Description

Strike King’s Tungsten Thunder Cricket now features a super-dense and compact tungsten head that allows for the same legendary tight vibration of the original Thunder Cricket in a smaller size. The Tungsten Thunder Cricket is designed to make longer casts than any finesse-sized bladed jig and features a super-strong long-shank Owner Jungle Hook. The eyelet is designed to pivot freely, which produces a superior action and allows for stronger hookset. The Tungsten Thunder Cricket also features a hand-tied skirt for superior swimming action and an extra-durable trailer keeper to keep soft plastics firmly in place. Strike King offers the Tungsten Thunder Cricket in 14 colors and three sizes.

Field Notes

Use this vibrating swim jig on finesse-sized bladed-jig presentations, especially when you want a tight vibration and a compact profile for longer casts. Cast to cover and retrieve steadily through the water column, varying speed to match forage activity and bottom/cover conditions.

Pros

  • Tungsten head for a compact, dense profile
  • Tight vibration for finesse-sized bladed-jig action
  • Hand-tied skirt for improved swimming action
  • Pivoting eyelet for better action and stronger hookset
  • Extra-durable trailer keeper to hold soft plastics

Cons

  • Not a true topwater lure—requires a retrieve to fish effectively
  • Best results depend on matching trailer/soft plastic and retrieve speed
