Love the scope shed as a Ned rig as well as the jig head minnow. Going to order some of the Becker's grape juice and Magic juice once I'm done with this video. And I use anything 3 1/2 inches or less as Ned rigs. Some incredible baits out there that aren't meant for meds that are great for a Ned rig. As well as 80% of the time my throat and ewg style Ned so you can literally fish it anywhere without getting hung up. I left 30 Mi north of Pittsburgh and I love my Smallmouth River fishing. Taking my annual summer trip to Vermont this coming weak. Unfortunately I can't take the boat this year so no Lake champlain. But I get the fish a lot of the local lakes and ponds out of the kayak which is incredible fishing up there. On top of the amazing scenery

Thank you! River smallmouth are a little different, generally more crawfish related but the Ned and tube are great choices!

Great info Matt. The one that surprised me the most was the crank bait. For some reason I always seem to rely on finesse baits when targeting smallmouth. Question, do you ever use a ned rig in heavy current? I usually only use it in slow water.

Yes! The Ned rig will be a big player in the st Lawrence river event!
