Description

The Hover Missile is the most functional hover head on the market with a high-quality hook. Made for the red hot, mid-strolling technique that is popular with Forward Facing Sonar, the weight of the Hover Missile is shaped like a missile that points backwards on the hook shank so the baits will fall horizontally. Unique to the Hover Missile is a patented hole in the top missile fin to lock down the soft plastic bait rigged on the hook. Available in 1/32, 1/16, and 1/8 ounce sizes in a #1 hook. Available in 1/16, 18, and 3/16 ounce sizes in the 2/0 hook. Available in 1/4 and 3/8 ounce sizes in the 4/0 hook. The Hover Missile is going to be the head to have for catching those stubborn suspended bass, schooling bass, and the bass you see on FFS. #1 and 2/0 hook sizes come in 3 packs for $5.99. 4/0 hook sizes come in 2 packs for $5.69.

Field Notes

Use the Hover Missile as a jig head for mid-strolling/hovering presentations, especially when bass are suspended. Rig a soft plastic to the patented top hole, then cast and maintain a controlled, forward-moving retrieve so the bait falls horizontally and stays in the strike zone on forward-facing sonar.

Pros

  • Designed for mid-strolling/hover presentations with forward-facing sonar
  • Missile-shaped head helps the bait fall horizontally
  • Patented top hole helps lock down the soft plastic

Cons

  • Requires correct rigging/soft-plastic fit to maximize the lock-down feature
  • Best performance depends on suspended-bass conditions and technique control
