Bass anglers who want a small, inexpensive restock of needle point silicone jigs and lean on review volume as a buying signal. Good for anyone building a starter box or replacing lost tackle without a big investment.

Skip it if you need bulk variety, since the kit ships only 5 pieces versus the 150-piece Trout 87699 kit at a similar price. Anglers targeting species other than bass may also want a broader color or technique lineup.

The overall score is owner satisfaction weighted by how many reviews back it, so a high rating from few reviews counts for less.

Context, not marks against it, and our read of the data, not a lab test.
Overview
Picture restocking a bass box before a weekend on the lake and not wanting to gamble on an unfamiliar lure. The MadBite MLUBLJKIT-5 kit answers that with 5 silicone jigs built around a needle point hook design, aimed squarely at bass, and priced at $21.99, currently in stock.
Each jig weighs a light 0.38 ounces, which fits finesse presentations more than heavy cover work, and the silicone body is a softer, more flexible material than the plastic or metal jigs it competes against. The needle point hook technique is built for solid hooksets on structure-oriented bass, and the small pack size of 5 pieces keeps the per-jig cost visible rather than buried in a bulk kit.
Among the four jigs compared here, the MadBite kit has by far the largest review base at 1,993, ahead of the Trout 87699's 1,808 and well past the Strike and Z-MAN options. It also leads on recent demand, with 1,000+ bought last month against the Trout kit's 400+. The tradeoff is piece count: at 5 jigs for $21.99, it costs more per piece than the 150-piece Trout kit, though it targets bass specifically rather than a multi-species mix.
Pros
- 4.5-star average across 1,993 reviews, the largest review base of any jig in this comparison
- 1,000+ bought last month, more than double the next closest option's 400+
- Needle point hook technique designed for solid hooksets on bass
- Light 0.38-ounce weight suits finesse presentations
- Silicone construction gives a softer, more flexible body than metal or plastic jigs
- Currently in stock at $21.99
Cons
- Only 5 pieces per kit, fewer than the 150-piece Trout 87699 kit at a similar $22.99 price
- Built specifically for bass, so it is less useful for multi-species tackle boxes
- At $21.99 for 5 jigs, the per-piece cost is higher than the Z-MAN 003341's single-jig $9.96 price point
- 0.38 ounces is light for anything beyond finesse fishing, limiting use in heavy cover

Performance notes
A 0.38-ounce silicone jig sits on the finesse end of the bass spectrum. That weight casts light and settles slowly, which matters for anglers working clear water or pressured fish rather than punching through heavy vegetation. The needle point hook technique is meant to penetrate cleanly on the hookset, a detail that matters more as hook count per kit shrinks to 5 pieces, since each jig needs to perform. Silicone as a body material behaves differently from the plastic used in the Trout 87699 or the metal and synthetic bodies of the Strike and Z-MAN options: it holds a softer profile and more natural movement in the water column. Because the kit is bass-specific rather than a multi-species set, anglers fishing for panfish or trout alongside bass will still need a separate box of jigs matched to those species and techniques.
What buyers say
A 4.5-star average holding steady across 1,993 reviews signals consistent satisfaction at real scale, not a handful of early adopters skewing the number. That review count is also the largest of the four jigs compared here, well ahead of the Trout 87699's 1,808 and far beyond the Strike TGSJ38-234's 283 or the Z-MAN 003341's 439. The 1,000+ bought-last-month figure reinforces that this is a high-turnover product, more than double the Trout kit's 400+ and multiple times the 100+ pace of the Strike and Z-MAN listings. Together, the rating, review volume, and purchase pace point to a jig that keeps selling briskly without a drop in average score, which is a harder pattern to fake than a high rating alone.

Frequently asked questions
How heavy is the MadBite MLUBLJKIT-5 jig?
Each jig in the MadBite MLUBLJKIT-5 kit weighs 0.38 ounces, a light build suited to finesse bass presentations rather than punching heavy cover. The kit ships 5 silicone jigs with a needle point hook, priced at $21.99 total, so the per-jig weight stays consistent across the set.
How many jigs come in the kit?
The MadBite MLUBLJKIT-5 kit includes 5 silicone jigs made for bass with a needle point hook. That is fewer pieces than the 150-piece Trout 87699 kit, though it costs $21.99 versus the Trout kit's $22.99, so it suits a targeted bass restock rather than a bulk multi-species tackle box.
Is this jig kit popular with buyers?
Yes. It carries a 4.5-star average across 1,993 reviews, the highest review count among the bass jigs compared here, and 1,000+ units were bought last month. That purchase pace is more than double the 400+ recorded for the Trout 87699, suggesting steady, current demand rather than a one-time spike.
