Rick Carlsen reported catching Largemouth Bass using the Ned Rigs technique and Outkast Tackle Perfect Ned Head on Lake Minnetonka. Additional comments from this report: "Fish were still up shallow (7-12') with water in the 66-70F range. Inside weed lines on points gave up plenty of fish, but bigger ones were few and far between. If you see green slime, keep moving."

Bradley Leuthner reported catching Smallmouth Bass using the Ned Rigs technique and Outkast Tackle Perfect Ned Head on Lake Minnetonka. Additional comments from this report: "You really have to put in time to find them. Look in 8 to 14 feet. Lone boulders with sand around them. Seem to be the best."

M T reported catching Largemouth Bass using the Ned Rigs technique and Z-Man NedlockZ HD Ned Head on Medicine Lake. Additional comments from this report: "Fishing date of 5/22/2022. Cool morning, wake up temp of 48, got up to low 50's and was fairly breezy. Was out about 4 hours. Caught about 8 bass, 3-ish pike. Water temps around 60 up to about 62. Bass seemed to be spawning somewhat, but not all. Definitely caught some pre-spawners as well. Caught some fish on a jerkbait, but primarily more finesse on a ned rig around some docks. Mostly caught small and medium bass. Did see some larger fish on beds, but always tended to be after it was too late and spooked them. Then they had no interest."

Water levels were quite low since the start of summer but it’s also helping making the vegetation easier to see from the docks. We had solid hits pitching ned rigs under and into openings in the weeds and pulled some chonky catches as twilight began.

Scott Clark reported catching Largemouth Bass using the Ned Rigs technique and Z-Man Finesse ShroomZ Jighead on Lake De Montreville. Additional comments from this report: "Slowly hop the ned rig through the grass in 3-5'. The grass mats are easily visible. A chatterbait with a goat trailer worked over the grass caught a few, but the ned rig was more successful. "

Ben Korhonen reported catching Smallmouth Bass using the Ned Rigs technique and Z-Man Finesse ShroomZ Jighead on Lake Vermilion. Additional comments from this report: "The fish are pushing up shallow with some fish on beds. Fish seemed to be relating to trees overhanging the water or by lay downs. Skipping a ned rig under the trees produced a lot of qual fish. "

M T reported catching Smallmouth Bass using the Ned Rigs technique and Z-Man Finesse ShroomZ Jighead on Lake Vermilion. Additional comments from this report: "This report is for 10/1/21 to 10/2/2021. Weather is unseasonable warm and humid, with on and off rain and drizzle. Huge algae bloom with bright green near shore. I think this warmth made the fishing a bit tough as the fish don't know if fall is coming or what is going on. Started out fishing with some chatterbiats and topwater with no luck. Noticed lots of walleye anglers fishing pretty deep so tried out fishing nearby for smallies, with a little luck on the drop shot around 15 to 20 feed deep. Overall fishing seemed pretty stingy. Finally started catching them on a ned rig near docks and some flats outside of spawning bays. Overall great trip, wished we would have caught a few more."
