The latest stick-bait from Halco, the 85g Slidog 150 is a sinking stick-bait that has a sliding action as it drops down through the water column (to a maximum of 20 metres). It is a solid lure that will take the punishment dished out by toothy critters, thanks to reinforced sidewalls. The hardware includes Halco’s own tough split rings and Mustad in-line 7/0 hooks. There are eight colour combos to choose from.
