dtrs5kprs Posted January 24, 2015 Posted January 24, 2015 Second of the underwater Ned Rig videos is up. Remember, the bait is moving a little faster due to the size and depth of the pool. Normally would not move or fish the rig that fast. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aLhZ_UNFS1w&feature=youtu.be
Quillback Posted January 24, 2015 Posted January 24, 2015 I like that swimming action - mucho gracias!
dtrs5kprs Posted January 24, 2015 Author Posted January 24, 2015 I like that swimming action - mucho gracias! The shadz and finesse worm swim the best, but I catch more fish swimming the cut bait. Not sure why. It really works as they push up on beds. When you hit that day they really start to lock down you can usually catch some running it over their heads way back in little cuts and pockets.
Guest Posted January 24, 2015 Posted January 24, 2015 Deadsticking them in current, probably makes it wiggle as the water pushes past it. I catch the creek bass by deadsticking or swimming. Never tried shaking it, but will do next time.

I catch the creek bass by deadsticking or swimming. Never tried shaking it, but will do next time. The trick is in shaking it in place as much as possible. As you can see in the pool it is hard to do that on a tight line. The pool limited the ability to keep slack in the line, because the bait got too close to the rod, too quickly. I am with you on the current. Would think just letting it sit would be enough most of the time.
LittleRedFisherman Posted January 25, 2015 Posted January 25, 2015 Just tried the Ned for the first time for river smallies recently! I was impressed! There's no such thing, as a bad day fishing!
Ham Posted January 25, 2015 Posted January 25, 2015 Tip of the iceberg Bret. It gets so much better when the water is warmer. Crazy good. Every Saint has a past, every Sinner has a future. On Instagram @hamneedstofish

I know those rivers in your neck of the woods, but only floated them back then. Trust me, the Ned will absolutely work. I like to tight line it in moderate to light current.

I had a lot better hookup when I did a light twitch as it drifted. After watching that , I actually underestimated how good I did with it. My partner wasn't using one at first, but he quickly got in my Ned stash....lol.. There's no such thing, as a bad day fishing!
