      Big snapper!

      On my first attempt using the Hooc bait, I caught one of my biggest snapper of this summer! Super easy to use.

      Really enjoyed testing this bait out over the Easter break. The great thing is it works & we were easily catching bluecod off it. Not only does it work, but best result is not having to contend with smelly & messy squid in the boat!!’.
      Top work Hooc,…..will recommend your product to other fishing mates!

      Big Blue Cod Love It!

      Used HOOC blue cod fishing in the Pelorus Sound and caught half a dozen monster blue cod in a short space of time. The biggest was 44cm!
      No stinky squid hands and a clean boat afterwards is a bonus.

      Good bait for the kaipara harbour

      Bit strange at first to what we are used to use we caught our feed just under a hour , but saying that, you can't promise anything when you go fishing, but every little thing helps our chances, time will tell

      It worked!

      Was slightly skeptical but it worked well. Loved that there was no stinky squid bait mess and we had no shortage of bites (and fish landed). I’m converted and will never use squid bait again.
