The effectiveness of the Ned rig has made it immensely popular over the past decade or so, enough so that bass have gotten used to seeing tiny stand-up worms.

Great Lakes Finesse (GLF) is upping the ante on this technique with a different profile of bait that is ideal for the Ned rig technique.

The GLF team quickly figured out the proper profile, which is craw-like and ribbed and has slender appendages that provide just the right amount of movement. However, they spent nearly two years refining every detail and getting critical confirmation from the fish that the Ned Bug was perfect.

A vital feature that grew out of the testing stage is a slit in the head, which allows the bait to bend back, exposing much more of the hook for solid hooksets and a high fish landing percentage, even with a small No. 1 or 1/O hook.
