Shaky Head vs Ned Rig

sorry, but this old timer is totally confused by all these different rigs. plus special rods to fish them. I have never tried any of them. my go to bait when the bite is tough is a 1/8 oz ball head or football head with a four inch finesse worm. I have caught everything from bluegill to muskie. never needed to change to any other rig. yeah, I know I'm behind the times, but it's easier to just hook a worm on a jig and be done with it, instead of trying to decide which of the many rigs to go with. personally, I don't think the fish really care. put the lure where the fish are and you will catch. when I need to keep the lure off the bottom I will go with a drop shot. if you feel confident in a certain rig, great, but I think it's more about the confidence then the rig itself.

Yup when you look at all these different rigs, they all have one thing in common, a jig head and a soft plastic/skirt.  As long as you are throwing something that gets down to the fish and can slowly bounce on or near the bottom, your probably gonna get bit. sometimes they may be a little shallower or deeper, or Sometimes they like it faster or slower, but they usually will hit it
