Hogy Lures 2 oz (4.5") Original Epoxy Jig® - Single In-Line Hook
Heavy-Duty Casting Jig for Heavy Currents, Big Winds, Striped Bass & False Albacore
When you need to throw long casts into heavy crosswinds or cut through fast-moving tidal currents like the Cape Cod Canal, the Hogy Lures 2 oz (4.5") Epoxy Jig is your go-to heavy-hitter. Designed to match larger forage like adult sand eels, herring, river herring, and menhaden, this 2 oz casting jig combines maximum distance with an irresistible, life-like action.
Pre-rigged with a heavy-duty single in-line hook, this model provides superior holding power on big fish, dramatically reduces the risk of gut-hooking, and makes catch-and-release quick and safe.
Key Features & Performance
-
Pre-Rigged Single In-Line Hook: Heavy-duty single hook offers incredible strength, prevents fish from getting leverage to throw the hook, and allows for clean, fast releases.
-
Maximum Casting Distance: At 2 oz, this compact 4.5-inch lure casts like a rocket through headwinds and reaches surface-feeding fish in deep or fast water.
-
3D Refractive Depth Finish: Clear epoxy shell over holographic inner foil reflects sunlight from all angles, mimicking the translucent sheen of live bait.
-
Shatterproof Epoxy Construction: Heavy-duty through-wire frame protected by a rock-hard epoxy coating that resists chips, teeth marks, and collisions with Canal rocks.
-
Versatile Swimming Action: Skips frantically on top during high-speed retrieves or flutters horizontally on the fall when paused in deep water.

Cape Cod Canal Local Angler Tip
"The 2 oz (4.5") Epoxy Jig with an in-line single hook is built for heavy water conditions. In strong Canal tides or offshore rips, cast upstream at a 45-degree angle, let it sink toward the strike zone, and work it back with sharp rod twitches. When targeting giant Stripers or hard-fighting Albies, the single in-line hook gives you far better leverage to turn big fish without unhooking or damaging them."
