Best Neko Rig Weight

Started the day fishing weightless wacky rigs, but when the wind started picking up I switched to Neko rigs to maintain control of my lures. Watermelon red always performs well in the Potomac on bright/sunny days when the water is not too stained. We were fishing submerged Hydrilla.

yng_grant reported catching Spotted Bass using the Neko Rigs technique and VMC Neko Weight on Lake Gaston. Additional comments from this report: "The first day we fished docks almost all day. Bites came all around the docks but better ones towards the corners of the docks. Day 2 we fished docks and fished main lake points and main lake grass. Most of my fish were caught on the neko rig. If we fished points or anything with some depth I caught them on the dropshot."

Dominic Altavilla reported catching Smallmouth Bass using the Neko Rigs technique and VMC Neko Weight on Black Lake (122). Additional comments from this report: "Caught fish all day long in slick calm hot weather. Biggest was 4.79. Weed edges in 4-5 feet of water seemed to hold the most fish."

Bradkraussoutdoors reported catching Largemouth Bass using the Neko Rigs technique and WOO! Tungsten Nail Weight on Otisco Lake. Additional comments from this report: "Outside weed lines adjacent to deep water or inside weed lines adjacent to docks would produce fish. When you found one multiple would be in that same area. A painfully slow presentation would do the trick. Cast into the edges and just let it fall, if it got hung up on the way down give it a little shake and let it fall all they way to the bottom. Let it sit for 20-30 seconds and repeat."

TerryB21 reported catching Smallmouth Bass using the Neko Rigs technique and WOO! Tungsten Nail Weight on Detroit River.

Ohio Angler reported catching Largemouth Bass using the Neko Rigs technique and Z-Man Neko ShroomZ on Alum Creek Reservoir. Additional comments from this report: "If you find the weeds you find the bass. They were all laying in the weeds and weed edges. The Neko rig was able to lure them out. Canst into the weeds and slowly work the rig through. Many times, they would bust it on the fall."
