Capt. Mike shows us two techniques for targeting bluefin tuna off of Cape Cod on spinning gear. The Hogy Harness Jigs are carefully balanced to ensure a natural presentation whether they are straight retrieved or fished with a cast and drop retrieve. The Hogy Sliders are perfect to cast on heavy spinning setups and come tuna rigged right out of the package.

Capt. Mike Hogan and Eric Harrison head East of Chatham searching for tuna feeding on sand eels. When fish are suspended mid-water and near the bottom grubbing on sand eels, the Hogy Sand Eel Jig is an excellent presentation for getting deep quickly and covering the water column.

Capt. Mike from Salty Cape and Hogy Lures loads up his 28' Contender and steams South of MV in anticipation of fishing some of the warmer water pushing into the area. With fish holding in deeper water and feeding on sand eels, the name of the game was jigging for yellowfin and bluefin tuna.

Capt. Mike Hogan and the Hogy Crew head out to Regal Sword, a well-known fishing spot East of Chatham, to target giant Bluefin Tuna on the Hogy Harness Jig lures. There are two main methods when searching for tuna offshore; staying with life (whales bubble feeding, top water tuna, bait on the surface, bird activity) and the search and drop technique, which involves doing a search pattern with your fish finder looking for targets.

We head to Venice Louisiana to fish with Journey South Outfitters, heading offshore in search of Yellowfin and Blackfin tuna on casting jigs.

Capt. Mike takes a moment to showcase the features and fishablity of the 4oz Tuna Rigged Epoxy Jig®. The Tuna Epoxy Jig excels at a imitating a variety of oceanic baitfish like large sand eels, half beaks, butterfish and herring.
