PSA: The Ned Rig No Longer Works.... 2025


fishing user avatarDarren. reply : 

Just passing this along. I have it on good authority that it is true.

 

So please, just stop using it.

 

You don't want it to turn into every other "it" bait. Trust me.

 

Thank you. :D 

 

PS, in case you didn't know, PSA stands for Public Service Announcement.

Now you know. So you must obey.


fishing user avatar12poundbass reply : 

So two PSA’s in one. You had a PSA to describe what a PSA is. I like it! ????

Don’t confuse PTA with PETAs who can be a PITA.

Early April Fools? What is your arguments to stop using the NED? Snag a lot? 


fishing user avatarGreenPig reply : 

I quit using it when I realized you could only catch one at a time unless you put a 5" free swinging stinger hook on it.

Yep, every other cast it seems I get snagged on these weird slimy green wiggly things


fishing user avatarColumbia Craw reply : 

What a guy that Darren.  Thinking of my best interest.  Just think of all the time he saved me on the water trying to force feed those finicky bass a lure that is so ineffective. That's what this forum is all about, sharing and caring about all of it's members.  I have a special account with Longview Waste control to dispose of any Ned rig related tackle so send it to me and I will see it's properly recycled.  I, like Darren want to be a selfless giver.

 

 


fishing user avatarLog Catcher reply : 

O f course the Ned Rig still works. I know because I manage to catch the bottom of the lake and end up breaking off every time I use it. Still haven't figured out how to catch a fish on it.


fishing user avatarJediAmoeba reply : 

Since it no longer works I will gladly dispose of all your ned heads, baits and anything else related to it.  Just send it to me and I will guarantee of its disposal.  ????

What are forum friends for? I'm so glad I could help out.

 

And look, don't bother taking your Ned tackle to the dump.

Such a terrible waste of your time, and gas. I would be more

than happy to help you out. No really. I am very generous

that way. I can dispose of it for you, just send all of it my way

and I'll take care of it. :D 


fishing user avatarBass_Fishing_Socal reply : 

That is why I don’t catch anything lately, man time to find new thing again, what is the hype recently?

Don't move it much, just let it set, then when your impatience gets the best of you, just nudge it along a little, then wait again.  Easy to overdo it.  AND use the proper color for your water.  LMB seem to like the PB & J and Junebug quite well and SMB like the greens better, New Money, Canada Craw.  White in very clear water.  Keep in mind that every fish may be part of a good pattern.  Color preference may change during the day.  


fishing user avatarrtwvumtneer6 reply : 

Funny enough, spinnerbaits have been banned on certain lakes.  More specifically, every lake that I fish ????????


fishing user avatarFinessegenics reply :

I use the 3.5" Split Tail Sticko on the Ned Rig either in green pumpkin or watermelon seed. I don't buy Z man products because I don't want to worry about them ending up in the wrong place and causing problems with my other stuff. There are SMB and LMB both in the places I have used it.


fishing user avatarHook2Jaw reply : 

Hi, I'm Troy...

 

I've used the Ned Rig.

 

I've painstakingly drug and hopped it on the bottom.

 

I've pooped my pants in rage every time I had to tie it on.


fishing user avatarNYWayfarer reply : 

It will have to join the list of baits that “no longer work” that I still throw.
