Right, that's why I was dragging a Carolina rig and some jigs around.
I am/was of the same school of thought. I was telling my friend that I couldn't understand how, with no appendages, the fish were finding these things. Like fishing with a tootsie roll.
I will have to say that I was fishing it with a lot of nervous action on the bottom but at the most, no more than I would do with a tube jig. I do think the intense action is what caused the increased hybrid hook ups, over LM & SM bite.
When I was on Lake Wilson fishing the Ned Rig, the presentation was 100% different.
Either way, It's one of my new favorite techniques.
Telling myself to stay with it regardless what happens is the hard part, but it paid off eventually.
Just like always...I take 5-7 rods and end up using only one.
