Yup, I would save my torn up senkos to use on a weightless T-rigg on pressured ponds. That gets bit when nothing else will especially when they are just big enough to be rigged on the hook properly.
Hey my name is Phoenix I’m 13 I know this is off topic but thank you so much for helping me catch my pb 7.42 on a swim jig from watching your vids. Hope I get to meet you I’m in East Tennessee
Hi guys, not a Ned specific comment here. 4 months ago I got to borrow my cousins kayak and brought along a baitcaster and a friend gave me a little piece of junk hollow frog bought off Amazon for 5pcs@$10. Its was crap! I hooked about a 5#er after a few days going to this pond nearby. Since then I've been painfully aware what real life addiction looks like-to tackle, gear, and especially techniques! Thanks forever to yall both for the videos that have started to change my life in a specific and amazing way. I'm an ex-drinker who needed a healthy outlet so badly- and have rediscovered a passion from my childhood thanks to that cousin, a China frog, and the information you both provide so readily and consistently! I could never say thanks in a way that would properly express how life has changed for the better here in Maine for me... so grateful to the powers of the universe that have realigned my senses of what's important and real and good. Thanks again forever for helping this happen. Best wishes TZ
That combo cost so much. When you go to the tackle shop to buy it and ask how much is it all together with tax. They write the number on a piece of paper and slide it over to you
Dude......someone seriously, tell me how the hell peric can have close to a million subs And these guys be sitting where they are. Love the channel guys pl3ase dont ever stop doing what you do
Because ap is entertaining and unpredictable. While giving information on a variety of things these guys videos are all the same. They are more like a reference book than a narrative.
Ah ned rigs. More my speed for winter haha. I like the z-man heads & trd. Also strike kings coffee infused ned plastics Catch them. xzone has caught me some too. Usually dip all tails in jjs magic. Thanks for vids.
@@DeadPool9206 oh I've never caught anything on hard baits either lmao. Nothing works, I foul hooked a bass with a jerk bait but that doesn't count because I just randomly ran into the side of him. I religiously watch videos on techniques and how to use each bait and nothing works besides throwing a nightcrawler on a hook.
The ned rig is one of those baits that I heard a lot about, then went out and bought a bunch up, then proceeded to not catch many fish on. And I have tried it. My theory is that a mucky bottom with dingy water (which are my water conditions) make the ned rig less than optimal. Anybody else have this issue with the ned rig?
My son destroys pond bass with the TRD in the Junebug color. He'll outfish his friends 10 to 1 and much like Matt 20 years ago, they just don't pick up on it and have missed the boat.
Buy Z-Man Bang StickZ, the 5 3/4" Neko rig stickbait, and cut them in half!!! TacticalBassin fans this is my TOP Ned rig tip!🤜🏻🤛🏻🔥 The front half is a 2 1/2" TRD, the back half is a 2 3/4" TicklerZ!!! Best of all Bang StickZ are SALT FREE so you don't need to soak out the salt as you do with cut-in-half ZinkerZ! So, for the price of one bag of Elaztech you get TWO SETS of baits! Fish smart, shop smart!!!! You're welcome!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Awesome video as always guys...I just got back into bass fishing back in June after a 20year lay off and started hearing about the ned rig. I didn't start with the original TRD I saw a Jacob Wheeler video about a TRD Bugz in Green Pumpkin I went to the little lake just down from my house a few weeks after I got the ned rig and I had a pretty good day and from that point I have thrown ned rig 80% of the time. I almost always catch something on a Ned almost every time I go out. Large Mouth, White Bass, Carp, even a catfish lol I use a medium action 7' rod on straight spiderwire...I'm still working on the braid to Fluorocarbon leader.
For the beginners we need cheeper bait's just saying reality. We don't want to spend $100 to start. I got my first setup was the pre rig chubb's lures or lunkers Hunt lures no salt weedless needs on the cheep on monofilament line. The $20 setup first time to try out if I like it. No salt float best just saying if you want it to floating bait. To lay on the bottom of the floor get bait with salt 🧂 is Ned's bait Crippten night.
