This is so disappointing! The moment that I saw these I was pumped and couldn't wait tot ry them out this frog season, but I've heard more negative reviews than positive. As a big frog user I'll probably try them out regardless, so you can expect a full review when I do.

Farmville, VA. I'm just fishing small local ponds

Fredericksburg - hunting run, motts, and local ponds are my thing

Finally we're getting some warm weather so I'm going to check out a few local ponds to see if I can get a couple first fish of the season. Unfortunately we just had that snow storm so I'm not sure how active the fish will be even with the warm temps this week. Any suggestions about how to fish ponds this time of year would be greatly appreciated. I do have an idea of what I'm going to do but I'd like to cross check my plan with what some of you more experienced bass-fisherman would do.

Thanks fellas, if I find a place to fish with a lot of sparse cover or submerged weeds that I don't think other lures are being very effective, then I'll get one. But right now I like working the frog in dense lily pad fields so I don't see a need for it. Thanks for helping me out on this one!

My favorite way to catch bass is using frogs and I crush them on the KVD Strike King, I mean I really have the technique down! So naturally I'm a bit skeptical about the Spittin' Wa. What're your experiences with it? I'd really like to hear from the avid froggers who've been using the typical hollow-body design forever and then gave the Spittin' Wa a fair shake.

I'm new to bassresource so I'd like to start off by saying hello to everyone who shares my pain of having to watch all those guys out in Cali surpass our states' record sizes seasonally, with the exception of Georgia of course (we appreciate that George (and Paul Duclos for letting that ~24 pounder go in Spring Lake)). And since it's my first post I'd like to give a "brief" background on myself since it's always nice to know a little something about the peopole you share a passion with. I've been saltwater fishing since I could stand up in a boat but I've only been into bass fishing since last May, which is probably a good thing since I probably wouldn't be doing so well academically if I'd gotten into it sooner. I'm an undergraduate double-majoring in physics and math, and I'm getting ready to head to graduate school to get a PhD in physics but I'm thinking pro bass fisherman now . . . it's safe to say that I'm obsessed (rather than using the "hooked" cliche). It's a mental game that is centered around one fish and I can't get enough of it, but I don't have to tell you guys because you are the ones sitting on a bass fishing forum right now ignoring other responsibilities. Anyways my goal in my first summer of bass fishing was to catch a 5# bass (I've never been one to set realistic goals) and I did! ....Welllll it was 4.8 but we round up in these parts and I ended up catching 4 that were 4-5 lbs and they were all on a Strike King KVD frog! So naturally the Flip in the Bird lure caught my eye. I'm going to order one but I'd like to match the hatch so finally here is my question: What kind/color of small birds (we're obviously not talking hawks) are native to the east coast? I'm in Virginia if you couldn't tell by my name. Thanks for reading my post and I hope that I didn't just waste 5 minutes of your life!
