The Zoom Brush Hog 6″ is one of the most trusted creature baits in bass fishing a multi-appendage design with fluttering appendages, subtle legs, and a compact body that moves naturally on the fall and comes alive with even the slightest rod tip shake. The 6-inch size is the big-bass version, built for targeting larger fish and fishing in heavy cover where a full-profile creature bait draws strikes that smaller baits cant. Made from Zooms soft, salty plastic that bass hold on to longer. 8 per pack.
Key Features
- Multi-Appendage Design Maximum Movement & Water Displacement The Brush Hogs multiple fluttering appendages and subtle legs produce movement and water displacement from every angle on the fall and during the retrieve; each appendage moves independently, creating a chaotic, lifelike action that mimics a fleeing crawfish or large insect; the multi-appendage profile pushes more water than a single-tail or twin-tail creature bait, making it detectable to bass through their lateral line in both clear and stained water.
- 6″ Big-Bass Profile The 6-inch size is the larger version of the Brush Hog lineup, designed for targeting big bass that are keying on larger prey; the full 6″ profile is most effective in heavy cover (matted vegetation, laydowns, dock pilings) where big bass are holding and a larger bait is needed to draw them out; also effective for punching through matted vegetation where the bulk of the 6″ body carries the bait through the mat.
- Zoom Salty Plastic Natural Feel, Longer Hold Made from Zooms soft, salt-impregnated plastic; the salt taste triggers a natural hold response that keeps bass on the bait longer, giving you more time to detect the bite and set the hook through heavy cover; the soft plastic also compresses naturally on the hookset for better hook penetration.
- Versatile Rig Compatibility Effective on Texas rigs, Carolina rigs, flipping rigs, and punching rigs; the compact body threads easily onto a wide hook and the appendages remain active regardless of rig configuration; also effective as a jig trailer on large flipping jigs for a full-profile craw presentation.
- 8 Per Pack Eight baits per pack.

Best For
- Texas Rig Heavy Cover The primary application; rig the Brush Hog 6″ on a 4/05/0 wide gap hook with a 1/43/4 oz bullet weight and fish through heavy cover; the multi-appendage action on the fall triggers strikes from bass holding tight to structure.
- Flipping & Pitching Pitch the Brush Hog 6″ into heavy cover on a flipping rig; the 6″ profile is large enough to draw big bass out of thick cover; use heavier weights (1/23/4 oz) to punch through matted vegetation.
- Carolina Rig Open Water & Points Effective on a Carolina rig for covering open water, points, and transition areas where bass are suspended or roaming; the multi-appendage action on a long leader produces a natural, drifting presentation that triggers strikes from bass that are not holding tight to cover.
- Jig Trailer Thread the Brush Hog 6″ on the back of a large flipping jig for a full-profile craw presentation; the appendages add bulk and action to the jig that a plain chunk trailer cannot match.
