Wow! It's a good thing frogs aren't 6 feet tall we'd all be in trouble.
riverbasser reply :
That's hilarious, see something new on here everyday
MassYak85 reply :
PB bullfrog?
It always amazes me how aggressive those things are, I've caught a few that I tossed some t-rigged worms to just for laughs. You don't even have to hook them, they latch on hard.
everythingthatswims reply :
This happens more often than you would expect
MassYak85 reply :
I wonder if anyone here has ever hooked a bullfrog on a hollow belly frog, and then had a bass attack the frog while reeling them in, and landed the bass. That would be something.
OCdockskipper reply :
Never caught a bullfrog on a hollow belly frog, but did catch one once on a Hula Popper, in frog pattern of course.
Bluebasser86 reply :
If you have much experience with bullfrogs it's not unbelievable at all. They're a nuisance at one of the ponds I fish. I can't hardly finish, or sometimes even start, a retrieve with a frog before I have one in hot pursuit. They're super aggressive and dumb as a post. I've had them eat a bait, unhook them and toss them back, just to have them eat the bait again next time it came by. It's really bad when I don't see them and just see or hear the splash back in the weeds when I'm fishing a frog. I've had a couple about get sent into orbit on the hookset. I had one jump on the back of a Spro Rat fishing it along a grassy shoreline once, thankfully he didn't get the hooks.

This. The ponds I fish usually have a lot of bullfrogs in the summer and they can be amusing and a nuisance as well. I've caught a number of them chasing a lure and they always seem to go for the topwater frogs if they get close.
Jtrout reply :
At some of the ponds i fish the bullfrogs are on the frog every cast sometimes 2 or 3 will be going after it
RB 77 reply :
Frog on frog violence! I have had this same catch multiple times as well. Like Bluebasser86 said, in the right situation it can be a "wide open" frog ON the frog bite!

They stuff the worm in their mouths with both hands . I see them and purposely throw the worm several feet away . Then crawl it slowly along the bank . They go for it every time. I have yet to see a bullfrog let a plastic worm , lizard ...go by .
Bankbeater reply :
There is a pond a few miles from me that I fish sometimes. If I use a black Spro I will have 3 or 4 bullfrogs after it.
Fisher-O-men reply :
From what I have observed it is not about food but territory.

Agreed. Bullfrogs are very territorial.
Bass Justice reply :
Looking at the size of the HBF vs the size of the actual frog i'd say Strike King, Spro, Scum, and Livetarget need to come out with a DOUBLE XL version of a hollow body. Imagine the bass that would eat that size bullfrog... Easy 10lber!
Darren. reply :
Welcome aboard, Tom!
And yeah, that's unreal! Love it!
Fish the Mitt reply :
Well...being honest, I'd cast it back out like that. Nature's free fishing lure. 
In all honesty, that things a toad (pun intended).
Bluebasser86 reply :
I've never seen a bass eat a bullfrog, and there's lots of bullfrogs around here. I've used them for bait multiple times, catfish and turtles are the only thing that ever eat them in my experience. I've also noticed that if there's lots of bullfrogs on the weeds I'm fishing, there's almost never any bass, not that are eating anyways.

thats interesting. I always thought that if i was fishing frogs in an area where bullfrogs were croaking, that would be a good thing. Almost like a dinner bell to the bast (and probably big ones at that).
gardnerjigman reply :
Just like @everythingthatswims and @Bluebasser86 said, happens all the time. Heck, when I was a kid we use to use to go frogging with crappie jigs and catch them rod and reel. Super easy and fun. Lol.

Lol exactly what I thought.
By the way, one good summer pattern around here is fishing frog baits where you hear croaking frogs.I really don't think its the basses favorite meal but the ones I catch this way are all fat , healthy fish.
hawgenvy reply :
So you finally caught something you can eat.
FirstnameLastname reply :
Bull frogs kill hula poppers if you throw them right in front of em. I think it has to do with territory

Simple solution... fried frog legs.
