Z-MAN NedlockZ EWG 1/5oz Black 4pk

The Z-Man NedlockZ EWG 1/5oz jighead in black is purpose-built for anglers who fish Ned Rigs through thick cover without constant hang-ups. This four-pack delivers a recessed-eye mushroom head design paired with a custom VMC extra-wide gap hook—the combination lets you rig soft plastics weedless and keep contact with bottom and structure where bass actually hide. If you're tired of losing rigs to snags, the NedlockZ EWG reshapes how you fish finesse presentations in grass, wood, and rocky terrain.

The recessed eye keeps your line tucked in tight, reducing friction and catch on cover. The integrated molded keeper holds your plastic in place without slipping, so your rigging stays intact cast after cast. At 1/5oz, this weight works shallow flats, laydowns, and current breaks where a heavier head would bore through or spook fish. The extra-wide gap hook gives you a clean hook-set even when your plastic is thick or when you're fishing around obstructions.

Whether you're a Ned Rig veteran or new to finesse, this jighead cuts through the learning curve. Four per pack means you've got backups when you break one off—and you will, because that's the point. You're fishing where other rigs fear to go.

Frequently Asked Questions

What soft plastics work with the NedlockZ EWG jighead?

The molded keeper accommodates standard Ned Rig soft plastics. Z-Man's own ElazTech baits are engineered to pair with their jigheads, but the keeper works with most finesse-style plastics in the 2 to 3-inch range.

Is the NedlockZ EWG good for shallow water fishing?

Yes. At 1/5oz, this jighead is designed for shallow flats, laydowns, and light cover where you want finesse presentation without excessive weight taking you too deep or spooking fish.

Why choose extra-wide gap over standard gap?

The VMC extra-wide gap hook gives you more room between the point and the shank. This helps with hook penetration when your plastic is thick, and when you're setting the hook through cover or soft-bodied baits.

How many jigheads come in a pack?

Each pack contains four jigheads, giving you extras for when one breaks off in cover or during hard use.
