Best Frog Rod

Michael Rekas reported catching Largemouth Bass using the Frogs/Toads technique and St. Croix Mojo Bass Casting Rods - EOL on Lake of the Isles. Additional comments from this report: "Got on a bit of an unexpected frog bite this weekend. The pad fields that were too thick to fish a frog through this summer are now very sparse. These pads were perfect for a popping frog. The fish were concentrated on the pads and if you can find pads with laydowns nearby that was even better. Besides location, fish the frog just like you would during the summer. For more info on how I do that check out my other Lake of the Isles fishing report on summer frogging. Take advantage of this bite while you can it will be gone quick!"

JLieu reported catching Largemouth Bass using the Frogs/Toads technique and St. Croix Mojo Bass Casting Rods - EOL on Cedar Lake (76). Additional comments from this report: "When lakes give you lily pads, what do you do? You go frogging, of course! Following up on my previous visit, I came back with some fun frog gear to give it a go today. It paid off with exciting Michael Bay-esque explosions and blowups! Lost a few due to being impatient on the hook set, but it was still an outstanding day. Tons of nooks and crannies filled with lily pads and surface weeds here. In fact, I'd probably recommend a nice pitching/flipping rig as well for even more options. Enjoy the summer topwater! "

Brandon Garrett reported catching Largemouth Bass using the Frogs/Toads technique and St. Croix Mojo Bass Casting Rods - EOL on Fish Lake (46). Additional comments from this report: "Fish lake can be super fun, and Tuesday evening July 5th, it was just that. So many frog bites so little time! It was mostly calm and lightly raining. Storms and lightning were around but miles away. Some bites came near openings in the lily pads or near wood, but the key to the better size and numbers of bass was to keep the frog quickly walking over the submerged vegetation that was just touching the surface of the water. This was deeper than the pads, more like 4' of water. Only pausing the frog for a half second every half dozen twitches was enough to give them time to crush it. I usually fish the frog with much longer pauses and work more slowly, but the bass apparently weren't on board with that program. They wanted it moving! "

M T reported catching Largemouth Bass using the Frogs/Toads technique and St. Croix Victory Casting Rods on Long Lake (MN). Additional comments from this report: "Report is for Friday, 07/28/2023. Temp was warm in the low 80's, with a good storm coming through about 5pm. Temps dropped down to mid 70's after storm. Had some action on jigs near docks, but after the storm they really started chewing a frog and absolutely crushed it! Key seemed to be near pad edges and isolated pads. They were sharking it and absolutely coming out of of the water. Only fished a couple of hours after getting dinner during the storm at Birch's. Great Dinner spot on the lake."

SnowtaBass reported catching Largemouth Bass using the Frogs/Toads technique and Daiwa Tatula Series Casting Rods on Balsam Lake. Additional comments from this report: "The frog bite was very good on Balsam. Locate lilipads or matted vegetation on top of the water. Find these areas and fan cast them and you will find some decent fish. If you can locate wood or stumps mixed within the pads or weeds make sure to work that area well. The fish seemed to be located near the structure in the pads/weeds. Nothing beats a good frog bite!"

Bass Pundit reported catching Largemouth Bass using the Frogs/Toads technique and Daiwa Tatula Series Casting Rods on Sullivan Lake. Additional comments from this report: "I got all of my bites in the final 45-minutes of daylight. I went 5/5 on landing these frog bites. Pad clumps in rice or reeds was the deal. It is a great feeling when you hit your cast in the junk and you think to yourself; if one’s there I’m getting blown up and then it happens. That happened on the first bass of the night."

Punk Rock Mike reported catching Largemouth Bass using the Frogs/Toads technique and Daiwa Tatula Series Casting Rods on Lake Le Homme Dieu. Additional comments from this report: "Frogging and flipping shallow grass and pads was the deal for us over the weekend. Seemed like isolated patches of pads mixed in with grass near deep water got the best bites. Most of our fish came in less than 2 ft of water.
