Sure worked for me!I am pretty "green" at this bass fishing thing. Spent most my days chasing trout on the river. I was struggling up here in Montana getting bass to bite til...... I came across these. Think I saw it on a tactical video on YT. Up until this moment I had a PB of just under 2lbs. Decided to try the Ned. Threw one of these in Smallie magic on Zman ned head. Proud to say my PB is now a 6.2 lb Largey. Thank you Xzone, TW, and the boys over at Tactical. Highly recommend! Get ya self a few!
You'll be amazedHave used as a traditional ned bait with great success for the past 3 or 4 years. In looking at it one day, I thought it slightly resembled the Deps Coverscat so I rigged it weightless on a 1/0 Ryugi wide gap hook. Give it a try. You'll be surprised how well it cast and how productive it can be.

Comments: There is a rockpile in the middle of the lake I fish on and this bait gets bit. They have amazing action on a ned rig with the wobbly tail and the scent is incredible too. The only bad thing about it is its durability it's completely ruined after 3-5 fish or it might be the ned head and the keeper I'm using. Otherwise, a must have if you love ned rigs.

Comments: I mostly fish lakes, but recently fished the Mississippi River and murdered smallmouth and walleye on the Minnow Magic. 1/8-3/16oz heads and a tiny bit of chartreuse added to the tail for the dirtier water increased visibility and bites. The tail wobbles on the fall and makes the bait stand up. At current it continues to shake and wobble while standing which is very helpful. GP Purple and 309 also get smoked around Crawfish eaters

Comments: Tested these baits on a 1/0 EWG 1/8oz head with a bait keeper and was very impressed with the durability (10-15 bites before I changed baits). The bulb on the tail appeared to be buoyant and I was pleased with the colors. I have Bass Candy and Minnow Magic.

Comments: Ned Zones are some serious juice. The tail wobbles while sitting still. I've used them at night to fish the lights too and they work great. Between these and the finesse slammers, you won't need another ned rig bait...ever.

Comments: I am a crazy ned rig guy. River smallies eat these but they only last one or two fish. I will continue to use Zman and Roboworm in the future. These just don't last long enough.
From: John - Illinois 10/13/20
Comments: These are also my fav Ned bait. of course they don't last as long as a Z man, but who are we kidding nothing last as long as a Z. but these do seem to get bit more often. perch color is my favorite, and I don't even have perch in my lake (lake mead). Highly recommend this bait if you've Ned rigging in mind. buy a few packs, you'll regret if you don't.

Comments: This is my go-to ned rig bait and it's not even close. This thing outfishes every other soft plastic I've tried on a ned rig. The 309 color imitates a goby perfectly, that bulbous head provides just the right action in the current. I primarily use it in highly pressured, mud/rock bottom creeks and rivers during the winter, and the smallies maul the Xzone when they won't sniff at anything else in 30 degree weather. I will say the durability is not great compared to a Zman TRD, however it is definitely more durable than roboworms as well as being less expensive than all the alternatives. I would highly recommend to any smallmouth fisherman in a creek/river system, these things get it done.

Comments: Catches fish for sure but not that durable.
From: Unknown: 12/24/19
Comments: Pretty soft, only lasts a fish. Doesn't catch them nearly as well as the roboworm or trd.

Comments: This is my go-to Ned rig bait! Really durable and a lot of great colors. I also like that it's a slightly bigger than some of the other traditional baits. It helps me draw some bigger bites.
From: Brian: Longmont, CO 6/19/19
Comments: I just started using Ned baits. I've tried many with limited success. Then I got my hands on the Xzone Ned bait. Paired up with A 1/8th oz shroom head it is unbeatable on smallmouth anytime but really excelled on high pressured fish.
