re: Froggin for Bass

Use a 7'3" heavy ghost rod, 65lb power pro braid, strapped with a shimano citica. 90% of my frog fishing is with a hallow body frog for throwing in pads or heavy grass. Will also use a popping frog and slowly work it through the gaps in pads. Just depends on the day. Brand don't really matter to me, usually throw h2o for the price. Have decent hooks and a little modifying helps em walk

Guy on our trip last week caught a 9.6 on a ribbit, I could only imagine...
I throw mine on a Skeet Reese Carolina/ Swimbait 7'6, lots of backbone, with a good fast tip, 60lb spiderwire, and a citica 7:1.
I used to do the countdown, but now I've started to just pause, reel down like a worm bite, when you feel her, set it. So far, haven't missed a fish this way.

My pop is a die hard ribbit fan, but he misses tons of fish on in. I like he hollow bodies. I don't seem to miss nearly as many with those.
I use a 7'3 heavy action rod with 65lb braid. I always trim about an inch off one of the tails for better action..

Good work.
I'm a big fan of the pivot frog these days on my heavy rod and the ribbit/zoom frog on the smaller rod

I am going to throw one a bit this weekend at Indian Creek. I predict zero bites.

Any of you like floating foam style frogs. I get tired of the hollow frogs filling up with water and not floating well.
I find the Stanley floating ribbit fun to fish but not durable at all.
I have used the old Strike King popping grass frog with good success.

The only frog I've ever had success with was that old single hook Bill Dance one. I probably caught 1 out of every 6 bites.

That's why I changed to the Snag Proof. They have a separate chamber for the hooks, the air is sealed up so it doesn't take on water.
