Overview

The Bitsy Bug Jig has a snagless/weedless head design helps prevent the jig from getting wedged in the rocky bottom. The Bitsy Bug also features an inverted line tie on top of the jig head to protect your line from getting chewed up by rocks and other obstructions.

Possibly the best cheap jig and great for BFSThis jig is a solid choice for bfs and medium action rods alike. Only complaint is that strike king should make a tungsten alternative with a hand tied skirt and maybe a wire keeper. It would sell 10x better even with the higher price

These are all the RageLike a lot of the reivews here, they Catch fish and very affordable, i like using Berkley gulp alive paddle shad trailers with these or 6th sense divine swim bait trailers in the 3" sizes. Small compact and affordable and even better they almost always are available. because of that I'll throw them in the nastiest cover but if I get snagged it's 2 bucks I lose not 8 or 10 bucks plus the trailer.

Bitsy fish catcherThese work great paired with yum Ned craws

Previous Feedback  

Comments: These things catch the hell out of fish. But for 30 cents more, buy the bitsy flip. They are definitely a little higher quality. In my experience, the hook is less likely to rust and definitely less likely to bend out. Both work good.

From: Zach: New kent Va 3/6/23

Comments: I started using these 20+ years ago; my uncle always had one of these tied on whether fun fishing or tournaments and i saw the power of the Bitsy. About 5 years ago i switched to the Flip Bug but both of these are a lot of bait for the buck. Yeah, the hooks can rust easier, the skirts are cheap and the week guard isn't always in line but who cares, they catch fish!!! You can put a better skirt on, the weed guard can be straightened out/trued, and who cares about the hook rusting?!?!? IDK what it is about these but the just flat out catch fish, and they don't cost $6 either, and I don't care if its a $7 Picasso or a $1 clearance at the dime-store........you toss a bait into a downed tree and there's a good chance of snagging/losing it, so why spend boocoo bucks when $2 does just as good(1.75 or less when on sale). my bitsy flips i put a 75 cent zman skirt on, paca chunk senior and I can do it all with it from swim to pitch to skip.

From: Jamie: Indiana 7/20/22

Comments: Picked these up for giggles because of the price. Now I always have one tied on, paired with a rage ned bug, it always gets bit when nothing else does.

From: Cameron : SC 3/6/22

Comments: These things are awesome with some modifications. First, the skirt comes pretty long so I trim it to right behind the hook. Then give it a "finesse cut." There are lots of tutorials on it if you don't know how. Once you do that you have a true finesse jig that measures up to the $5 ones.

From: Erich: New York 12/31/20

Comments: This year, I have a jig shortage due to limited inventory and the fact that my kids have started fishing jigs more. On the way to a week long camping/fishing trip, I managed to find some of these in 1/4oz in the green craw color and gave them to my oldest son figuring they would pair well with his M/F casting rod with 12lb test and that would free up the two 3/8oz arcky head jigs for my youngest son and myself to use (I have a couple 1/2oz too, but in clear water I generally prefer 3/8oz in the northeast). He never really fished a jig besides a chatterbait or swim jig, but once he got the hang of dragging it, he hooked what was easily at least a 4lb bass but unfortunately the knot broke as he pulled it halfway onto his kayak. He was really bummed he lost the fish and bait, but that was enough to give him confidence in a jig - I bought a few more on the way home. These make a great alternative to your typical finesse jigs but they actually offer one advantage - they pull up much less grass!

From: Unknown: North Adams, MA

Comments: I use the 1/4 mostly, but they are great! Finish holds up very nicely.

From: Jamie: 6/17/20

Comments: Decent jig it will get u bit but the hooks aren't the best I like dragging it or swimming it through grass when they are focusing on smaller bait caught a 8lber out of the grass on one and hook didn't bend out

From: Unknown - 7/11/18

Comments: I use these jigs in the 1/16 and 1/8oz size the most. The 1/16oz size with 2 1/2" tail piece of a Yum Warning/Kill shot that has been used and chewed up on the head is the business. The fall rate is slow and it catches fish. I've caught so many smallmouth with this rig I lost count. Great small jig for largemouth too. The light weights come through branches and snags really well and the hookup ratio is fantastic.

From: Monty 7/3/18

Comments: The 1/16th oz Bitsy Bug jig with a 2" trailer catches fish like crazy for me. I usually use the end of a Yum Warning Shot worm after the nose gets chewed up for a trailer, or what ever other soft plastic  in a dark color I have around. Black twister tails work well too. The sink rate is slow enough that bass get a long time to take a look at the bite sized bait. I usually use 8lb braid with a 6lb mono or flouro leader. Lots of hit on the drop. I like a dragging or easy hopping retrieve without too much fast movements.

From: Monty: 6/6/18

Comments: This jig is amazing! You can swim it, drag it, or just jig it, and you will still catch fish. This jig is great for a smaller presentation and still catches decent fish. SK makes a trailer just for these but I like the Havoc Pit Boss Jrs. in Black and Blue. I love fishing this jig in Black and blue in 1/8 and 3/16 oz.

