About this piece
Ecogear's Kijihata Hog is a soft-plastic creature bait designed to imitate crustaceans like shrimp and crabs, which are primary forage for grouper species. Its unique arm design reduces air resistance during casting for improved distance, and underwater it minimizes drag and water bite while providing reliable bottom contact. The arms flutter on the retrieve, creating a strong attraction wave even for pressured bottomfish.
