Frog Colors

[OntarioFishingGuy]

What do you think the best colors for frogs are. If it helps any, i live in Ontario. I normally use the Koppers Livetarget fogs over weedbeds and mats. 

 

Thanks a bunch

Couldn't have said it better myself, except to add a translucent color when they seem to by just boiling but not taking a solid color in clear water. I have seen it help turn the slappers into biters. It didn't seem to matter what the color was, just as long as it was translucent.

Different situations call for different colors, but my favorite is probably Booyah's Swamp Frog color.

Find the color that matches the frogs that live in the waters you fish..Go Koppers.

[Bankbeater]

That Booyah look just like a Spro.  I think its called Green Tree color.

As somebody said different conditions/situations call for different colors.

General rule I tend to do is "match the hatch" try to get colors similar to the type of frogs you see at your local waters.

But then again I have never seen a black frog and that is my go to frog color, when fishing my soft plastic frogs.

[Montanaro]

Black and white

Bonus for a bright neon color on the top just so you can see it better, not for the fish.

I have said this before= The bottom of the frog color catch's the the fish the top color of the frog catch's the fisherman!!!! The fish never see' the top of the frog!  Just give me black and white frogs and I am good to go!

[BradGuenette]

I have two colors of frogs in my box, Black & White no need for anything else.

I generally do better with darker colors

[nowicki2005]

Does the color matter as much when you're fishing over pads or thick mats? Or is the lighter colors in bright light darker in dark light apply to more open water situations

For me it has to do with color of the water and overcast or sunny. If overcast and clear water I may go white  but if slop or a sunny day then black I would throw! Open water these rules are the same for me BUT, I may want some red or chart. on nose or belly of the white frog in a clear water open water area.

Light=Light Dark=dark. Equation finished.

I love black belly and white bellys. Just depends what color,they want. Ive had days where black doesnt get looks but white is smashed and vice versa. Also brown bottom is great .

[Bass NC]

Honestly I've oy thrown black, yellow and green frogs and the fish seem to respond equally well with all of them so I don't think color is as important as presentation.

Pretty much sums it up for me, as well.

Gotta love frog fishing!

Match the frogs usually. We have a lot of bullfrogs and greenfrogs here, as well as a lot of toads. So greens and browns tend to do best. When going for a reaction strike, bright colors on bright days and dark colors on dark days.

Black.

[OkeechobeeAngler]

This. The frogs in S.Fl have white bellys and they appear darker as it gets darker.

I like to use the sexy bull frog color in the spring. In the winter i use other darker more nautral colors

[MichiganFishing1997]

The all white Booyah Pad Crasher works well for me. I mainly aim for a darker color belly when its overcast or darn stained water, and a lighter belly when its sunny or clear water. I think how you fish it is more important, if I want to fish through pads, and similar cover id use something like a pad crasher. If I want to fish slow il use a lunker hunter, if I want to make a lot of noise il use a popping frog, and then lastly if I want to burn it across the top il use a buzz frog.

Pretty much like everyone else has said, I worry more about the color of the belly of the frog than the back. I've done well on black, white, and chartreuse, with chartreuse being my favorite during the day and black my favorite during low light conditions/night.
