Strike King Rage Ned Cut-R Worm 3√π 9pk Moon Juice

The Strike King Rage Ned Cut-R Worm is a compact soft bait engineered for Ned rig applications and light-tackle finesse presentations. At 3 1/8 inches, this is a scaled-down version of Strike King's proven six- and seven-inch Rage Tail Cut-R designs, bringing the same proven action and durability to panfish, bass, and other light-bite species. The Moon Juice color in this 9-pack gives you nine ready-to-fish baits out of the box.

The Ned Cut-R's flat head design—just a quarter-inch wide with a circumference of roughly fifteen-sixteenths of an inch—cuts through the water cleanly and generates genuine movement even on a simple light jighead. The anterior section runs three-quarters of an inch and features 13 ribs along its length, creating texture and vibration that trigger strikes from finicky fish. This combination makes the bait effective on subtle presentations where a larger soft plastic would be overkill.

Strike King's Rage material holds up through repeated strikes and casting, so your 9-pack will last longer than single-use alternatives. Whether you're working shallow grass, light cover, or open water with a Ned rig, the Cut-R Worm's compact profile and action-oriented design earn its place in any finesse tackle box. Moon Juice is a go-to color for low-light and stained-water conditions where visibility matters.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Ned rig and what baits work best?

A Ned rig is a light finesse setup typically featuring a small jighead and a compact soft plastic body. The Rage Ned Cut-R Worm's 3 1/8-inch size is purpose-built for this application—small enough to mimic natural forage and light enough for sensitive presentations without weighing down the rig.

Will this bait work for panfish and smaller bass species?

Yes. The compact 3 1/8-inch profile and flat head design make the Ned Cut-R ideal for panfish, bluegill, and lighter strikes from smallmouth and young largemouth. It's equally effective in shallow grass and light cover where bigger baits would be ignored.

How long does a pack of nine baits typically last?

Strike King's Rage material is engineered for durability. With proper care and storage, a 9-pack will sustain multiple outings. Actual lifespan depends on fish activity and catch rate—you'll get more than one trip out of a pack in most conditions, but heavy action will consume baits faster.

Why is Moon Juice a good color choice?

Moon Juice is a proven color for low-light conditions and stained or murky water where fish rely more on silhouette and vibration to locate bait. It stands out visually without being overly bright, making it a reliable choice for dawn, dusk, and overcast presentations.
