Missile Ike's Mini Flip Jig 3/8 Sunfish IPA

The Missile Ike's Mini Flip Jig in 3/8 oz is a compact, purpose-built flipping jig designed to punch through dense cover and tight spots where bigger lures can't reach. Developed by Mike Iaconelli and John Crews, this finesse jig combines a balanced head design with a streamlined profile to excel in heavy grass, brush, and wood—exactly where cautious bass hide. The Sunfish IPA color delivers a natural, high-visibility profile that triggers bites in stained or shallow water conditions.

What makes the Mini Flip stand out is its thoughtful engineering: the weight is centered around the hook shank for true balance, so it falls naturally and stays oriented perfectly as it works through cover. That precision balance, paired with a carefully angled weed guard, lets you fish the nastiest layups and dense mats without constant snagging. You get a jig that slides in cleanly and comes back out reliably—no excessive hardware or bulk getting in the way.

This is finesse flipping for anglers who want a proven design from pros who fish it for a living. At 3/8 oz, it's light enough for sensitive presentations in shallow water or calm conditions, yet heavy enough to reach key depth zones and punch through moderate cover. Whether you're working cypress knees, laydowns, or matted vegetation, the Mini Flip's compact size and balanced design make it a go-to choice for bass that demand a smaller profile.
