Quick take
A 2.75-inch finesse soft plastic designed for ned rigs with a buoyant construction and quad tentacles.
A 2.75-inch Ned rig bait in Hot Snakes, sold as a pack of 8. The thick, dimpled body has four spread tentacles and buoyant ElaZtech material, so it stands up off the bottom at rest. It suits bass anglers who fish finesse jigheads such as ShroomZ and NedlockZ.
