I’ve fished a Ned rig quite a few places throughout the country, but haven’t spent a ton of time in Texas with it. What’s your favorite lake to do it on? Also, if you get a chance check out my latest video on Fishing a Ned rig.

2nd that on Possum Kingdom, clear water side of the lake of course. Want to add Texoma to that as well. It will catch a few smallies and spots around Eisenhower.

Belton is a good Ned Rig lake.

I’ve never been to Bridgeport or Possum Kingdom. Heard good things. I have fished it on Texoma with a lot of success, especially with smallies. I’ve fished Belton quite a few times, but haven’t Ned Rigged that place. It looks like a great place to do it though.

Nice video. I fish Bridgeport quite a bit because it is the closest lake to me other than Eagle Mountain which I despise. Ned Rig around big shallow rocks there has been good sometimes, problem is most of those big rocks are out in the wind, and it seems the wind never stops out there so light baits and light line makes it difficult for me personally. Shallow cover on Bridgeport is extremely hit and miss for me. I rarely find 'em in that on BP. But I'm not that good at catching fish anywhere. sick

When I am not fishing I am thinking about fishing. And mostly what I should have done differently my last trip!

I caught the lake record drum on Stillhouse this morning with one. I rack up the drum on those things around rock.

That is cool and a heck of a battle I'm betting.
