The Best Frog?

[Big-O]

During a Championship tourn last Fall I got smoked by a friend in the back of the boat when he was using the Rage Tail Toad. I used Horny Toads, Ribbits and Bronze eyes but couldn't find the ticket. Finally got wise and started chunkin them too. Have to say they are a versatile frog design.

Bobby's Perfect Frog.

Never really cared for the toads.

spro bronzeye frog - do not waste your money on any other brand. any color will do. the hardest part about fishing thick cover is seeing your bait so stick with a white or yellow. i like the standard size and i do not trim the tail

7'6" heavy rod - may consider 7'10". longer rods allow you to cast farther and you can get a better hookset. bass pro nitro rods are perfect for froggin'

30 to 50 lb. braid - i use suffix. i prefer 50 lb. but 30 lb. will let you cast slightly farther

i suggest using a baitcasting combo

if you have the means to buy any reel, get a abu garcia revo. stx is the best.

i guess you guys aren't up on the CANYON PLASTICS 4.5'' frog , you guys are surely missing out !!!!  : i've used almost all of those frogs listed but they just don't compare to the canyon plastics !!!!

Frogs are green.

[bassin is addicting]

The Good old ScumFrog!!!  Not the bigfoot, but the original and the Trophy ScumFrogs

X2

can't beat the price or the performance.  to me they work just as well as the $8-$10 ones

Once again why make a poll that doesn't list every available product, why not just ask which frog each of us prefers to use?

I like Stanley Ribbits

Exactly.

I'll take a solid toad over a hollow frog anyday, including the venerable bronze eye.

My favorite toad is the Sizmic Pop'n Toad Floater, which can be chugged, walked, swum or buzzed.

Hot on its heels is the Stanley Ribbit Floater (in both cases, be sure to specify "floater").

I have been using the Boze Sumo frog for a few years now & don't have a reason to change. They work well for me.

I think it would be quit impossible to list EVERY frog, so it looks like he tried his best so cut some slack...its not like he gave 2 choices...  if u dont like the choices dont answer the poll :

[CHEVYRIDAZ]

Rage Tail by far for the buzz frogs. But i don't see the River 2 Sea croaker on the list so i'm out...............................................

Isn't that the same point that Catt was making?

Most members aren't even aware of the vast variety of available frogs, which doubles when you include toads.

As Catt suggested, why not ask the members, which frog or toad we each prefer.

That way, everyone gets to respond to the thread, and the poster discovers just how many effective brands there really are.

For me its the Strike King Rage Toad.

For a Toad I like the Strike King Rage toad and shad.

For the Hollow body I like the Spro frog with some minor modifications.

[goober0311]

+1 for river2sea, i have used alot of different hollow body frogs and found these to be really great. they don't fill up with water and they have a great action on them. also easy to make walk.

[7mm-08]

I've done pretty well with the poppin Spro but nothing beats the old fashion scum frog.  I fished the popper scum frog probably 90% of the time I was on the water this year and had my best year ever.  My fishing partner fished a ton with Spros and I bet I got double the hits.  I also picked up a Tru Tungsten frog which looks really nice but the plastic body is hard as a rock so I never really used it.

[tennwalkinghorse]

Zoommmmm Toads love them

[Mrs. Matstone]

Rage Tail  ;D They have always been very good to me.

[iceintheveins]

From the ones that I have fished I would say the Spro Bronze eye in terms of fish caught and strikes triggered. The bronze eye popper walks the dog better and doesn't take on water as bad.

[BassFishingMachine]

The other thing I would like to add is that there are basically 2 kinds of "frogs" listed here.You Have the hollow soft body ones and the ones which are referred to as "buzzing" frogs.Each one serves its own purpose and the bass may prefer one over another on a given day.

The buzzing frogs are used like a buzzbait and also gererally sink and can be dropped into holes or twitched in a subsurface manner along weedlines or over submerged weeds.The hollow body frogs can be walked or twitched and pulled along in some really thick slop.

So basically you would have to have the poll split into two categories since they are 2 totally different lures.

My all around favorite buzz frog is the ribits and rage tails.Favorite hollow frog is the bobbys perfect frog.

Exactly. I cannot answer this poll, they are 2 different baits entirely. This is like asking what is your favorite spinner, and then listing between rooster tails and terminators.

R2S... by far the best frogs ive used.. spro is a close second however

Snag Proof Bobby's Perfect frog. Greatest frog out.  Soft enough body for a great hook up ratio, hard enough to cast into anything and not get hung up, and great colors and hardware. Although I don't have a fish over 10 on one yet, I've had a single frog last through several 6-7lbers without any issues.

I can say the same for the spro!

With that said I refuse to vote because buzz frogs like the Rage Toad should not be considered "frogs" to me.

[bt fisherman]

i like sizmic toads jr green pumkin

[Primus]

Nice fish Simp, I'm sure those made your day. I prefer the Snag Proof Bobby's Perfect Frog, Spro Bronze Popper for hollow frogs. I like the Stanley Ribbit & Zom Horney Toad for Buzzin' Frogs. Next year I will have  to try the Gambler Cane Toad & River To Sea frogs since many on here reccomended them.
