Missile Baits owner Johnny Crews is back with The Bass University in the winter in Gadsden, AL to talk about fishing a Ned rig aka Midwest finesse rig. Lots of anglers look at the Ned rig and think there's not much to it. It looks like half a senko on a dropshot hook. There's no action, no appendages, rattles or anything flashy, just a chunk of plastic, and usually a tiny (1/10th oz, for instance) mushroom jighead. In this bass fishing educational seminar class, you'll learn some history behind the Midwest finesse rig, how it came to be known as the Ned rig, baits that people fish on the rig, why it works and ways to fish it.
