Super User eyedabassman Posted May 2, 2007 Super User Posted May 2, 2007 What color frog do you like to fish in the slop? Quote
Super User roadwarrior Posted May 2, 2007 Super User Posted May 2, 2007 Hmm... Most frogs are green. Maybe that would be a good color to try. : Quote
flyphisher # Posted May 2, 2007 Posted May 2, 2007 Horny toads, i have best luck with black/blue legs,green pumkin, and green pumkin/craw swirl.... Have seen days that fish will hit black/red spro frog before they will a natural green....under docks... :-? I think the retrieve is more important....plus the color of its belly. Cause that is what the fish see. So match frog color to water clarity, forage, etc...., but go one shade brighter or darker thinking about light conditions. After saying all this, I only see frogs at night, so whatever it is the fish think is running across the slop, he prollie doesnt think its a frog... bird,lizard,baitfish,big bug,.....just something to ponder.

Super User eyedabassman Posted May 2, 2007 Author Super User Posted May 2, 2007 I have been told that white is a good color that is why I did ask to get everyone's input. Quote
BOOYAH Posted May 2, 2007 Posted May 2, 2007 I have best luck with a white or a black/white swirl. Quote
BucketmouthAngler13 Posted May 2, 2007 Posted May 2, 2007 Black and natural colors work the best IMHO. Quote
wickyman Posted May 2, 2007 Posted May 2, 2007 White or tan on the bottom, and olive green on top, with black spots... It works best! Looks most natural to a fish.. Quote
zeppy Posted May 2, 2007 Posted May 2, 2007 the bottom of a frog is white, and the bass see the bottom, so i assume a white bottom would be a good choice Quote
Brad_Coovert Posted May 2, 2007 Posted May 2, 2007 White, Chartreuse and Black. I will throw them in that order. Brad Quote
Pa Angler Posted May 2, 2007 Posted May 2, 2007 Zoom Horny Toads, I haven't used a color that Bass didn't like. Quote
Avalonjohn44 Posted May 2, 2007 Posted May 2, 2007 I throw a Lunker City Salad Spoon, very similar in theory to a buzzing frog, and their version of pumpkin is a very murky muddy looking green, and does very well. I think any dark color will do pretty well. I worry more about color when there is less slop. The more slop there is, I think only shape and sound/vibration really matter. Quote
cuervoman13 Posted May 2, 2007 Posted May 2, 2007 I've had the best luck with Zoom Horny Toads (Junebug & Black) and a green and black Stanley Ribbit. Quote
SneakySnook Posted May 3, 2007 Posted May 3, 2007 Watermelon, white, watermelon with red flakes, and green pumpkin are the colors I use. Quote
Bass XL Posted May 3, 2007 Posted May 3, 2007 i like the spro bronzeye jr. in rain forest yellow Quote
Cephkiller Posted May 3, 2007 Posted May 3, 2007 I use white for bright conditions and black for low light unless the water is clear in which case I go natural. Quote
BassFishingMachine Posted May 3, 2007 Posted May 3, 2007 I use Greenpumpkin, or any other green color including chartruese. I also like the frogs with a white belly. Quote
Spencer W Posted May 3, 2007 Posted May 3, 2007 I would have to say my best producer is chartruese, but I'll use a variety of colors white,black,brown something natural. Most of the time Quote
jomatty Posted May 3, 2007 Posted May 3, 2007 for me it has everything to do with the light and water conditions. for hollow frogs i use the bronzeye that is green and yellow on bright days, white or the maroon-reddish one if there is a little stain and cloud cover, and black if the water is heavily stained or there is heavy cloud cover. ive even used a black frog at night with some success. soft plastics frogs are similar and i use green pumpkin or green pumpkin with a white belly when i can get away with it and black or darker colors when the water/light condition offer less visibility. matt Quote
