Cover Creeper

Stealthy and Bite-Inducing – Compact Jig for Heavy Cover

Cover Creeper
Produced by jig master Toshifumi Kikumoto, the Cover Creeper is a compact finesse jig designed specifically for fishing in heavy cover. When conventional small rubber jigs (smaller-sized "smoraba") get snagged or lack the strength for serious cover, and when full-sized cover jigs are too bulky to trigger bites—this is the jig that gets results with high-pressure bass lurking in dense cover.

This bite-inducing compact jig not only offers outstanding snagless performance, but also features a moderate “sticking” feel, ideal for enticing strikes in key pinpoint spots. Built to handle powerful hooksets even with 16 lb line, it features a rugged hook that won’t bend or fail.

Perfectly suited for bottom dragging, bumping, or swimming through cover, the Cover Creeper delivers exceptional performance even in tough casting situations. When paired with the Antlion trailer, bottom jerking triggers a dynamic side-to-side “dog walk” action, drawing bass in from a distance.

Development Concept

A compact, finesse-style jig that sneaks into heavy cover and entices bites where other jigs fail.

• For bass that reject the bulky profile of full-sized jigs.

• For confidently attacking cover where no-guard or mono-guard finesse jigs would snag.

• For fighting bass aggressively in cover without worrying about hook strength.

Cover Creeper – Product Features

Tungsten Head

• Made from resin-coated tungsten with a wide, low-center-of-gravity design that resists tipping over in cover or on the bottom.

• The head shape prevents it from getting wedged into tight spaces and instead allows it to "climb over" obstacles, significantly reducing snags.

• Generates moderate stack resistance, ideal for provoking strikes in pinpoint spots.

• Weight (g) is engraved on the colored portion of the head (2.8 / 3.5 / 4.5 / 5.8 / 7 / 8.8 / 10.5).

• The opposite side features the FECO certification mark (F).

Brush Guard

• Balances snag resistance and hooking performance at a high level.

• Brush quantity varies by head weight:

  • Fewer strands for lighter models (2.8g, 3.5g, 4.5g, 5.8g) – compatible with light tackle.

  • More strands for heavier models (7g, 8.8g, 10.5g) – optimized for heavy cover.

Original Hook

• Features a custom-shaped, medium-wire gauge hook strong enough to handle aggressive fights near cover.

  • (Models 2.8g–5.8g use a slightly smaller version.)

  • (Models 7g–10.5g use a larger, thicker version suited to heavier tackle.)

• Fluorine-coated for smoother penetration and easier hooksets.

Silicone Skirt

• Uses fine-gauge silicone rubber that responds even to subtle water movement.

• Custom colors matched to blend naturally with trailer worms.

• Features a three-layer cut (short, medium, long) for lifelike volume, movement delay, and enhanced realism.

Wire Keeper

• Equipped with a wire trailer keeper that offers excellent holding power.

• Made from 0.4mm fine-gauge wire, compatible with small soft plastics.
