Best Neko Rig Reel

Nate Nipper reported catching Largemouth Bass using the Neko Rigs technique and Shimano Vanford Spinning Reel - EOL on Lake Ida (9). Additional comments from this report: "Using 360 to find irregularities in the coontail edge helped to produce a lot of quality fish. Both the neko and jig worm were producing. Neither one really out-fished the other. Both using a GP Zoom trick worm. The jig worm did seem to keep the buttoned up a little better though. Couple nice smallmouth mixed in off the same stuff."

Frog Walkin reported catching Largemouth Bass using the Neko Rigs technique and Daiwa Tatula MQ LT Spinning Reel on Lake Elmo. Additional comments from this report: "Hump day produced several fish out of clumps of submerged vegetation in 4-8 feet of water. Throwing a weedless neko, rigged for maximum spiral effect. It has produced all summer."

Fish were up fairly shallow early and the finesse jig was a major player. As the day wore on we slid out deeper catching them on Neko Rigs and Drop Shots. No truly big fish but lots of bites today.

JP reported catching Largemouth Bass using the Neko Rigs technique and Daiwa Tatula MQ LT Spinning Reel on Chesapeake Bay. Additional comments from this report: "The Tatula Elite Chris Johnston Ned Rig rod is the rod you want for Neko rigging. It's a soft tip medium action rod. Perfect length, action, and power. Skipping docks and grass edges i worked that neko during the slack tides. There are lots of good neko baits but I lean towards the Daiwa one most of the time. Just gets bit. That VMC neko hook is special as well. They stay pinned! "
