Fresh Techniques From Capt. Mike Hogan
In this new Salty Cape shoot I joined Diogo from Gorilla Tactics Charters to chase late season bonito on topwater. Feeds were quick and the fish were a little finicky, but nothing beats watching them crush plugs on the surface.

Hogy Dogwalker Topwaters
The Dog Walker shines in calm to moderately choppy water—particularly during low-light conditions like dawn, dusk, or overcast days. It’s a go-to inshore lure around structure like docks, rocks, and estuary mouths, and it produces best when fish are feeding near the surface.

Hogy Epoxy Jig Lure®
The EPOXY JIG™ Lure features a vivid scale finish core surrounded by a double thick translucent coat for excellent durability and natural refraction of light. The EPOXY JIG™ lure's light weight to length ratio produce the perfect balance of size, weight and casting distance, making them a perfect option for surface blitzes.

Hogy Storage Systems
We love tackle storage systems at Hogy. Over the years we have moved away from traditional tackle boxes and toward roll-up tackle bags. There are no broken hinges, spilled boxes and they are easy to store and clean out. Our tackle bags are designed with ergonomics in mind. Each tackle bag is self-closing and comes in multiple colors for coded tackle storage.

Sand Eel Jigs
The Sand Eel Vertical Jig is designed to be the ultimate imitator of one of the ocean's most prolific baitfish, the sand eel, a favorite prey for a multitude of predatory species including tuna and striped bass. With its slender, uniform design, this jig is not just for casting; it excels in vertical jigging, offering a versatile approach to deep-water fishing.
