Tube Jig Head

TG Tube Jig Heads Unpainted

$4.99

The Strike King Tour Grade Tube Jig Head features a weight forward design and a 60-degree black nickel Gamakatsu round bend hook, perfectly made for tubes and hollow bodied swimbaits. The long, tube-shaped jig head with the line eye extending at a 60-degree angle creates the erratic fall key to catching big fish on tubes. Easy to rig: simply insert the jig head into the hollow tube and push forward until the eye of the jig pokes through the plastic.

Coffee Tube

COFFEE FAT TUBE 2.75"

$5.99

Like you, big bass love the smell of coffee in the morning. That makes the Strike King® Coffee Fat Tube a natural choice when the fish need a wake-up call. Flavorful as ever, the Fat Tube has a shorter length than the top-selling original, while the diameter remains the same – so there's plenty of "meat" to entice hungry bass, but now you can finesse 'em! Great for smallmouth, as well as cold-front spots and largemouths. These tasty baits are enhanced with real coffee bean granules and coffee bean oil, which exudes an earthy tinge and a naturally strong scent/taste that big bass are eager to slurp on. Not only does the coffee essence encourage fish to hold the bite longer, it also works to mask human scents. Salt-impregnated for extra flavor.

They are salt impregnated too! The 3-1/2'' Coffee Tube has a hollow head and is most effective when rigged with an internal tube jighead for dragging, jigging, or fishing structures with the hook exposed.
