The Best Frog? 2024


fishing user avatareyedabassman reply : 

I want to get into the frog fishing alot more this year, any input? Just would like to see what is the HOT frog.


fishing user avatarCatt reply : 

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   ;)


fishing user avatarBassin_Fin@tic reply : 

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. ;)

I've been looking but I haven't been able to find that thing yet.  And being that they just came out where have you been catching fish on them in January because I need to move there.


fishing user avatareyedabassman reply : 

They have been out for some time. Bass Pro has them Gander,Sportsman Warehouse just to name a few.


fishing user avatarInfidel. reply : 

Darn you're lucky. The Bass Pro out here doesn't have them yet and neither does their webiste. In fact the last time I checked, the Spro website doesn't even have them yet.


fishing user avatarbassdocktor reply : 

I didn't see them up there but I like the ones by Uncle Josh and the Gambler Cane Toads.

I never tried it, but you might want to check it out.  It's not out yet, but one day the guy will have an online shop for it.  It's a pretty interesting frog lure.  He just says its soft, but tough enough to withstand creatures with teeth like pike.  The hook is put in front of the frog's lips like a Banjo Minnow, probably because the body is harder than most hollow frogs.

I catch alot on spro bronze eyes i just got the new scum frog big foot hopefully it works well ill let you know in march or maybe even april  :'(


fishing user avatarThe Next KVD reply : 

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


fishing user avatarBig-O reply : 

Feelin Froggy, spring is just around the corner. Gonna ck out the new frogs this year cause I've seen some new ones at BPS ans CABBY'S. Rage Tail video makes me shake and get short of breath.


fishing user avatarBig-O reply : 

I like the Rage Tail Toad. It has terrific splash and action. If it lands on its back in water, it also rights itself as soon as you start your retrieve. Slow retrieve has a plop-plop-plop sound and quicker really makes some racket. I'll find alot water to chunk these in this year.

Hey your only here to learn as am I. I was just trying to explain the difference in the kinds of "frogs"

 What you should do is take one of each type using the preferences here,hollow body and buzzing,and get one of each.

  In other words:A lot of people like the ribbit frog which is a buzzbait type toad and a lot of people like the Spro bronzeye which is soft hollow type.Two totally different lures and actions.

BTW I live in Florida and anytime is frog time LOL ;)


fishing user avatarguest reply : 

Wow I'm three for three on polls this week.

I haven't been able to vote in any of them.

This poll compares "apples and oranges"

a horny toad is a COMPLETELY different class of bait than a spro bronzeye frog

hollow body frogs float

classic toad baits like the horny toad will sink.

They are different baits fished in different ways.

That being said.

Avid likes zoom horny toads, and spro bronzeye frogs.


fishing user avatarOther. reply : 

Meh choosing something on that list I would go with a Zoom Horny toad.


fishing user avatarMALTESE FALCON reply : 

I have two Bronzeye Frogs, and I don't have any problems with either.

As far as the solid frogs, I like the Zoom Horny Toads best. I'm looking forward to trying the Rage Toads this season.

fishing user avatarww2farmer reply : 

I like the Snag Proof "Bobby's perfect frog" and Zoom's Horny Toad


fishing user avatarAvalonjohn44 reply : 

You left the two best frogs off the list!

#1 Gamber Cane Toad

#2 Sizmic Toad

#3 Horny Toad

Best of everything else is the Scum Frog.  


fishing user avatarShadcranker reply : 

Buzz type frog- Stanley Ribbit and Bull Ribbit

Hollow body frog- I like the original Scum Frog best. I change the hooks, and add silicone skirt material.


fishing user avatarwarmer reply : 

scum frog big foot...

i weight it with some twiston line sinkers on the hook to give it a little extra casting distance...

great combo of hollow body and buzz frog.


fishing user avatarmike bat reply : 

for the hollow frog i pick spro and spro olny

for a buzzin frog i pick gambler cane toads ,, ribit frogs ,,, and zoom horney toads ... in that order ... ;)


fishing user avatarBig-O reply : 

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.


fishing user avatarfourbizz reply : 

Bobby's Perfect Frog.

Never really cared for the toads.


fishing user avataresox21 reply : 

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.


fishing user avatarBig Bait Fishing reply : 

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 !!!!

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").

fishing user avatarscbassin reply : 

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 :;)


fishing user avatarCHEVYRIDAZ reply : 

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.

fishing user avatarlooking4structure reply : 

For me its the Strike King Rage Toad.


fishing user avatardauberangler reply : 

River2Sea


fishing user avatarwestpalmfrogpunk reply : 

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.


fishing user avatargoober0311 reply : 

+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.


fishing user avatar7mm-08 reply : 

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.


fishing user avatartennwalkinghorse reply : 

Zoommmmm Toads love them ;)


fishing user avatarMrs. Matstone reply : 

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


fishing user avatariceintheveins reply : 

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.

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.


fishing user avatarcentral.PA.bass reply : 

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


fishing user avatarDavid P reply : 

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!

103_1318.jpg

103_1316.jpg

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


fishing user avatarbt fisherman reply : 

i like sizmic toads jr green pumkin


fishing user avatarPrimus reply : 

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.


fishing user avatarzero reply : 

i love the frog that my friend  has it its japanese soft frog/chugger combo works good


fishing user avatarumahunter reply : 

i love the River2Sea i tried a spro to see what all the hubbub was about nice frog but the body tore to easy dam near tore in half after a couple fish the r2s has way out lasted plus the r2s works awesome as a Popper aswell with the keel design throws lotsa water