Hey guys I love tuning in and you have never steered me wrong. Im looking for another spinning rod setup. I currently use a Shimano Sahara 3000 on a St Croix Mojo Bass 6'10'' Medium Light. I am torn between the Ultegra and the Nasci. I would use it for various types of presentations it won't be just for Ned Rigs. In the description it says your preferred set up is the Ultegra 1000 or for budget the Nasci 2500. Which would you guys go with I'm not super concerned with the 50 dollar difference in price if its worth extra performance. Finally, would you combine it with the Shimano Intenza 7'6'' Light or get another St.Croix Mojo Bass I have been really impressed with mine so far
My most used plastic, CPF is my go too ned. The Powerbait Chigger Craw is my go too for a guarantee bite, something about it that it works better than anything else. I use an EWG Ned Rig for a lot of versatility in bait options. My shimano sensilite rod with a bfs reel is my fun setup for ned rigs or my ultralight spinning combo, these two are a blast when I hook a fish.
There is a picture of a boy around 9 or 10 years old with a 13 lb Largemouth at my local bait and tackle shop. The guys at the store told me that it was his first time fishing with his dad and on his first cast using a Ned rig caught that fish.
I started ned fishing on the Illinois river backwaters 7 years ago. 1/8 th head with a shaped worm. I was catching 30 largemouth a day. I don't think fish will get conditioned to like other baits.
I'm gonna let you in on a secret: using that 6'10" medium light rod, 1000 series reel, and light- really light tackle- you're maturing as an angler. As you get older, you'll find youself using that particular rod more and more. It's more comfortable, laid back, and easy to use. You'll put your crankbait, spinnerbait, buzzbait, and generally heavier rods and techniques away in favor of it. I know I did. It just comes with age. Next thing you know, you'll only be sitting down and crappie fishing!
@@tacticalbassin lol absolutely! I will have to make another order to Tackle Warehouse!! I definitely will be adding a few of those baits you all talked about to my arsenal!
I really love your videos I fish a lot but have no one to teach me this stuff you guys really help me up my game but the like I fish is supper supper clear like 10-15 feet of visibility any tips for that.
Great video!! You guys should start fishing for grinnel (bowfin) they fight so hard but they are not huge. I would much rather hook a grinnel than a largemouth any day. Not saying you shouldn’t fish for largemouth but just to try another fish. They are really underrated so I think if you guys started talking about them then more people would fish for them.
I wonder how this Ned rig technique would work on Australian bass...from your description I would have to cast the bait towards schooling fish in winter..Your white bass is supposed to be very similar to our Australian bass... So does your white bass eat Ned rigs???
I picked up an $80 medium light Pflueger Trion combo at Bass Pro and threw some Yo Zuri #8 topknot mainline fluoro on it and have been having a blast using it as my ned rig setup. Cheap setup but tons of fun. GP and Junebug are my go to colors and they have been slaying the large mouth in the pond I fish.
How do y’all not have podcast channel yet ? We love the TH-cam channel obviously, but just thinkin it would be a perfect fit for y’all as well just another outlet for your brand. I mean let’s face it these day you guys info an love for the sport have brought more people into it with success which keeps them in it and grows the sport even more. I don’t know how many times at work I walk by a person with the phone out listening to your channel as they work more then watching including myself 🤣. Pausing it at key points and writing the bait down or screen shorting the bait 🤣 ... again love your channel enjoy all your videos always learning from ya and soooo happy y’all landed in TN excited for the new yr of vids 👊😎👍🍻
I haven't been fishing quit sometime and all your show are assumed and love them. keep them come. Just moved to AZ and just started gearing up and taking notes. Thanks
Great info. I just used the TRD Crawz in green pumpkin on a Ned rig mushroom jig head with fluorocarbon on a new medium light spinning combo and caught three fish at night when my go to senko was just not working. Thanks again for the great tips!
Great video as always! You guys have improved my fishing so much since I started watching your channel. Once the buyers guides are over, you guys should do a video on how to find out what the bass are eating. I don’t know whether the bass in some of my lakes are eating gills, shad, shiners, sculpin, or crawfish. Your insight would be immensely helpful
Yeah they'll melt everything else. I put some Z-man with some 3 inch Senkos and watched your first Ned rig video a few weeks later when you first gave that advice, Sure enough all of them were a gooey mess.
