Strike King Baby Squadron Swimbait Head 3/16oz 3ct Green Pumpkin
The Strike King Baby Squadron Swimbait Head is a versatile jig head built for anglers who want reliable performance when rigging hollow-body swimbaits, soft plastics, and swimming-tail baits. Each pack contains three 3/16 oz heads in Green Pumpkin—a proven color that works year-round in fresh water. The wide-gap design and chemically sharpened black nickel hook give you solid hookup geometry and durability through repeated casts and strikes.
These heads pair well with Strike King swimbaits like the Shadalicious, Blade Minnow, and Glass Minnow, or you can match them to your favorite soft-plastic swimmers. Whether you're fishing shallow grass, laydowns, or open water, the 3/16 oz weight sits in that goldilocks zone—heavy enough to cast and work efficiently, light enough to keep the bait moving naturally in moderate cover.
Green Pumpkin is a go-to color in most conditions. It's dark enough to stand out in stained water and low light, yet natural enough to fool bass in clear conditions. Keep a pack in your tackle box and you'll have a trusted foundation for swimbait fishing any time of year.

Frequently Asked Questions
What swimbaits and soft plastics work with the Baby Squadron head?
The wide-gap design is compatible with hollow-body swimbaits, grubs, and swimming-tail baits. Strike King options like the Shadalicious, Blade Minnow, Glass Minnow, and RageTail Rage Grub are all proven matches, and you can rig other brands' soft plastics that fit the gap as well.
Is 3/16 oz heavy enough for distance casting?
The 3/16 oz weight provides a good balance for most freshwater scenarios—it casts far enough for most presentations while keeping the bait working at natural speeds in moderate cover. For heavier cover or deeper water, you may want a larger head size.
What's the hook quality like?
The hook is black nickel plated with a chemically sharpened point, designed to penetrate reliably on the strike and withstand repeated casts and fish contact.
How many heads are in a pack?
Each pack contains 3 heads, giving you enough to rig multiple baits or replace heads if they get damaged.
