The Strike King Hybrid Hunter Jr. is a shallow diving crankbait featuring a unique 90-degree L-shaped bill that creates a hard thumping action with an extremely loud rattle, designed to provoke strikes from fish. It dives 2-4 feet and weighs 1/2 ounce, making it effective in water 1-5 feet deep, particularly over submerged grass. The lure includes reflective 3D eyes, chip-resistant finishes, and size 4 and 6 treble hooks, though some users report it can blow out at high retrieval speeds and may have paint durability concerns.

My Go Too

Anthony B.

Shallow lakes in Florida this is my go to for cranking. The action bring out the big bites.

Hybrid hunter

Justin M.

I always have one tied on. Such a versatile bait. Shallow water crank, jerk bait. I have always caught fish with it

New favorite crankbait

Eric S.

Since starting to throw this crankbait it has ended up replacing a squarebill and a lipless in my rotation.

Hydrilla Extroardinaire

Michael L.

I love fishing this crank around hydrilla! The bill won't hang up in the hydrilla, but you want the hooks to hang up just a bit. Then, rip it free and hang on! This bait has been the star of multiple tournament days!

Hybrid Hunter

Michael D.

Caught a 9.6 today on the Hybrid Hunter, great bait

Excellent sound and skinny water fishing

ROBERT N.

in a recent trip on Lake Fork it saved the day for fishing in 1-3ft in 20mph winds with gust. didn’t hang once where a 1/2oz trap was hanging every other cast. worked its way through grass and stubs.its february so red red was the color.

It worked good

Robert D.

It worked good

Shocked.

JARRELL R.

It's perfect. Comes over the grass great and rips nice out of clumps. Has saved me many days on the river when other's are struggling to catch fish.

very nice

Eric H.

I haven't had a chance to use it as of yet !

Hybrid

Gene B.

When the bass are dirt shallow in the grass this bait shines

Amazing

Matthew M.

Perfect for the grass that’s just a few feet off the surface and the action is amazing

Love these new baits

Scott C.

The hybrid hunter jr is

Jason L.

The hybrid hunter jr is badass. Cought 2 - 4 pound bass all day

Lawrence A.

H H Jr crankbait

robert j.

Worked well @ Kentucky Lake last week. caught a couple of fishing using it.

Please don't buy it

Clayton C.

Great lure. I hope nobody buys one, that way I can be the only person throwing it.

Great movement

Capt. G.

This bait shows great side to side movement causes bites and stirs up feeding competition

The absolute best crankbait on

Tommy W.

The absolute best crankbait on the market.. love the action and how it comes through cover

Does not come through heavy

Charlie T.

Does not come through heavy grass as easily as ads say it will. That being said, it is still a good bait for edges and sparse grass.

Love the lures, but surprised

Joe l.

Love the lures, but surprised how many I’ve lost the lip right of the lure and almost every lure looses one eye after a few cast. But the defiantly catch fish!!! So I guess that the important part.

Hybrid Hunter Junior

Rick

I LOVE the HH Jr. The only issue I've had is that the dang bill separates from the bait for some reason. I've had this happen multiple times. Unsure what will correct this (more glue, slotted pin, etc. ). I'm sure ya'll will figure it out.

Clearwater minnow JR

Ben S.

This lure caught me a bunch of fish. Took this up to lake St Clair, MI. I caught small mouth, large mouth, rock bass, crappie and northern pike. I used two lures during my 4 day trip. Clearwater minnow and Delta Red. Over 100 lures in my arsenal and these two kicked butt. Over a hundred fish one day...

  • Discussion on whether Strike King Hybrid Hunter Jr. lures are effective

    One user says, 'Yep I use it with good success over top of submergent grass. Surprisingly does not get hung to much and that is due to high bouancy. When you do hit grass kill it and it floats up.' Another states, 'I didn't care for it, threw it in a junk drawer. I thought it blew out too quick, couldn't really burn it as fast as I needed. And it's gawd awful noisy.'
