Hogy 6" 4 oz Tuna Rigged Epoxy Jig™
Targeting surface-blitzing pelagics on micro to medium forage requires an extreme combination of long-distance casting power, natural light refraction, and heavy-duty durability. The Hogy 4oz (6inch) Tuna Rigged Epoxy Jig scales up our legendary resin design to create an unmatched casting lure for Bluefin and Yellowfin Tuna.
Built around a high-density metal core encased in a double-thick, translucent resin body, this 4 oz lure casts like a bullet into offshore winds while maintaining a lighter weight-to-length ratio than traditional lead or zinc jigs. That unique density balance allows it to land softly and hover longer in the upper water column—giving spooky, boat-shy tuna extra time to strike before it sinks past the feeding zone.
Key Features
-
Double-Thick Refractive Epoxy Coating: Encases a vibrant scale finish that refracts light naturally instead of harsh metal reflections, creating a lifelike shimmer indistinguishable from real baitfish.
-
Tuna-Grade Hardware: Pre-rigged for high-impact pelagic battles with heavy-duty split rings and a razor-sharp 2/0 VMC Tropic Star Tuna Treble Hook.
-
Aerodynamic Long-Distance Casting: The 4 oz weight-forward profile punches through heavy ocean breezes to reach far-off feeds without pushing fish down with a heavy splash.
-
Natural Hover & Flutter Action: The lightweight resin shell slows the sink rate, allowing the lure to hover tantalizingly in the strike zone on the pause or slow retrieve.
-
Versatile Forage Match: Slender 6-inch silhouette accurately replicates larger oceanic baitfish, including halfbeaks, sand eels, herring, butterfish, and chub mackerel.
-
Rugged Solid Core: Engineered with a heavy-duty metal frame and durable resin outer shell that resists toothy hits and crushing jaw pressure.

Pro Tip for Anglers
When Bluefin Tuna are keyed on small bait in open water, position the boat upwind of the school. Cast the 4 oz Epoxy Jig past the busting fish and bring it back with a steady, fast-paced retrieve mixed with subtle rod twitches. If fish track the lure without committing, kill the retrieve for 1–2 seconds—the lure's natural hover-and-flutter drop often triggers instant reaction strikes from trailing tuna!
