Mad Scientist Tackle coats Ned Head Jig with brilliant UV coatings to achieve maximum radiance
Bass fishing hasn’t been the same since legendary tackle-tinkerer and notorious fishing journal-keeper, Ned Kehde, introduced the world to the “Ned Rig.” Originally a truncated plastic worm affixed to Gopher jig head, the bait has evolved over the years and there are now myriad soft plastic shapes being fished on variations of that original jighead.
Yes, hats off to the overall Midwest Finesse Fishing movement for this fish-catching alternative to big baits and power fishing. Hats off to Z-Man, too, for providing the Ned Rig with a buoyant plastic body, which is prerequisite to achieving that upright Neddyness when stationed on the bottom.
The second baseline for Ned effectiveness is employing a perfectly architected finesse jighead. The shape of its head needs to accommodate landing at different angles without rolling over – basically, a mushroom configuration. Moreover, a bonafide Ned jig must sport a fine and hazardously sharp hook with a reliable baitholder.
Sure, reputable Ned-style jigheads are widely available, but Mad Scientist Tackle has upped the ante with specially-coated jigs that are seen in any water clarity and by fish from afar. The company’s distinctive APEX Vision coatings replicate the reflection real minnows and other critters emit, a game-changer on pressured waters and for whoppers that have seen it all.
Anglers can choose between six colors: red, blue, green, gold, pink, and natural for the highest possible visibility in the visible, UV and infrared light spectrums. Currently available in 1/16- and 1/8-ounce, the Mad Scientist Tackle Ned Head Jig is the perfect weaponry for swimming, gliding, shaking, hop and bounce, or drag and deadstick cadences—whether you’re pitching smallies or chasing largemouths—or any species, for that matter!
“The Ned Rig is a fish-catching phenomenon, with more and more anglers fishing the jigging system all the time,” said Mad Scientist Tackle Sales Director and diehard angler, Patrick Kalmerton. “So, we knew we had to offer our APEX Vision coating in a super-sharp and well-built Ned Jig, too. It was a no-brainer.”
“What you get from our jigs is added visibility in all water conditions,” continued Kalmerton. “Not only are these jigs great for the clear waters where Ned’s typically get fished, we’ve also opened the door for fishing them in more turbid waters with the availability of the jig in eye-popping APEX Vision coating colors like green, red, blue, gold, and pink—besides natural for all around use.”
Kalmerton concluded: “Whether you’re fishing a Ned worm, craw, or some variation, the Mad Scientist Ned Head is the perfect building block for a great day on the water. The angler testimonials have been positive—everything from farm pond largemouth bass to Great Lakes smallies—and even some walleye and inshore saltwater guys who’ve adapted the Ned into their program.”
Ultimately, whether you’re a greenhorn or seasoned pro, the Mad Scientist Ned Head is a must-have for every tacklebox. Think a change in jig head color and coating can make a difference? From the remarkable results we keep hearing—yes, it can!
