Ned Rig Setups....what Do You Use?

[bkohlman]

Lets share what we use when we throw the Ned Rig.

 

I use a 6' L paired with a size 2000 Cabela's Fish Eagle Tournament II Spinning Reel with 20lb Power Pro Braid, sometimes with a 6lb flouro leader....sometimes not.

A 6' ML Berkley lightning rod, with a older shakespeare agility reel.  6lb trilene XT.  Pretty cheapo, but it does the job. 

[BrianinMD]

Custom 7ft 4in ML from DVT paired with a Stratic CI4 with 8lb Invizx flouro.

[desmobob]

7' LF TFO Signature Series rod, old Shimano AeroSymetre reel, 6lb. Trilene XL (now changed to 6lb. Yo-Zuri Hybrid).  In open water, it's fun to fish light Ned Rigs on my UL spinning outfits, too.

 

Tight lines,

Bob

There are some FINE combos listed above !! ... I use a 7' ML Fast Cabela's rod , President 6925 , #8lb. Power Pro Yellow , #6lb. InvizX leader , Gopher 1/16th oz. mushroom jig #4 hook size or ZMan finesse mushroom type jig head , ZMan TRD , ZMan ZinkerZ cut in half , ZMan BatwingZ (smaller version) Gulp Alive Marinade or Pro Cure Scent . * You can probably tell I have pictures on my wall of all the Midwest Finesse / Ozark Forum studs who are taking the Ned Rig to the next level  ...On this site -T9 & Bluebasser 86 absolutely rule !! If they don't know the answer to a Ned rig question - it's probably not worth knowing !!

I'm using a 7' 2" Diawa Cielo ML fast with a Shimano Sahara 1000 spooled with 10 lb power pro and a 8 lb flouro leader. This is the same set up that I use for dropshots and spybaits. I stick with the Z Man TRD on their mushroom head for now, next summer I'll play with an Erie darter on the mushroom head instead.

I have a couple of setups that I fish the Ned Rig on.   My favorite is the St.Croix LTB 6'10" MLXF it has a Pflueger Patriarch 25 with 10LB Super Slick 8 braid and a 6lb FC leader.    The other is a St. Croix LTB 6'10" MXF with a Pflueger Supreme MGX 25 same line setup.  

 

I am fortunate enough to have several other very nice setups, but find myself reaching for these two more often than not.

For now I am using a Guido Hibdon Diawa 6'3" Finess Rod with a new Plueger Supreme XT. I am using 7lb. Sniper and the usually Z Man heads and TRD. I am thinking about changing the rod to a St Croix 6'9' ml. and go with 10lb. braid and  7lb leader.Just started using the Ned Rig so I am still learning it.