From: Jed NYC, NY 1/1/17

Comments: These jigs fished on the Guadalupe river in Texas is the best that you can have. I have tried everything & without a doubt these are the most productive lure that you can use. The bass are as finicky & the water is very clear so presentation is everything

From: Kevin: Kerrville, TX 6/18/16

Comments: I love these jigs so much! I flip the 3/16 jigs in black in blue! The jig is so well compacted that it seems no matter how hard i set the hook, the hook does no bend a slight bit. They work really good one wing dams & rocks! I've even flipped heavy cover like trees & sunken docks. The best trailers seem to be the zoom swimming tails & the Paca Chunk.

From: Hunter: WI 6/5/16

Comments: My favorite jig. I love fishing this in rocks & around scattered wood in the summer time. Also great right after ice out. Fish this on lighter line & a lighter rod than you normally would a jig so you don't bend the hooks. Excellent paired with a menace grub, baby rage craw, speed craw & smallie beaver.

From: Eric: PA 5/17/16

Comments: It's ice out in Michigan and the bass are very finicky. In a local lake I've been throwing 1/4 ounce bitsy bug. Bass have been eating it up. The small profile is really the ticket here right now. Id highly recommend it. I didn't catch any monsters, but these 1 to 3 lbers are great especially for my first outing. Only thing I have to complain about is the hook. It's not very strong, hopefully it doesn't cost me a big fish. But all and all, for the price it's great.

From: Ben: MI 3/13/16

Comments:  I fish these jigs on the flats in Florida and catch some of the biggest Snook,Reds,Trout and even Tarpon ! Thanks Strike King Keep Up The Great Product !

From: Tom: Venice, FL 6/5/15

Comments: Great jigs. I Use the 3/16 in black and blue and green craw with a yum crawbug for creek smallies, and have caught some real monsters on them. Defiantly recommend them

From: Eric: PA 1/11/15

Comments: These jigs are garbage!! The hooks are total junk, the weed gaurds fall off on the first cast, the skirts slide off. Half of the jigs I bought the weed gaurds had already fallen off in the pakage! Why can't strike king step it up and make a decent version of this jig? The concept is good but the quality is not!

From: Nick: USA 7/31/14

Comments: My all time favorite jig. River smallies love this thing. I fish this jig with a netbait trailer during the spawn and it wears them out, big ones too. Fish it over rocky areas during the summer and fall and you will be hooked up in no time.

From: Henry: USA 4/17/14

Comments: My favorite jig hands down ! I have caught several giant bass using this jig tipped with a craw trailer.

From: Scott: IL 3/29/14

Comments: Outstanding jig. Rig up a 3-4 inch Yum Craw Papi or Strike King Rage Craw on it and river smallies will nail it bouncing on the rocky bottom, especiallnin current, rocky areas, and rapids.

From: Just: PA 3/21/14

Comments: These jigs are AWESOME!!  There is always one tied on in every tournament.  There are many applications both shallow and deep for both largemouth and smallmouth.  Just wish TW would carry the black in 1/16th.

From: Sean: Spofford, NH

Comments: the hook on this jig is no good. Too much flex in the hook and it will cost you fish. Get the SK Bitsy Bug "FLIP" jig. Same size and profile as the Bitsy Bug but with a much stronger hook.

From: Jason: Ohio

Comments: i love this jig in green craw colr paired with a orange bc soft craw trailer. i caught a 5 pound smallmouth in a creek by my house with this.

From: Kyle: TN

Comments: Good for price but the hooks are not as sharp as I like and the skirts are not very good. They still will catch fish though.

From: Jim

Comments: It's nice but not my favorite.

From: Aeolian: Kalamazoo

Comments: This is one of the best jigs ever.  it catches fish big and small i caught a 5 lber on it during a tournament but it was on the color Cajun craw which they don't have so if they get that color i recommend getting it.

From: Chase: North Dakota

Comments: awesome jig, but i wish they had some heavier sives and i wish they put a little skirt on it.

From: Alex

Comments:  I love this reel it is the best one I have ever used and I have used many expensive reels and this is by far the best, very smooth casting and retrieve light weight, will be using these from now on hands down, I have it paird with a varitas best combination, all rods and reels will be varitas and lews.

From: Lucas: St. Louis, MO

Comments: The bitsy bug jig is a grate jig to use before the sun goes down when all the bugs r flying low over the water tye on a fly type trailer instead of a craw for this technique

From: Chris

Comments: this is best jig to use under the toughest conditions, clear water, muddy water, it doesn't matter the bitsy bug will get bit!!

From: Cade: Kentucky, USA

Comments: This is my go2 jig for dock fishing and scattered grass. I through this bait every time I go to Lake Winnipausaque in NH and I always catch big fish. I put a net-bait paca craw on the back in the four inch and I catch a lot of fish big fish too the bitsy flippin jig works just as good,try one yourself.

From: Jack: New Hampshire, USA

Comments: This is a winner for tough bite days and cold water gives lots of flex depending on trailer choice.
