Gpecore88 Posted July 20, 2013 Posted July 20, 2013 Hey! I'm going on a big fishing trip and want to buy a new top water frog. Just comment if you guys have any suggestions for me. Quote
Super User aavery2 Posted July 20, 2013 Super User Posted July 20, 2013 Jackall Iobee, walks fantastic, and is very durable, good hooks and does not take on a lot of water. Quote
Global Moderator Mike L Posted July 20, 2013 Global Moderator Posted July 20, 2013 I've tryed them all..Still own them all...But I'm partial to the Scum Frog. Mike Quote
dddyfz27 Posted July 21, 2013 Posted July 21, 2013 I use the Spro frog and I love it. Really easy to walk the dog. Strongly recommend bending the hooks up. Quote
BuckMaxx Posted July 21, 2013 Posted July 21, 2013 Livetarget or the ones off ebay for half the price. Quote
basshole8190 Posted July 21, 2013 Posted July 21, 2013 Spro bronze eye popper frog in midnight walker or albino. or pad crasher from booyah they are surprisingly soft and durablewith really good hooks and a slightly smaller profile The kvd frog is ok but you have to tune the hooks a bit for better hook ups Quote
hookset on 3 Posted July 21, 2013 Posted July 21, 2013 I really enjoy the Booyah Pad Crasher for all-around use. In the pads, walking over submerged weed beds or working it around visible cover. They're short money ,too! Quote
Blues19 Posted July 21, 2013 Posted July 21, 2013 Ive only used the spro Bronze eye frog and love it. dont see a need for another kind. Quote
Super User Bankbeater Posted July 21, 2013 Super User Posted July 21, 2013 I like the Spro bronz eye. I walk the dog with it, but my best luck comes when I work it across the surface like a popper. Quote
Super User Jrob78 Posted July 21, 2013 Super User Posted July 21, 2013 After fishing all of them, I've settled on the Jackall Iobee and Snag Proof Ish's Phat Frog. I think those are the best two frogs on the market right now. I am interested in trying the Spro Bronzeye Shad when it comes out though. Quote
buzzfrog Posted July 21, 2013 Posted July 21, 2013 I've fished them all extensively, Iobee and the new booyah poppin are great. My new booyah is so DANG soft. I am frog addict and use them all though Quote
War Eagle 44 Posted July 21, 2013 Posted July 21, 2013 I won't claim to have fished with all the different brands out there but I have fished my share, I like the Spro Bronzeye & Bronzeye Jr the best. Killer Gill is a great color as well as Outback. Quote
Super User AK-Jax86 Posted July 21, 2013 Super User Posted July 21, 2013 I keep seeing Spro and Booyah HAH those ones fail in comparison to Stanley Ribbit hollow body frogs! Try it and see how many more strikes and hook sets you get with it over any other frog. Try them out come back here and like my post lol Quote
shawnmc Posted July 21, 2013 Posted July 21, 2013 Ish's Phat frog and River2sea Bully Wa are by far my favorites. I have the new River2sea Spittin Wa coming in a few days so I'm looking forward to that one. 1 Quote
Super User ww2farmer Posted July 21, 2013 Super User Posted July 21, 2013 I like the Spro, but I love the Strike King KVD frog. The SK frog walks easier, skips better, has a rattle, has a strong quality hook, is a little cheaper to boot. BUT the only downside, is it's softer plastic so it wont last as long as a Spro. Both will get water inside them, but usually out of habit, I squeeze them every half dozen casts....so it's NBD to me. I have worn a half a dozen of them out this year alone, but they are good for 40-50 fish before they are shot..................good enough for me. Hooks ups on either ( or any frog I have used/tried) have never been a problem for me, 99.9999% of frog hook up problems are user error in the first place. Quote

Your post kind of surprises me because I've found just the opposite. I think it's much easier to walk a Bronzeye, and, of the samples I've fished from both companies the Spro baits were softer. I guess this is just another example of everyone not liking the same thing, which is great because this is the reason why we have so many frog brands to choose from. Quote
Preytorien Posted July 22, 2013 Posted July 22, 2013 I've surprisingly had good luck with the super cheap Matzuo frogs. I think I picked mine up at a department store. I prefer the smaller sizes than larger. They may not walk as well as some more expensive frogs, but I've had excellent hookups and weedmat effectiveness. One thing though, these do need the water squeezed out about every 10th cast. Quote
Super User BassinLou Posted July 22, 2013 Super User Posted July 22, 2013 Spro's are nice frogs, however, when I came across the Live Target frogs I have not looked back. I cannot speak of the other frogs, but the koppers frogs last a while. I have landed 50 bass on one, before it was torn and it would take on water and sink. Quote
