Illex JUNGLE BLASTER is a versatile rubber jig developed for fishing tight to heavy cover such as weed beds, sunken timber and lily pads. Two years of development have resulted in a compact jig that can be skipped and worked confidently around snags where big predators hold.
The eco-friendly Bismuth-Tin head has a ball-shaped top and a boat-shaped base with side cheeks, giving a stable swimming action and controlled fall. This design helps the jig slide and deflect around obstacles instead of snagging up.
JUNGLE BLASTER is equipped with a strong wire 4/0 hook and a brush guard with carefully tuned stiffness to balance hook-up rate and snag protection. The high-quality silicone skirt pulses on the retrieve and when paused, adding extra attraction even on pressured fish.
The keeper for trailers holds your chosen soft bait securely, letting you adjust profile and vibration. Designed primarily for pike and black bass, it is also effective for big perch and smaller catfish. For added presence and vibration, Illex recommends pairing it with MAGIC CRAW 80 or 115, DEXTER EEL 150, or DEXTER SHAD 110 or 150.
