Halco - Slidog 85 

A tasty new little size to the legendary Slidog stickbait range! An 85mm size has slid in under the previous 105 and has been getting absolutely smashed everywhere we’ve thrown it. From big trevally and monster tailor to snapper on the bottom. Most importantly the Slidog 85 has inherited the signature shimmy on the drop from its big brothers and sisters, making it simply irresistible.

 The action on the Slidog 85 is extremely easy to use:

• Straight wind at any speed and let the lure do all the work
• Stop and go with big or sharp sweeps for a more erratic movement
• Or just let it sink as it has an awesome side-to-side shimmy action on the drop making it great for any depth.

Specifics:

• Applications: Casting
• Length: 85mm, 3.3 Inches
• Weight: 15g

Techniques for Fishing: 

1. Topwater Retrieve: Use a steady retrieve with the Halco Slidog, keeping it on the water's surface to attract fish with its enticing swimming action.

2. Jerking Action: Incorporate occasional jerks during the retrieve to create a darting motion, simulating an injured or fleeing baitfish.

3. Variable Retrieval Speed: Experiment with different retrieval speeds. Sometimes a slow and steady retrieve works best, while at other times, a faster pace might trigger more aggressive strikes.

4. Pause and Twitch: Intermittently pause the retrieval, giving the Slidog a chance to suspend in the water. Add subtle twitches to imitate a wounded or struggling prey.

5. Target Structure: Cast near structures like rocks, docks, or vegetation where predatory fish might hide. The Halco Slidog's design makes it effective in these areas.

6. Adjust for Conditions: Tailor your approach based on the weather and water conditions. On calm days, a more subtle presentation might be effective, while choppy water may call for a more aggressive retrieve.

7: Experiment with Colors: Depending on the water clarity and light conditions, try different colors of the Halco Slidog to see which ones attract more attention from fish.

Always adapt your techniques based on the specific characteristics of the fishing environment and the behavior of the targeted fish species.
