Who it suits
Is it right for you?
Great for
- Perch anglers fishing light. The small profile and light jig heads suit controlled presentations on suitably light lure tackle.
- Beginners and travelling-light anglers. Ready-mounted lures mean fewer separate bits to organise and less fiddling before the first cast.
Maybe skip if
- Anglers working deep or fast-flowing water. A 3g head may struggle to reach and hold the depth you need.
- Anglers fishing thick weed or snag-filled cover. The exposed hooks are less forgiving than a suitable weedless presentation.

Quick verdict
A handy little perch pack
The appeal is dead simple: small soft lures, already mounted straight onto micro jig heads, with four colours to rotate through. For light perch fishing, that’s a useful way to cut the faff and keep moving.
The catch is the fixed 3g head weight. It won’t cover every depth or flow, and those exposed hooks need care around weed and timber. Buy it for light jig fishing, not as a do-everything predator box.

The ready-mounted micro jig format is practical, though soft bodies remain replaceable wear items.
The small profile and 3g heads offer a useful light presentation where depth and flow allow proper control.
A small prey-sized offering gives you a sensible perch option, but location and presentation matter more than the UV label.
Pre-mounted lures remove the fiddly initial rigging step and make getting started straightforward.
Four ready-rigged colour options offer useful convenience, although the fixed head weight limits their versatility.

The full rundown
Everything you'll want to know about the Fox Rage Ultra UV Micro Spikey Loaded
If your idea of a decent lure session is a light rod, a small bag and a wander along the canal, the Fox Rage Ultra UV Micro Spikey Loaded makes plenty of sense. It’s a four-pack of little soft lures already mounted on jig heads, so you’re not starting the session squinting at a hook and trying to thread a tiny body on straight. Connect one to a suitable leader or trace and get fishing. That ready-to-go setup is the real draw here, particularly when you’ve only pinched an hour on the bank.
The exact pack here is NMC041: 4cm lures fitted to 3g micro jig heads with size 4 hooks. Those details matter because the Spikey name alone doesn’t tell you which size or rigging option you’re buying. This is a small presentation for light lure work, with perch the obvious starting point. One useful distinction, too: 3g is the jig-head weight, not a confirmed weight for the whole assembled lure. Match your rod to the complete presentation rather than assuming that number tells the entire story.
At 4cm, you’re offering a modest mouthful rather than something that needs an aggressive chase to look worthwhile. That can be a sensible approach when perch are hunting small prey, or when you want to explore a swim without starting with a chunky lure. Don’t confuse small with guaranteed, though. A tiny lure dragged through empty water is still fishing empty water. Work likely holding areas, change your casting angle and cover different depths before deciding the colour is the problem. Location still does the heavy lifting, mate.
The 3g heads give this pack a clear job rather than unlimited versatility. Think controlled casts with light tackle and swims where you can keep some feel for what the lure is doing. On a sheltered canal or a gentler stretch of river, that can be a useful starting point. Add stronger flow, extra depth or a stiff crosswind and keeping contact gets trickier. If the lure is being swept away before it reaches your chosen depth, another colour won’t fix it. You need a more suitable head weight.
For the retrieve, keep things simple to begin with. Let the lure sink under control, then try a steady wind or short lifts with pauses between them. You’re trying to make a small prey-sized target available, not launch it halfway across the swim with every rod movement. Watch the line as well as feeling through the rod, especially while the lure drops. A sudden twitch or an unexpected stop deserves attention. Vary the pause length and retrieve speed until you’ve got a clearer picture of where any interest is coming from.
You get Green Pumpkin UV, Sun Dance UV, Wakasagi UV and Motor Oil UV in the pack. Having four options is dead handy when you want to change the look without rebuilding the whole presentation. The UV badge isn’t a promise that perch will switch on, mind. Water clarity, light, background and the fish’s mood all complicate colour choice. Start with something you can fish confidently, then swap methodically. Keep the retrieve roughly the same for a few casts so you’re not changing absolutely everything at once and learning very little.
There are practical limits around cover. These are conventional exposed-hook jig presentations, so trailing them through thick weed or repeatedly dropping them into submerged branches can get expensive in lost tackle. Fish alongside cover with some care rather than assuming the little body makes the hook snag-proof. Check the lure sits straight after a knock and inspect the hook point after contact with hard ground. If pike are a realistic possibility, use an appropriate bite-resistant trace; a small perch lure doesn’t somehow stop a pike having a go.
Overall, this is a convenient little starting pack for an angler who wants to fish rather than organise a pocketful of separate heads and bodies. It’s also useful for keeping a compact selection ready when a cheeky short session crops up. More experienced lure anglers may prefer loose bodies and several head weights for finer control, and that’s fair enough. The Loaded pack trades some of that flexibility for simplicity. If 4cm lures on 3g heads fit your water and tackle, that’s a sensible trade, with no need to expect miracles from the colours.

Our take
Convenience matters more than the UV badge
The biggest practical benefit is having four small presentations ready to fish. You can spend your time finding perch rather than threading tiny bodies onto hooks.
Treat the UV colours as options, not magic. Getting the lure to the right depth and keeping its movement controlled will usually deserve your attention first.
What you're buying
Closer look: four small lures with the rigging sorted
This pack combines the Micro Spikey’s textured soft body with a ready-mounted micro jig head. Each lure is 4cm long, with a 3g head and size 4 hook. The practical gain is consistency and convenience: there’s no initial threading job, and you don’t need to choose a separate hook-and-head combination.
Green Pumpkin UV, Sun Dance UV, Wakasagi UV and Motor Oil UV provide the colour selection. That gives you a few looks to rotate through while keeping size and head weight the same. Just remember that soft bodies can tear or slip after attention from fish or snags; check their alignment rather than casting on regardless.
Worth knowing. Loaded means pre-mounted here. It doesn’t mean weedless, and the stated 3g is the jig-head weight rather than a confirmed complete-lure weight.
Finding its job
Who it suits: perch anglers keeping things light
This is a tidy fit for someone starting light lure fishing or carrying a small selection for short roving sessions. Pair it with tackle that handles small jig presentations properly. A heavy outfit can make casting and bite detection unnecessarily clumsy, even though the lure itself is easy to attach.
It’s less convincing as your only option across a mixed stretch of river. A quiet edge and a deep, pushing channel may need very different head weights. Carry alternatives if your route covers both, and switch presentations when conditions demand it rather than trying to force the 3g head to do every job.
For a beginner, the convenience has clear value. For someone who already owns plenty of micro heads and knows exactly how they like their bodies mounted, loose lures may offer more flexibility. With no price comparison pinned down, the sensible buying question is whether ready-rigged convenience is what you actually need.
Quick bank-side answers
FAQs in full: rigging, weight and colour
Are they ready to fish? Yes: the bodies arrive pre-mounted on their micro jig heads, with size 4 hooks. Connect one to an appropriate leader or trace, check the hook point and make sure the body sits straight. Where pike are likely, proper bite protection still matters.
Does 3g mean the complete lure weighs 3g? No—the confirmed figure is for the jig head. The soft body adds weight, so don’t use 3g as a precise all-in casting weight when judging the limits of a very light rod.
Which colours are included, and which should you start with? You get Green Pumpkin UV, Sun Dance UV, Wakasagi UV and Motor Oil UV. There’s no universal winner. Pick one, establish a useful depth and retrieve, then change colour while keeping the rest reasonably consistent. That’s more helpful than a frantic swap after every quiet cast.
