Description

OG Swimmer: Shallow-lipped swimming plugs, often referred to as Finnish Swimmers, have been a staple among anglers for generations. These lures are distinguished by their small lip, which allows them to navigate near the water's surface. This characteristic makes them particularly suited for shallow waters or areas with submerged structures where deeper diving lures might become entangled. The design of the small lip is not just about depth control; it also imparts a unique wobbling action to the lure as it moves through the water. This motion mimics the erratic swimming patterns of injured baitfish, an effective trigger for predatory fish. The Finnish Swimmer's combination of surface-skimming ability and lifelike action offers anglers a versatile tool for targeting a wide range of fish species in various conditions. Our Finnish Swimmer combines traditional design with modern enhancements to provide anglers with a reliable, high-performance lure that excels in various fishing conditions. Whether you're targeting striped bass, bluefish, or other predatory species, the Finnish Swimmer is your go-to lure for both inshore and offshore fishing adventures.

Field Notes

Use this shallow-lipped swimmer in skinny water or over submerged structure where a deeper diver would snag. It is designed to wobble and imitate an injured baitfish, making it effective with a steady retrieve or slight pauses around feeding predators.

Pros

  • Shallow-running design helps avoid snags
  • Lifelike wobbling swimming action
  • Versatile for inshore and offshore predators

Cons

  • Not ideal when fish are holding deep
  • May be too large for smaller baitfish situations

OG Swimmer Good looking lure, like the fact that it's got the back tag for ease of release! Can't wait to get on the water to use it!

essential striper gear grabbed two of these and had a chance to throw one last weekend for some striper. with a steady retrieve, these have an unbelievable swim action. had success with the treble hook and a single inline hook. i even caught fish trolling this lure. mine did have an eye fall off in the first time out but thats not a huge deal. ill be keeping one or two of these in my striper kit at all times. would recommend!

Charter grade OG swimmer I haven’t had a chance to use my new lure yet but it, as with all the other lures and gear that I have purchased from Hogy, is a high quality lure with top quality components, hooks, teasers etc. I will definitely be buying from Hogy again in the near future. I would recommend Hogy products.
