Missile Ikes Flip Out Jig 3/8oz Bruiser

The Missile Baits Ikes Flip Out Jig in 3/8oz Bruiser is a full-size flipping jig designed for anglers targeting bass in heavy cover. Co-engineered by B.A.S.S. Elite Series pros John Crews and Michael Iaconelli, this jig steps up from the Mini Flip version with a heavier profile and an extra-stout hook built to handle big fish and the demanding gear required for serious flipping situations. Whether you're working thick vegetation, scattered grass, submerged wood, laydowns, or dock structures, this jig delivers the durability and performance you need when conditions demand a more robust approach.

The weight-forward design is balanced around the hook shank—the same proven geometry as the original Mini Flip—which keeps the jig falling naturally and threading cleanly through dense cover. That balance matters when you're flipping into gnarly spots where a poorly designed jig hangs up or spins sideways. The Bruiser profile cuts through vegetation without fouling, and the stout hook inspires confidence when you're locked into a heavy cover grind where hook flex or breakage would cost you bites.

This is a workhorse jig for flipping tournaments, serious bass fishing, or any day when you need an all-around option that won't let you down in the nastiest conditions your local lake throws at you. One jig per pack.
