I went out to Gene Coulon park to do some shore fishing for bass. I was using a Ned rig and I ended up catching 2 rock bass. The week before, I had some good luck with smallmouth on the Ned rig. No luck this week. I finally got about a 1.5 lb smallie to hit a Rapala suspending jerk bait. Not as good as the week before, but it was nice to be fishing!

What is a Ned rig? I noted that the smallmouth bite dropped off for me last week. Funny thing, I did mangage to catch a couple suspend at about 40 feet over 120 feet of water. I think they were post spawn females.

The Ned rig is basically a finesse technique in which you fish a small plastic on a light jig head. Here's a good link

I'm new to this technique, but it seems to work pretty well. Good luck!