I got schooled on ned rig by a older fella out here in eastern nevada...never forgot it, and next to the Texas rig, is one of my favs....thanks guys for the hard work
Hey guys, I need help I have lived in Florida my whole life,but I live in the bay area ca. now for work. How in the heck do you catch these resivoir fish off the bank?
Lets see if you can solve my 2 month dry spell. water is cold enough to ice over but not thick enough to walk on. there are open water spots under spillways and where the current is flowing. the river main channel also has no ice yet. what should I throw to catch anything? and where should I go? mississippi river pool 8 and nearby. Wisconsin side
I like a dobyns fury 661 lite paired with a daiwa regal lt2500 and 5lb k9 braid down to 6-8lb red label seagaur leader. Another probably lesser known bait that I like to use for the ned is the Nikko craw or Nikko hellgrammite.
I like the bugz and OG TRD the best. I haven’t tried the Ned rig enough yet to say weather or not the others are as good for me. But I’m sure they are going to be as long as I get a good color!
I have thrown a couple of z man Ned rigs in with a different brand not thinking nothing about it and after you mentioned about mixing them I dug that box out and what a melted mess but the z mans are solid as a rock lesson learned
I have a question if you could have only one weight head which would ut be.....i want to try ned rigging but until im sure i like it i dont want to buy alot of different weights yet
Do you guy's ever use scents on your ned rigs? My water it less than a foot visibility and wonder if scent would help at all. I still catch em, just want to know your take on it.
Matt and Tim, Nice to see you devote an entire buyers guide to The Ned Head a finesse style bait. Tossing one of those on Matt’s Conquest casting rod would be nice. I can not fit a Conquest in my budget but if anyone is looking to go finesse and use a bait caster I suggest the Phenix Feather 7’ 1” light 4 to 10 lbs line weight. Don’t let the low line rating fool you. This rod has a lot of backbone once you get into it, nice soft tip to load up those light lures. I have horsed a few 3, 4, 5 and 6 lbs small mouth and large mouth on it. A joy to fish with,very light in hand paired with the right reel. A balanced combo as you mentioned in your recent video. I am waiting for the Curado K MGL to become available so I can pair the two up. I think it will be the perfect budget finesse combo. Tight Lines to all.
Have y'all tried the Daiwa Steez SVF AGS 7'6" MML. I'm a Shimano guy but that rod fishes better than the NRX 901 or 902 and has a crazy weight rating of 1/16-3/4 oz and it could easily replace the NRX 872S too.

Back in the day when your senko ripped you bit it in half & boom ned rig. Now it has it's own aisle in the sporting goods store.
Right? 20+ years ago the neds been around...just never picked up because there was no internet to boost it, imo.
Back in the day we had to walk uphill in the snow to school, both ways! Only had one pair of boots between the three kids
@@crashmanjones7286 exactly my thought whenever I hear people talk about back in the day. lol.
Yup, I would save my torn up senkos to use on a weightless T-rigg on pressured ponds. That gets bit when nothing else will especially when they are just big enough to be rigged on the hook properly.
But it wasn’t rigged the same way!
Hey my name is Phoenix I’m 13 I know this is off topic but thank you so much for helping me catch my pb 7.42 on a swim jig from watching your vids. Hope I get to meet you I’m in East Tennessee
what is your home lake or river. I also live in east tennessee

Good for you bro keep on fishing
Absolutely insane how the ned rig has taken off! New age beetle spin minus the spin lol
“You called me a hoarder...”
“...I haven’t had these for 20 years”
Matt Allen’s infectious laugh ensues
😂😂😂
Definitely a genuine laugh lol
Thought I spied the Legend logo last vid... Any news?

The israelites followed a bearded guy across the water. I follow these bearded guys into the water every day.
God is good
The energy you guys bring to the bass fishing community is unmatched
I take it you've never watched Richard Gene The Fishing Machine??? I'm talking 'bout WOOOOOOOO!!!! 😄
Tim's combo is so high end that they don't even mention what it is.
🤣
That combo cost so much. When you go to the tackle shop to buy it and ask how much is it all together with tax. They write the number on a piece of paper and slide it over to you
@ Bruce Wilson don’t forget special financing for 24-36 months lol

Good question
Yes.
