Z-Man NedlockZ EWG Ned Rig Jig Heads (4-Pack)

Take Your Finesse Tactics Into Heavy Cover

The Ned Rig is famously effective when the bite gets tough, but tossing traditional open hooks into thick weeds or brush piles usually results in immediate snags. The Z-Man NedlockZ EWG changes the game by combining a classic mushroom-shaped jig head with a specialized Extra Wide Gap (EWG) hook, unlocking effortless weedless rigging for your favorite finesse setups.

Built around a custom, heavy-duty #1 VMC EWG hook, these premium jig heads are perfectly proportioned to allow downsized soft baits to move naturally without overpowering their action. The fine-tuned pull angles guarantee solid, instantaneous hooksets. Equipped with a molded-in keeper, your soft plastics stay pinned securely in place cast after cast, even when dragging your rig through dense vegetation or enduring missed strikes.

Key Features

• Weedless Rigging Capability: The extra wide gap hook profile lets you neatly bury the hook point back into your soft plastic, allowing you to target fish hiding deep inside snags and heavy cover.

• Premium VMC EWG Hook: Features a custom, heavy-duty #1 hook designed with precise angles to maximize hook penetration while remaining perfectly proportioned for compact finesse plastics.

• Stand-Up Mushroom Head: The iconic flat-bottomed head design ensures your soft baits rest vertically on the bottom, presenting an irresistible feeding profile to nearby bass.

• Molded Bait Keeper: A strategically integrated collar firmly locks your bait against the jig head, preventing slipping during hard, long-distance casts.

• Pro-Tier Construction: Delivers the exact same reliable weights and ultra-premium design as the standard NedlockZ lineup, upgraded for technical cover fishing.

Available Colors

• Black: A highly versatile, stealthy option that provides an excellent silhouette in both clear and dark waters.

💡 PRO TIP: When rigging buoyant ElaZtech soft baits weedless on the NedlockZ EWG, push the hook through the head, pull it down past the molded keeper, and rotate it. Before pinning the hook point back into the body, slightly stretch the plastic forward. This leaves a small pocket of slack in the material so that when a fish bites down, the incredibly stretchy plastic collapses away instantly, clearing the extra wide gap for a flawless hookset.
