Strike King Baby Squadron Swimbait Head 18oz 3ct Blue Glimmer
The Strike King Baby Squadron Swimbait Head is a three-pack of jig heads built for anglers who want a reliable, versatile platform for soft-plastic swimbaits and grubs. At 18 ounces, this heavier option cuts through current and depths, making it useful for targeting bass and other gamefish in demanding conditions. The wide-gap, chemically sharpened black nickel hook holds soft plastics securely and pierces consistently, while the durable finish resists corrosion and handles repeated casts without degrading.
These heads excel when rigged with hollowbody swimbaits, paddle-tail grubs, and swimming minnow profiles—whether threaded internally for a sleek presentation or rigged externally for added bulk and water displacement. The 18-ounce weight makes them particularly effective in deeper water, faster current, or when you need a bait to stay in the strike zone longer. Three heads per pack give you enough to rig multiple combinations or replace hooks that bend or dull after contact with rocks, logs, or hard strikes.
If you're building custom swimbait setups or refreshing tired rigs, the Baby Squadron heads combine a proven hook design with enough mass to handle real fishing situations. Pair them with your preferred soft-plastic swimmers and adapt to changing water and conditions without overhauling your entire tackle box.

Frequently Asked Questions
What swimbaits and soft plastics work with these jig heads?
These heads are designed to work with hollowbody swimbaits, grubs, and swimming tail baits. You can rig them internally (threaded through the plastic) or externally for different presentations and profiles.
When should I use 18-ounce swimbait heads?
The 18-ounce weight is ideal for deeper water, faster current, or situations where you need the bait to drop quickly and stay in the strike zone longer. They're heavier than standard heads, so they sink faster and hold bottom better in moving water.
How many heads are in each pack?
This is a three-pack, giving you three jig heads per purchase.