Because ap is entertaining and unpredictable. While giving information on a variety of things these guys videos are all the same. They are more like a reference book than a narrative.
Best bass fishing channel on youtube. Hands down.
Matt invents the word “waggle” and cat stop using it haha. From swimbaits to ned rigs, it applies!!!
Good summary. Any good options for weedless Ned heads for brushy water?
Ah ned rigs. More my speed for winter haha. I like the z-man heads & trd. Also strike kings coffee infused ned plastics Catch them. xzone has caught me some too. Usually dip all tails in jjs magic. Thanks for vids.
Strike king 3 inch cut r worm works well too. Caught a 3 lber on it drifting behind my jon boat.
Y’all need to try the bigger zman creature baits like the palmetto bug which is a bigger bugz.
They have they have underwater videos with video of this bait underwater
Y'all gotta try the SK Rage Ned Bug. On a ned head or paired with a really small finesse jig lile the bitsy bug.
Terrific summary TB! Thanks. Hey, whose boat is the Legend that your using in this video?
I love the video keep em coming. They are a big help.
Ps. I also woke up early again just to watch your video.
I just recently tried a non Zman Ned.. the sukoshi bug. It has been unreal good for me this year. Great video as always!
That bait is awesome very underrated bait chris zaldain girlfriend trait swears by that bait lol
Watching your guys older video on ned rigs as a just got some... Oh look 4mins ago new video on ned rigs lol. I needed this! :)
Never fished a ned rig before. I also skunk often, so here we go!
When the fishing is tough the dropshot used to be the last resort. Now it’s the ned rig for sure! You’ll get some bites for sure
Look into the finesse free rig as well. Thank me later lol
Never had even a bite on any soft plastics lol I try everything too.
@@stpbasss3773 I’m the opposite, never got a bite on hard baits. Ive caught three craws on squarebills but thats freakin it lol
@@DeadPool9206 oh I've never caught anything on hard baits either lmao. Nothing works, I foul hooked a bass with a jerk bait but that doesn't count because I just randomly ran into the side of him.

Over a year ago you guys turned me onto the Missile baits Ned rig bait. It’s a fantastic lure. Really enjoying the buyers guide vids.

Although I am not much of a fan of the googan squad, they make an awesome ned bait that has rattles in it. They work well in stained water
I've never had even a bite on any soft plastics, I try everything from shakey head to wacky rigs to bed rigs NOTHING WORKS.
What do you guys think about the NRX 901 as a ned rig rod? Too light? Or is the 902 a better choice?....

can you please tell US megabass guys to tell Japanese megabass guys that we cannot find megabass in Turkey? 🇹🇷 thanx man
Was that Casey Kidder who you fished with? He was one of the first with Ned Kehde back here in Kansas who brought it to the fore front.
😂 Yes!

Hey guys, I need help
I have lived in Florida my whole life,but I live in the bay area ca. now for work. How in the heck do you catch these resivoir fish off the bank?
What’s your favorite finesse technique to do when it’s windy?
That’s a great question! Follow up with that: How heavy of a Ned head can you get away with in the wind?
Lets see if you can solve my 2 month dry spell. water is cold enough to ice over but not thick enough to walk on. there are open water spots under spillways and where the current is flowing. the river main channel also has no ice yet. what should I throw to catch anything? and where should I go? mississippi river pool 8 and nearby. Wisconsin side
I like a dobyns fury 661 lite paired with a daiwa regal lt2500 and 5lb k9 braid down to 6-8lb red label seagaur leader. Another probably lesser known bait that I like to use for the ned is the Nikko craw or Nikko hellgrammite.
You guys are by far the best informative Bass fishing TH-cam channel out there keep up the great work guys
I really like to use the Ned robo worms and the TRD on a split shot rig deadly for spotted bass it's 💵
This year in March I caught one that was 8.04lbs on a ned rig it’s the biggest bass I’ve ever caught
I love seeing you both filming together,,just another awesome video guys...
I'm not a fan a Googan baits, but their ned bait has rattles in it. Does great in stained water, check them out.
Yeah but they have 1/10 of the durability of the Zman TRDs. They fall apart after 2 or 3 bites and the rattle is gone
My Ned Rig set up is a 6’8 ML pro qualifier II with a Pflueger president!
