Weld's Largemouth Posted July 29, 2014 Posted July 29, 2014 I've never used it before, but I just picked on up at dicks. Looks interesting. Anyone use it before? Quote
jonnyblazex Posted July 29, 2014 Posted July 29, 2014 My ol man throws it all the time, green colored one. He actually missed a giant on it last weekend, hit it 2 feet away from the boat. He has caught a few bass and pike on it that I know of, and it seems like if nothing else is working, he will get a strike on the ol bass rat 1 Quote

RipzLipz Posted July 29, 2014 Posted July 29, 2014 Looks pretty similar to other scum frog type baits. Throw it on scum mats or heavy grass and watch them smack it as you pull, pop and twitch it. Don't be afraid to let it rest for up to a minute either. You might be able to walk the dog with it at the edges too - not sure. 1 Quote
Weld's Largemouth Posted July 29, 2014 Author Posted July 29, 2014 whaddya know, i type in southern lure co bass rat in youtube search and a video comes up of a guy fishing where i live, with the bass rat Quote
RipzLipz Posted July 29, 2014 Posted July 29, 2014 I love their Bigfoot frog. Bass annihilate it. Worth mentioning if you're not familiar with frogging...don't set the hook on the strike but rather wait until you feel the fish or count off 2-3 seconds and plow it home. Also, I used to fish mainly spinning tackle but started losing fish on frogs specifically. Changing to casting gear helped tremendously with better hook sets for me. Quote

I have that frog too, but once I got a fish on it the legs got pulled to one side.. Quote
