Al work well for ned, depending on casting distance needed and weight of the rig. 6’ rod is more for wading creeks and I fish a number of baits on it. 6’8 imx is pretty much all around finesse. 6’9 Phenix is drop shot but works great for neds and light minnow baits/small rattle traps. Dobyns is my tube rod but works very good for 1/8-1/4oz neds especially when fishing clear water lakes like Clair.
Every creek, river, and several lakes in the area have them. I mainly wade creeks and rivers in central indiana for them year round with a ton of luck. Switch it up from largemouth gear and look into what baits work best. Won’t take you long to get one
