Charter Grade Slider: 1.5oz - 5inch

Capt. Mike Hogan hits the shorelines of Cape Cod for a quick fishing session before heading to the office. Working shoreline pinch points that funnel baitfish, he picks up a few schoolie stripers on the Hogy Charter Grade Slider.

Capt. Mike Hogan shares his favorite technique for covering lots of water quickly using the Walk & Gun method pair with our 5inch Charter Grade Slider. This technique is extremely effective when fish are scattered over a large area, holding fish and bait.

Capt. Ross Gallagher hits the Caloosahatchee River at sunrise casting for snook around heavy structure using the Hogy Charter Grade Slider. In this video we show techniques for casting large plugs around heavy structure and current.

We (as an industry and anglers collectively) are receiving new data indicating how damaging two hooks can be on a lure for catch-and-release fishing. As a result, we’re making big changes in on the hook front as we launch our # Hogy Hook 1 platform. Here, you’ll find an inside look on how and why we design lures

A Deep Look at Hooks and Survival Rates of Striped Bass: Here at Hogy and Salty Cape, we have been thinking about the ways we can better contribute to conservation of these awesome fish we chase each year. At Hogy, we have committed huge resources for a small company like ours to research and develop lures that kick ass.

First, let’s decompose (one) hook vs (two) hooks in performance terms: One Hook Pros: Efficiency: Easier and faster to release fish, thereby increasing lure time in the water. Improved Action: When rigged properly, or designed for one hook, many lures perform better with a single hook with less hardware to encumber the action.

Weight and Balance: Hook size can affect the weight and balance of a lure, potentially altering its action. Larger hooks might weigh down a lure, changing its swimming pattern, while smaller hooks might allow for a more natural presentation. Optimal swimming the action of the lure.
