Bluefin Tuna on Spinning Gear | Hogy Lures

In this video, Capt. Mike Hogan heads east off of Cape Cod targeting bluefin tuna on spinning gear. Targeting bluefin on spinning gear is exhilarating! It truly allows you to feel the raw power that these fish possess. The Hogy Harness Jigs and Hogy Sliders were the ticket to staying under the birds and on the tuna!

An ongoing battle fishing East of Chatham!

Fishing them on the Spinning gear looks so damn fun as opposed to regular conventional set ups. It seems more hands on and direct contact with the lure and fish. 😃❤️

What length fluro leader if you were using a fg knot on my spinning outfit?

[@danielebedulli795]

I fish tuna in kenya. When a catched tuna arrive under the boat and start to spin, almoust the time it turned in an anticlockwise direction. Have u observed the same? Thank

[@SaltyCape]

Yes, we refer to this as the "death spiral".

[@peterlavin5970]

Headed to the claw this week (running out of Narragansett) and trolling all HOGY gear… any suggestions?

[@SaltyCape]

Look for life! If you're marking fish on the bottom, don't hesitate to drop a jig down.

[@hectortoston]

Great video. How long is the wind on leader?

[@SaltyCape]

About a 10' leader.

[@hectortoston]

How many wraps of the wind on leader you do in the loop to loop connection?

[@thearyfishing04]

What’s the link for that rod?

[@SaltyCape]

This exact model of Shimano rods has been discontinued.

[@MrGT500]

how do you avoid birds on the cast? not only does it waste time and the shot, but i dont want to be out there hurting them either.

[@SaltyCape]

To avoid birds, opt for a fast sinking lure. The Hogy Charter Grade Slider has a fast sink rate, allowing it to get under the birds before they can get a swipe at it. When casting try to place your cast on the perimeter of a pile of birds, rather than in the middle. With the amount of birds off of Cape Cod it is inevitable to avoid them 100% of the time, but with these tips you can definitely reduce the likelihood of hooking a bird.

Amount of whales dolphins and and tuna this past weekend was insane absolutely beautiful don't get calm like that all too often

[@SaltyCape]

The amount of life offshore of Cape Cod is amazing!
