I came home today to find an infestation of frogs!

[Redlinerobert]

And all I can say is I am beyond pleased!   I'm not so sure I want to use them, as they're literal works of art! 

They fit perfectly into a Plano 3700 Spinnerbait box.  I went a little nuts and ordered a bunch of colors.  Pictures truly don't do these frogs justice. 

Some of the finishes are supposed to represent  Brazilian poisonous frogs, there are also some that represent local varieties as well.  Then there's the Pinkie Frog, which I asked him to make one specifically for my wife.  They are all exceptionally well made! 

As they are all hand made, I sent Ken a picture of my boat, he made a frog to match!

Great looking baits Robert!

Keeping that bar set nice and high, I love it!

Wow they are a work of art, I would not fish them. Nice job

[Redlinerobert]

Thanks guys.  They are the creation of this guy.  They're hand made, one at a time.  I ordered like 2 months ago and just got them today.   I understand he sells basic frogs for less, but these customs run about $60 each.

Hi. My name is Robert and I have a problem. ?

I bought some of the clones to try them out but i am itching to get the custom ones...they are beautiful and they without  doubt, produce.

Wow, $600 worth of frogs!!!

They're beautiful, no doubt. Hope they
catch you a record!!

Signs and symptoms of compulsive (pathologic) fishing include:

• Gaining a thrill from taking big fishing risks. (lubricious priced lures)
• Taking increasingly bigger fishing risks. (buying multiple lubricious priced lures)
• Preoccupation with fishing.
• Reliving past fishing experiences.
• Fishing as a way to escape problems or feelings of helplessness, guilt or depression.

 

Funny this list came from the Compulsive gambling Symptoms found on Google. I just swapped the word fishing in for gambling. Man it fits perfect for some of us. 

 

[Redlinerobert]

Not me. I don't have a problem.

I got to say I didn't know they made such things. I collect old toolboxes so there ain't much I can say about this without looking like a hypocrite. As the man said before he kissed the horse, "Each to his or her own preference".

Those belong on a wall,under glass, in a gilded frame of gold , properly illuminated on a 24-7 basis

Same guy that invented the banjo minnow!

Beautiful collection, Robert!

Infestation eh? Nothing a little rodent killer wouldn't get rid of.

[Swamp Rat]

Ken does extraordinary work...you will love them....but maybe keep those safe and get his Clones for actually fishing...lol.

[Redlinerobert]

I think I have enough of these frogs to last a lifetime, and lock up a few for safe keeping.

 I am guilty of collecting the Spro Frogs. I love the color patterns even though I only fish 2-3 colors. I just like ordering a few new colors every month. I get the urge to buy cool looking frogs, and those Frogs do look awesome, but I will stick with my $10 addiction for now.

Those colors do look awesome for sure.
