Ned Rig

[rosshilk]

How do you guys fish the rig. I have heard of the ned rig fished on a slack line leaving the bait alone for minutes. I am wondering if thats the only way to fish it properly.

google: ned rig site:bassresource.com

 

Unfortunately the embedded search tool doesn't like three letter words.  Use google and you'll find there's a ton of ned rig info here from just the last couple months

you can fish like any other worm rig. drag it, hop it, leave it, etc

There is no right or wrong way to work the Ned. That's what throws off a ton of people. I usually slack line it, slow reel it, or try to imitate a small darting craw.

Like any bait, you can fish it however you like. I believe Ned now has 6 specific "named" retrieves he performs with his baits, most all of which I believe he describes in the following video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qqGTzPt6TIQ. I have kept my retrieves to versions of the original 5, with the "swim and glide" my most utilized retrieve.

Let the fish tell you how they want it!!! Some people fish way too fast! Let it sit and wiggle the rod tip.
