Missile Ikes Flip Out Jig 3/8oz California Love

The Missile Baits Ikes Flip Out Jig is a full-size flipping jig designed by B.A.S.S. Elite Series pros John Crews and Michael Iaconelli for anglers who need a heavier, more robust option when fishing thick cover. Unlike lighter alternatives, this jig pairs a premium extra-stout hook with a weight-forward design balanced on the hook shank—the same engineering that made the Mini Flip Jig legendary, now scaled up for bigger fish and demanding applications. Whether you're pitching matted vegetation, scattered hydrilla, wood structure, laydowns, or dock pilings, the Ikes Flip Out delivers a natural fall through cover and tracks true even when you're throwing heavy line or bulky trailers.

The 3/8 oz California Love variant gives you a versatile middle-ground weight that handles shallow to moderate-depth presentations without wallowing on the drop. The extra-stout hook design means you can confidently set the hook hard and wrestle larger bass out of the thickest stuff without worrying about bending or breaking. This is a workhorse jig for serious flipping anglers who've upgraded from lighter jigs and want a tool built to match their technique and ambition.

You get one jig per pack—enough to have a go-to option in your flipping lineup. Pair it with your choice of trailer and Texas-rigged craw, and you've got a proven pattern for high-percentage cover fishing.
