Strike King Announces Hog Father Jr. Glidebait

Strike King® is proud to unveil the Hog Father Jr, a 7-inch, slow-sinking glidebait designed for die-hard swimbait enthusiasts and serious anglers. Created in collaboration with Tater Hog Custom Lures, the Hog Father Jr. represents a perfect blend of innovative design, expert craftsmanship, and practicality, offering anglers a new level of performance on the water.

The Hog Father Jr. is inspired by Matt McBee’s original custom Hog Father, a lure that has been a best-seller for over 15 years. Known in the angling community as “Tater Hog,” McBee brings decades of swimbait expertise to this partnership. The Hog Father Jr. mirrors the action and effectiveness of the original Hog Father while incorporating advanced features to enhance performance and accessibility for anglers across a broader audience.

The Hog Father Jr. excels with its versatility, delivering consistent glide action across various retrieve speeds, whether slow and deliberate or medium fast. Built with swivel hook hangers, it reduces leverage during a fight, ensuring a better hookup-to-land ratio. Another standout feature is the selection of seven exclusive color options, bringing translucent designs and other unique finishes to the Hog Father series for the first time. Each lure is sold in a reusable foam tray, ideal for post-use storage.

The Hog Father Jr. will be available for $44.99. Whether you’re seasoned in swimbaits or just getting started, this lure combines trusted design elements with modern innovation to set a new standard in the fishing industry. Check out www.strikeking.com to learn more about the Hog Father Jr.
