TheHogy Orginal Softbaitsare designed to be fished in a variety of different ways, whether texas rigged, nose hooked, rigged on a jighead, etc. They are soft enough to provide for some serious tail kicking action yet strong and solid enough to withstand abuse. A rigging channel is cut into the belly of the bait, providing for ease of rigging while a scale-like pattern provides for a little extra vibration in the water. Each bait is neutrally buoyant, allowing it to be worked like a subsurface topwater with the occasional breach of the surface, on a lightly weighted or unweighted texas rig hook.

The 14" is the biggest and baddest in the Hogy Original Softbaits, imitating large profiled bait such as eels and large bunker. Its a hard to beat option when the bait is big and the fish are looking for something that moves in a natural way.
