STOP Fishing A FROG Like This (3 Frog Fishing Mistakes)

Frog fishing for bass is the probably the best way to catch bass. It doesn't matter how many bass you have caught on a frog, it never gets old!

Whenever I go frog fishing, it is really important for me to first make sure that my frog is ready to go. You really need to set your frog up for success. The way that I like to do this is by bending out the hooks (for better hook up ratios), timing the legs, and even adding weight to my frog at times.

A big mistake that a lot of guys make when using a frog, is they really always fish the same way. Sometimes fishing the frog a little faster or slower can really make a huge difference between you catching 0 bass and you catching big bass.

The last thing that a lot of anglers forget to do, is simply fish a frog in all conditions. A frog doesn't just work in vegetation. It can catch big bass in wood, under docks and on rocks. So just start fishing a frog more often and you will start catching more fish on it!

BassFishingHQ is dedicated to teaching people how to catch more and bigger bass. I will go over different bass fishing tips & techniques that will put more fish in the boat or on the shore. Whether you are just starting out or a seasoned tournament angler, my goal is to help you catch more bass.

Thanks for sharing your tips. One other thing I learned the hard way, and still have issues with is when I get a hit on the frog, my natural reaction is set the hook. I've been working on waiting a few seconds or even waiting to set the hook until I can feel the weight of the fish on my rod. Some days it's like dodging bullets when my frog comes shooting back at me.

When I’m in my kayak I throw the frog on the bank and hop it in like as if it’s real and typically as soon as it hits the water it’s GONE caught so many 4-5s lbers like that

Tyler I've been watching your vidoes for only two days. And the way you describe each lure and how to use them is just great. You really separate yourself from other anglers. Thank you for these videos

[jayparsons]

There's lots of fishing information on YouTube but you break it down so well You're definitely my favorite one. Great job appreciate all the help.

I love throwing the frog around wood and in shade pockets. My favorite frog is the booyah pad crasher. Its hookup ratio is really good especially if you modify it like you suggested. I'm eager to get out on the water and practice my skipping. That video you did on it was very good. 👊👍

I still say with proper gear and a decent frog modifications to the frog are completely unnecessary. Most people are missing fish while frogging because they're not using the correct gear. Either that or they're doing something stupid like the "count to three" method. If you feel the weight of a fish, swing. Run a long rod and heavy braid. Problem solved.

Boil your frogs to soften the bodies up also and helps with hookups

You are absolutely right about the frog. Caught my PB on a Booyah Popping frog in open water nearly 40 yards offshore between 2 Lilly pad fields, an 11 pound beast in my hometown lake in Ocoee, FL. Looking forward to seeing you fish the “Elites” nothing but good advice from you. Thank you!

you and tacticalbassin have some of the best fishing tips on youtube

[hunterjarnigan]

Something I like doing is down sizing my frogs if I feel like everyone is throwing the same size frog I’ll down size by either going to the smallest frog I can get or just taking the legs completely off. The best year I had on a frog was in August I got a 2in live target frog and took the legs off and flat hammered them when they wasn’t hitting the regular or bigger size frogs

[Mattcruger]

I love pairing the frog with the Lake-Fork frog trailer hook. It gets hung up sometimes and it’s not super durable, but has increases your hook up ratio tons.

[codycampbell]

Thanks bud! I love frog fishing as much as everyone !I agree with more frogs but the reality is you catch less but bigger weight! Thanks for the videos!

[Austin_Torres]

All right because of this video alone I’m heading out to the Delta this weekend and I’m gonna be working the frogs extremely fast

[wesmank]

I knew the first tip would be bend the hooks out. I have never bent the hooks out and I get a better hook up ratio than my peers that do not bend them out, and we fish a lot of frogs. This would definitely be something the Mfg would do if it really made a difference. Everything else I really agree with. Ultimately, thanks for the video.

Thank you for talking about cadence, I was definitely overthinking it

youre my favorite fishing youtuber who talks about these mistakes that anglers make and how to make imedaite repairs to correctly fix these mistakes so you can spend more time catching them. Ty you opened my eyes up to the fact that its not that i cant catch them on frogs its the fact that i needed to add weights to the rubber frogs with the holes in them, i personally don think its that big of a deal if the frogs sink to the bottom because i love fishing on the bottom and plus an advantage of sinking frogs is that i can determine the depth im fishing and search and slay these bass while i look for the agressive fish that are feeding. i wish they would manufactuer small ssize frogs like a 1/8oz frog.
