United StatesI love this lure. The walking action in the water makes for savage strikes, even by 14 inch stripers committing suicide by hitting it! It has 2 flaws, though, in my opinion. which is why I give it only four stars. First, it casts poorly if the wind is anywhere coming at the caster, cutting the range down markedly. I use an 11' surf rod and 30 lb blue braid which has great casting power and low drag in the air, but I have to switch to a different lure in even moderate winds to get the plug out there. Can you fix this but preserve the in-water action? The second problem is the price. Why is it $11.00 more than the same lure 1 size down? All your lures and jigs are on the expensive side, although the quality and performance are very high. But I cannot for the life of me see why this one costs that much more. 3-4 dollars more? Maybe. But not where this one is currently perched!
United StatesPast two years I have been using the lil doc lure and wanted to see how your dog walker compared to it. I tried it last week and it definitely has better action than any of the other dog walkers I’ve used. I fish quite a bit so I’m looking forward to using it when the big girls come back in the spring. Great lure and casts a mile. Can’t beat a hogy lure!
The 6” dog walker is perfection. Striper can’t resist them!
Love using this for the first time!
great lure! second cast a nice fat snook exploded on this thing. Can cast a mile too! Love it along with all the Hogy baits!
