Sometimes its just about having fun. Here is my good friend Sieg Taylor putting the hammer down on some quality Clearlake bass. The fish were feeding on small minnows around the edges of offshore grass lines and the frog bite was on fire. Often times the key to catching frog fish in the open is to “walk the frog” but for whatever reason these fish wanted it popped along quickly making as much commotion as possible. The bites were vicious and the fish kept getting bigger.
Sieg targeted them with a custom rod, 65 lb braided line, and the Snag Proof Bobby’s Perfect Frog in “Wild Bullfrog”

Ellery, that is a difficult question to answer as there are so many variables. Generally, the slower/bigger baits will draw larger bites and work under a variety of different conditions. The faster baits will work in less conditions but tend to draw the most violent reactions. Its going to come down to time on the water to see which baits work best in your local lakes.

saweet….one thing about top water fishing that I still am unclear about…how do I choose what bait? frog, lunker punker, wake bait, spook, trick worm, buzz bait….?
