The Hogy Needlefish is a classic design crafted with premium plastic, carefully balanced for deadly action. Needlefish-style lures are a tried-and-true method that many surf anglers swear by. These slender lures excel at mimicking eels, a favorite prey of striped bass. When cast from the surf, their streamlined design allows them to cut through the wind for long casts. Their effectiveness lies in their ability to mimic subtle movements of a real eel.
