Description

The Hogy Protail Paddle Classic isn’t just another swimbait—it’s a bluefin hunter. Designed within Hogy’s Universal platform, it’s built to take on tarpon to 200lbs inshore and tuna to 200lbs offshore. This bait has a tuna resume a mile long, with a high-vibration swim that fires up even the wariest bluefin, pulling them in for a crushing strike.

    Versatile Bait

    From bouncing on the bottom for shallow water lings/reds to casting for tuna/yellowtail this swimbait catches them all. The only downfall is that they're a softbait. So too pricey to use in certain areas where triggerfish are attacking your baits before the cabrilla or jacks can get to them. But besides that, they will catch almost anything from the Gulf of California to the Channel Islands. And for a softbait, they are very resilient. Was able to get 3 large wsb and countless sandbass, calicos, and spotties on the same bait. Video shows a wsb that inhaled this bait while slow rolling through its feeding grounds. And yes, it was cast again to catch another.

    Killer Plastic for Black and White Sea Bass

    Just drop and pop and were hanging giant bsb and wsb. These 6.5 inch from 3-6 ozs were working just as well as bait and slow pitch jigs. I would say at times they were working much better. One day the black sea bass were only annihilating these plastics and would not touch anything else. Ended up with my pb wsb on the final day of my trip. Photo attached.

    PS - Also included a pic of my smaller 42# fish to show you how they were inhaling these plastics.
