primary suppliers for reliable outdoor gear. Each size 2 hook measures approximately 1.5 inches (3.8 cm) in length and remains in unused condition, preserved perfectly in the original blue-and-white handy reusable bag. These were manufactured by Mustad in Norway, a detail proudly displayed on the vintage packaging label. The long, slender shank and sharp point of the Carlise pattern remain a staple for bait fishing, specifically engineered to hold nightcrawlers or minnows securely. Even the packaging reflects the era's utility, featuring a slide-to-close seal intended for repurposing as a leader or fly pouch.
