Ned Baits
## Soft Plastic Ned Rig Baits for Bass
The Ned rig is a compact finesse presentation that is effective when bass are pressured, feeding on small forage or holding in clear water. Barracuda Baits Ned-style plastics pair with light jig heads for a subtle profile that can be worked slowly along the bottom or through the water column.
Fish Ned baits around rock, gravel, docks, sparse grass, points and other areas where a small presentation can generate bites when larger baits are ignored.
### Fishing a Ned Rig
Use a light jig head and let the bait fall naturally. Drag, hop, shake or slowly swim the bait while maintaining bottom contact when appropriate. Adjust jig weight to match depth, wind and current.
Natural colors work well in clear water, while darker or higher-contrast colors can help in stained water or low-light conditions.
