Anglers who want a large, multi-species jig assortment backed by the deepest review history in this comparison, and who prefer buying a full kit in one order rather than assembling single jig types separately.
Skip if
Skip it if you only need a handful of jigs in one specific size or hook style, since dedicated single-style jigs like the Z-MAN 003341 or Acme S-3023 target a narrower use case at a lower piece count.

The overall score is owner satisfaction weighted by how many reviews back it, so a high rating from few reviews counts for less. The bars below show where this model stands against the other fishing gear and tackle we track in this category on price, popularity and size. Context, not marks against it, and our read of the data, not a lab test.
Overview
Building a jig box one style at a time gets expensive and slow, which is the gap a big assortment kit like the Trout 87699 is built to close. For $22.99 it delivers 150 pieces of plastic jigs using a standard hook, aimed at multi-species fishing rather than one target fish, with a total kit weight of 1.76 ounces.
The listing does carry a small inconsistency worth flagging: the size field reads 142 Piece Kit while the piece count elsewhere is listed as 150. Either way, this is a large-format kit built for stocking a tackle box broadly rather than a single presentation, unlike the single-piece Strike TGSJ38-234 and Z-MAN 003341 jigs or the 3-piece Acme S-3023 in this comparison.
Review data backs it up. At 4.6 stars across 1,808 reviews, the Trout 87699 has more than four times the reviews of the next-closest comparison jig, the Z-MAN 003341 at 439 reviews and 4.7 stars. It also leads on current demand, with 400+ units bought in the past month against 100+ for the Strike and Z-MAN jigs and 50+ for the Acme S-3023. At $22.99 it costs more upfront than any of the three single-style comparison jigs, but it delivers far more pieces and a far larger review base.
Pros
- 150 pieces per kit for $22.99, more volume than any comparison jig, which top out at 3 pieces
- 4.6 star average across 1,808 reviews, more than four times the review count of the next-closest jig in this comparison
- 400+ bought in the past month, the highest recent demand figure among the jigs compared here
- Targets multi-species fishing rather than one fish type, unlike the Fish, Bass/Panfish or Panfish-specific comparison jigs
- Plastic construction at a manageable 1.76 ounces for the full kit
Cons
- Listing shows a size-versus-piece-count mismatch, labeled 142 Piece Kit in the size field but 150 in the piece count
- At $22.99 it costs more upfront than the $5.99 Strike, $9.96 Z-MAN or $15.99 Acme jigs
- Standard Hook is a generic technique description, without the named hook style detail given for the Strike, Z-MAN and Acme jigs
- Assortment format means less control over any single jig size or color versus buying a dedicated style

Performance notes
A 150-piece kit at 1.76 ounces total works out to a very light average weight per jig, consistent with an assortment meant to cover many small presentations rather than one heavy dedicated jig. The plastic build and standard hook description are generic compared to the specific hook styles called out on the comparison jigs, the J Hook Medium Bend on the Strike TGSJ38-234, the Needle Point 5/0 Hook on the Z-MAN 003341, and the Single Curved Hook on the Acme S-3023, so buyers get breadth rather than a single, precisely specified rig. Listing Multi as the target species fits that broad-kit approach, in contrast to the Bass/Panfish focus of the Z-MAN or the Panfish-only focus of the Acme. For anglers stocking a box from scratch or covering several species on one trip, that breadth is the functional selling point over a narrower, single-style jig purchase.
What buyers say
At 1,808 reviews, the Trout 87699 has by far the deepest review history of any jig in this comparison, more than four times the 439 reviews behind the next-closest, the Z-MAN 003341. Its 4.6 star average holds up well against that volume, close to the Z-MAN's 4.7 stars but backed by a vastly larger sample. The 400+ bought-last-month figure also leads the group, well ahead of the 100+ shown for the Strike and Z-MAN jigs and the 50+ for the Acme S-3023. Read together, the pattern points to sustained, high-volume demand for this kit specifically, with a review base large enough that the 4.6 star average carries real statistical weight rather than resting on a small or recent sample.

Frequently asked questions
How many jigs are in the Trout 87699 kit?
The piece count field lists 150 jigs for $22.99, though the size field on the same listing reads 142 Piece Kit, a minor inconsistency worth noting. Either figure makes it the largest jig assortment among the options compared here, which range from 1 to 3 pieces.
Is the Trout 87699 jig kit well reviewed?
Yes. It holds 4.6 stars across 1,808 reviews, more than four times the review count of the next-largest comparison jig, the Z-MAN 003341 at 439 reviews. It also leads recent demand at 400+ bought in the past month, well ahead of the 100+ and 50+ figures posted by the other comparison jigs.
What species does the Trout 87699 jig kit target?
The listing names Multi as the target species, a broader claim than the Fish-only Strike TGSJ38-234, the Bass and Panfish focused Z-MAN 003341, or the Panfish-only Acme S-3023, making it suited to general-purpose or multi-species trips rather than one specific fish, which fits its role as a large 150-piece assortment kit.
