Quick take
A soft plastic Ned worm with extra salt and coffee scent designed for finesse fishing and drop-shot rigs.
This Fire Craw Ned Ocho is a 2.5 inch soft-plastic stickbait built for Ned rig fishing. Notches along the body let air escape and add a quivering action on the fall and the pause. The crawfish-toned color gives bass anglers a bottom-contact bait that imitates a small craw.