I know googan baits are not everyone’s favorite but their Ned just works. *For me
Elaztech is the way to go when fishing a ned rig though. Plus the packs are $3.99 (in a lot of places) but last you a good month.
One key to fishing is keep it simple. If you spend more time thinking than casting you won't be successful.
I finally threw one. I got hung up on all 3 casts! Broke off each time! Screw this bait
I like the bugz and OG TRD the best. I haven’t tried the Ned rig enough yet to say weather or not the others are as good for me. But I’m sure they are going to be as long as I get a good color!
Keep the buyers guides coming. Need a video just for budget lures and plastics.
Most versatile Bait I have. I've caught trout,bass,walleye and a kokanee on the ned.
I have thrown a couple of z man Ned rigs in with a different brand not thinking nothing about it and after you mentioned about mixing them I dug that box out and what a melted mess but the z mans are solid as a rock lesson learned
is 12lb braid to a 10lb flouro leader safe for a 6'10 m spinning rod? any help with a ratio would be solid
I have a question if you could have only one weight head which would ut be.....i want to try ned rigging but until im sure i like it i dont want to buy alot of different weights yet
How can I eliminate ponds so I can concentrate on bodies of water that may have that fish of a lifetime, I’m in Massachusetts
legend boat i thought you guys were champion boat's? lol jk
I used a zoom salty ring worm on a shakey head to catch huge bass in the winter here in NJ we all have a throw back version of the ned !
Who's Legend boat is that? Did the guys pick up another rig?
I like how Matt’s budget combo that he uses is still a $400 combo ,
Z-mans 100% crushing them prespawn right now.
Matt you need to cut some of that hair. Maybe because I don’t have much or what? Lol
Zman TRD
(Turd). Come on man. Only one here giggling.
I need to throw the ned rig more... Great info as always!!
I've had a lot of luck with the googan baits rattling ned. Lots of big bass on it
Ill throw my wife out there in 50 feet of water and let her sit and call it chika chika chicken head.
Is there a actual EWG Ned head that you guys recommend?
The Owner ned head tim recommended comes in ewg! I use it all the time
What length rod should I be using? Thanks guys!
$1500 setup to throw a ned rig. The struggle is real.
Since moving to the east side of the US. Have you notice any changes in more used baits, fish attitudes, using more baits then others ?
I love the videos, but I sure wish you guys would be a close-up shots.
Do you guy's ever use scents on your ned rigs? My water it less than a foot visibility and wonder if scent would help at all. I still catch em, just want to know your take on it.
Where did you get that tackle box at the beginning of the video
I was wondering if there is a way to get the hoodie you guys wear that has the net pattern on it?
Could of used some weadless rigging options
Who bought the Legend?
Its a friend's boat... he'll probably be surprised to see it this morning 😂
Eagle claw has the best ned head
I have the problem of getting hung up with the ned rig.
Get the z man o es with the wire brush guard
Try a lighter weight head. The Missile Baits NedBall Heads come through rock VERY well. They're brand new and on TW.
smallmouth don’t like chartreuse?
Matt and Tim,
Nice to see you devote an entire buyers guide to The Ned Head a finesse style bait. Tossing one of those on Matt’s Conquest casting rod would be nice. I can not fit a Conquest in my budget but if anyone is looking to go finesse and use a bait caster I suggest the Phenix Feather 7’ 1” light 4 to 10 lbs line weight. Don’t let the low line rating fool you. This rod has a lot of backbone once you get into it, nice soft tip to load up those light lures. I have horsed a few 3, 4, 5 and 6 lbs small mouth and large mouth on it. A joy to fish with,very light in hand paired with the right reel. A balanced combo as you mentioned in your recent video. I am waiting for the Curado K MGL to become available so I can pair the two up. I think it will be the perfect budget finesse combo. Tight Lines to all.
Love the buyers guide videos keep em coming!
Have y'all tried the Daiwa Steez SVF AGS 7'6" MML. I'm a Shimano guy but that rod fishes better than the NRX 901 or 902 and has a crazy weight rating of 1/16-3/4 oz and it could easily replace the NRX 872S too.
