Castaic Frog Brigade Umbrella Rig

[MarkH024]

_{I do a LOT of frog/slop fishing. Have any of you attempted to use this thing?  I would think the hook up ratio would be less in that you have more slack to deal with.  It looks like it would be a nightmare pulling out of some really thick pads/weed mats. I'm not really interested in getting it, just more interested in the stories that you guys might have from your experiences.}

It's funny you posted this because I was just looking at them today on TW. I will be curious to see others experiences.

Yea that is where I glanced at it.  I have never seen or heard of this rig so I was curious if it is new to the market but it's got reviews already so I'm assuming its been out for at least a year.

3/2013 Field & Stream. 2 out of 5 stars. PITA to cast, tangles, junk collects on snaps. Made a good point too. When was the last time you saw 4 frogs swim in formation?
