EGbassing Posted March 27, 2019 Posted March 27, 2019 I just got a package of all the booyah frogs from DSG for $10. (booyah pad crasher, popping pad crasher, and pad crasher jr.) Which one should I use for different situations? Is there a certain time where the popping type is better, or where a smaller one is better? Quote
Dirtyeggroll Posted March 27, 2019 Posted March 27, 2019 Popping frog can sometimes work better when there is a little chop on the water. 1 Quote
NittyGrittyBoy Posted March 27, 2019 Posted March 27, 2019 Popping frog is my first go to, unless your fishing slop that won't let it pop properly 1 Quote

Dens228 Posted March 27, 2019 Posted March 27, 2019 Popper in chop, regular in heavy slop, I don't use the Jr. often but find that whenever either I or the fish keep missing switching to the smaller one increases my hookups. 1 1 Quote

Agree. Just to add to this; I tend to throw a smaller frog toward the end of the season when the lily pads are thinning out or if it's really bright/sunny and the vegetation is not really thick. I suggest you trim the legs, especially on the smaller frogs. Quote
Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted March 28, 2019 Global Moderator Posted March 28, 2019 I like the regular one in heavy slop, popper for fishing smaller clumps of grass or mats with lots of open holes and open water. The small one is a good option if they're seeing lots of regular sized frogs or striking at but not eating the bigger frogs. Quote
pauldconyers Posted March 29, 2019 Posted March 29, 2019 For a popping frog should you still try to "walk" it or do more of a popping action with your rod, cupping the water and splashing it? Quote
