My New Favorite Finesse Bait

From the first time I saw the "Ned Rig" I knew it had the power to transform my reluctance to finesse fish into a new love for fooling picky bass, and after putting it to the test during some tough conditions, I can say with confidence- I have found my new favorite finesse bait.

Umbrella Rig Fishing

The umbrella rig is one of my primary winter time baits. Actually it's 5 baits on one rig consisting of a head and 5 wires with swivels on the end of each wire.
