Hogy Lures 1.25 oz (4") Original Epoxy Jig®
The Ultimate Castable Match-the-Bait Jig for Stripers, Albies, Bonito & Blues
The Hogy Lures 1.25 oz (4") Epoxy Jig is engineered to imitate mid-sized saltwater forage like sand eels, peanut bunker, silversides, and butterfish. Built with a solid lead core enveloped in a thick, glass-like epoxy shell, this lure delivers maximum casting distance, ultra-realistic light refraction, and long-lasting durability against toothy pelagics and rough bottom structure.
Weighing 1.25 oz at a compact 4-inch length, it punches through heavy coastal winds and cuts through fast-moving tidal currents while remaining right in the strike zone.
Key Features & Performance
-
Ultra-Realistic 3D Depth: Clear epoxy coating over a foil core creates life-like refractions that trigger non-stop reaction strikes in clear water.
-
Long-Casting Design: Heavy 1.25 oz weight in a sleek 4-inch profile casts like a bullet into onshore breezes and over breaking surface schools.
-
Durable Construction: Through-wire system protected by a shatterproof epoxy finish that outlasts traditional painted metal lures.
-
Dynamic Action: Skips frantically on a fast surface retrieve, swims naturally on a steady reel, and flutters enticingly on the fall during a pause.
-
Corrosion-Resistant Hardware: Pre-rigged with heavy-duty saltwater split rings and premium hooks ready for hard-hitting gamefish.

Local Angler Tip from Canal Bait & Tackle
"The 1.25 oz Epoxy Jig is the ideal bridge size—heavy enough to reach breaking fish in strong canal currents and crosswinds, yet light enough to present a natural bait profile. Cast past active surface blitzes, keep your rod tip high, and burn it back along the top. If a fish boils and misses, immediately stall your reel for two seconds; the natural fluttering drop on this lure forces a commitment every time."
