Prime time frogging is upon us with the grass matting up in the bays and coves and out on the main lake flats all over the country. It’s had all summer to thicken and sprawl across the bays. Making catacombs and networks of underwater tunnels for bass to roam and forage on everything above and below the mats.
Froggin’ for bass generates some excitement with anglers and bass alike, and it’s a big fish technique too. Luckily a good frog really isn’t hard to find anymore. There is such a large market of hollow-bodied frogs now, and it seems like just about every color shape and size is available. One style of hollow bodied frogs we really like are the popping frogs. There are several on the market but a new one from Snag Proof caught our eye at ICAST.
The Snag Proof Ish’s Poppin’ Phattie weighs 5/8 ounce but casts like a much heavier frog. It’s 2 3/4-inches long and comes in 6 colors. The legs are already trimmed. The plastic is pretty dense. Anglers, however, will notice right out of the package the unique nose with a cupped mouth on either side of the nose. The design is not just different but necessary for walking smoothly over mats.
