Missile Mini Swim Jig 5/16oz Brewgill
The Missile Mini Swim Jig in 5/16oz Brewgill is a compact, versatile casting jig designed for anglers who want to cover water and trigger bites in shallow to moderate depths. Built on a VMC 30-degree vertical line tie hook with a 3/0 size, this jig combines a streamlined head with a finely cut skirt and bold 3D eyes that give bass a clear target. The keeled head design helps the jig track true and maintain a natural swimming motion on the retrieve—ideal for working around cover, grass, and structure without excessive snagging.
Whether you're flipping into heavy vegetation, swimming through open water, or probing rocky drops, the 5/16oz weight strikes a practical balance between castability and rapid descent. The Brewgill color brings a natural, translucent pattern that imitates both crawfish and baitfish, making it a reliable choice across a range of water conditions. The super spike keeper holds your soft plastic trailer securely on the hook throughout the fight, so you can focus on landing fish instead of managing slippage.
This jig is at home in a tournament bag or a dedicated bass box—a no-frills workhorse that performs in clear water and stained conditions alike. Pair it with your favorite creature bait, chunk-style trailer, or shad-profile plastic, and you'll have a presentation ready for nearly any shallow-water bass scenario.
