Z-MAN NedlockZ EWG 1/5oz Green Pumpkin 4pk

The Z-Man NedlockZ EWG jighead brings a proven design to one of today's most effective soft-plastic rigging systems. Built around a recessed-eye mushroom head paired with a compact VMC extra-wide-gap hook, this 1/5oz head delivers the snag-resistant performance you need when fishing heavy cover. The molded keeper holds your plastic in place through repeated casts, so you can focus on working the strike zone instead of retying.

Green pumpkin is a go-to color choice across a range of water clarity and bottom composition — versatile enough for stained water and natural enough for clear conditions. At 1/5oz, this head sits in the sweet spot for Ned Rig presentations: light enough to maintain a slow, natural fall that draws strikes from neutral or finicky fish, yet substantial enough to cast a reasonable distance and maintain bottom contact. Whether you're fishing shallow brush, dock pilings, or rocky structure, this head-and-hook combo is engineered to slip through cover cleanly while staying weedless when it counts.

This four-pack gives you enough jigheads to experiment with rigging techniques, color combinations, and presentation styles across different zones on the same outing. Pair them with your favorite Ned-style plastics — swimbaits, creature baits, or finesse worms — and let the proven VMC hook point and gap do the work when a bass commits.

Frequently Asked Questions

What soft plastics work best with the NedlockZ EWG?

The Z-Man NedlockZ EWG is designed for Ned Rig presentations, which traditionally pair with lightweight soft-plastic baits such as swimbaits, creature baits, and finesse worms. The recessed eye and molded keeper secure your plastic without crushing or tearing delicate lures.

Is this jighead weedless?

The recessed-eye mushroom head design is snag-resistant and weedless-friendly when rigged correctly. The eye sits back from cover, and the hook gap is positioned to minimize contact with brush, grass, and woody structure — though true weedless performance depends on proper plastic rigging and presentation technique.

What size fish is the 1/5oz head good for?

The 1/5oz weight is scaled for finesse Ned Rig fishing, which is proven across a range of species and sizes. The light weight and slow fall appeal to selective or pressured fish, but you'll catch bass of all sizes on properly rigged Ned presentations.

How many jigheads are in this pack?

This pack contains four NedlockZ EWG jigheads, giving you enough to stock multiple rigs or experiment with different plastic combinations during a day on the water.
