Title: Missouri Finesse fishing (Ned Rig)
Post by: dchance on April 01, 2015, 11:59:52 AM: Very interesting technique and very popular in the Ozark Reservoirs like Table Rock and other surrounding lakes. Great way to catch fish.

We have been doing versions of it for a long time and didn't call it anything. That is kind of like drop shot. We did it for years but called it double rigging. We used a jig instead of a sinker on the bottom with a wacky worm above it.

I'm looking forward to giving the "ned rig" a shot with a swing jig this year.
