Brian you are the man I just recently started using a frog I have a few different kinds I haven't been doing a good job walking it I could walk it but not good or consistent but after I watched this video I ran down to the lake down the street and was walking the shisnic out of a popping frog I didn't catch anything but I was doing a lot better now if I can keep practicing skipping I'll be good to go Good advice my friend
When watch your videos I feel like you are talking directly to me and you are a great teacher when comes to talking about fishing and different kind of lures
If you're getting blowups on a frog, theres nothing to else to get the hang of. You're already putting the frog where it needs to be and getting the fish to go after it. If youre setting the hook to early, after you make your cast, turn your head away from your bait as you work it. When you hear that splash, look for your frog. If you dont see, SET THAT HOOK!!!
Z Man frogs don't get the love they should on the TH-cam fishing community. And I've tried a lot of different frogs. I destroyed them this season on mats and cheese. I trim the legs, tweek out the hooks, shove some weights and maybe a jig rattle up the butt on real heavy cover to depress the mats down more.. Usually toss it on a 7'-6"MH fast . 7.3.1 with 50lb braid. Us a straight heavy rod if it's super thick but it's harder for me to walk it. Had a 20lb snapping turtle grab one. Got I'm to the bank. Got the frog out of his mouth without losing a finger and kept fishing and catching with it the rest of the season. They hold real well!
I love it…..”the Stevie wonder’s”. Gotta love how you put things into perspective and truth for walking a frog. Real!! You and maybe three other pros can ever say that in todays cancel culture. Any other pros would be vilified and canceled. Personally for me; seems too be a great name for a special frog design. The Stevie, the wonder,‘the Stevie wonder walking frogg. Just sayin
What you're talking about at @11:30 - @11:45 or so is truth. I tossed a mini frog on a river cove pad line last week and watched a hog torpedo over to it, back out of the water, fast as greased lightning from 4 feet away. The depth was no more that 1' there and while I missed the hook set (counting to 3 feels like years), it proves that shallow water isn't just for baitfish!
Great tips bud. Makes it nicer when somebody explains like you do, what your doing then why your doing it. Love watching your channel and grabbin some good tips.
Thanks Brian, I just started with a frog and was missing the bites so I was looking for some instructions. This is the best video of all of them. You clearly defined what I am doing wrong with the scooting and how to correct it. That kind of instruction is invaluable. I cant wait to get out and try again now. I am learning a lot from you as a beginning bass fisherman. Thanks for everything you are posting.
What brand of frog are you using? Cheaper frogs can start filling up with water as soon as it hits the surface. The best one I've found for NOT taking on water is the scum frog. It literally has a big hole in the bottom and you would think that it would sink immediately but that hole doesn't allow the water to get trapped inside. Never have to squeeze out the water either. It just runs out as soon as it leaves the water. Booyah pad crashers are a good cheaper frog. I haven't tried z-mans frog yet but it's on my list to try. Keep at it. It took me a while but when I finally got that first one, I knew there was nothing else that compares to a frog bite.👊
@@N2theBlue1 you must have gotten a bad pad crasher. They do take on water but I can usually go 4 to 5 casts before it's a problem. Never had one sink completely. Maybe try a scum frog.
Stevie wonder 😂😂😂😂. That's actually a very helpful visual. Crazy superstition!!! Writings on the walllllll. Lol another great video B. Appreciate ya sir🤟
Bass man over there catching em all like Pokémon over there recently while I was bass fishing i caught a mega trout on some new bait i tried from Berkley here where I live there just smallmouth, stripers and perch so it helps watching this!!!
Yo, will you do more videos like this? It's nice for me as I'm a beginner looking to get into kayak fishing. Understanding your lures is too pivotal. It's like not understanding the machines at the gym that you're using or the exercises that you were doing. You don't understand why you're doing them. Concept to me.
Stevie Wonders album songs in the key of life is one of the best albums ever wrote. Also now Everytime I fish a frog now; all I will be thinking while walking it is Stevie Wonder lol
B.L another great video but for me personally you just was reeling it in too fast more me. I always enjoy the jewels you give us.. blessings to you & the family and one I hope I can get a chance to personally fish with you if & when you're in the twin cities or if I become a tournament fisherman.
Hey thanks for this video. I have this exact lure, the popping frog. I’ve been using frogs of various styles ever since I was a kid. I love top water fishing the most and I’ve probably caught more fish off of a hula popper or a jitterbug than any other. And you’re right - it’s super fun when they come up and blast it! Devils horse is another fave.
I wish they would have shown more of the rod action so I could see what you're doing with the rod to create the Stevie Wonder action.

Good advice my friend
But all of this is the easy part. Its HOOKING the frog that I just don't get. I can get fish to attack and hit a frog all day long.
💯!!! Missed sooo many big fish due to lack of hookup. Bending the hooks does work but sometimes it's still tough.
Hahaha "no offense to Stevie if you're watching." I don't think he's watching...
Beat me to it lol
you did not just say, "no offense to Stevie if you WATCHING"😂. Bo you're crazy, good video
fun fact he isnt 100% blind lol but still yes that was hilarious hahaha
When watch your videos I feel like you are talking directly to me and you are a great teacher when comes to talking about fishing and different kind of lures
Man you’ve helped me so much breaking down baits and ways to fish them, thank you for the content and keep up the great vids
"No offense to Stevie if you're watching" 💀😭 Anyways, thanks for the tip on walking the frog!
One day I’ll get the hang of it. Have had over 10 blowups on a frog and haven’t been able to set the hook yet, 🤦🏼♂️

Braid line and a heavy rod and patience.
Using anthing other than brain is uncivilized!
@@teraleverson3045 yeah, I’ve let it go under water, waited felt like I set the hook hard and next thing I know her comes the frog, I’m like WTH
@@d3adp94 100% braid, not a heavy rod, but a fast action rod (defender, from favorite)
Lol I don't think Stevie Wonder is watching this but he may be listening 😅
Well played

I luv you B Lat, but, the line about Stevie Wonder watching right now........
"nuff said.
Great tips bud. Makes it nicer when somebody explains like you do, what your doing then why your doing it.
Love watching your channel and grabbin some good tips.
New bass fisherman here. Would have liked to see the rod action. It was blocked the entire time.
Stevie,if you're watching this one".... Haha. I love him too.
I want to be expert like you bro bc there's no way I can use 30lb braid for a frog. It think 50 minimum but thats me
Love your videos man. Wish you lived in Texas would love to get on a boat with you and learn from someone like you
I don't think Stevie was watching but good content.

I'd love to see you talk about the Zman Pop frogz and pop shadz.
I agree!
Why inhibit its action, LOOP KNOT that frog!
Stevie Wonder action. Hilarious!
Stevie wonder watching ???? He is blind
I can't keep the dang things from sinking even squeezing the water out every cast

@@johnhancock517 the zman and the booyah. The booyah is better but still frustrating to the point I’ve given up on them

Get you a river2 sea bully wa frog they are way easier to walk and water does not get in. They come in two sizes and 49 colors Tackle warehouse.

couldn't c ur rod tip so I'm not sure what u meant by throwing some slack back in the line. I'm new.
All fishing is frog fishing I love throwing that shit all year round except winter
Yo “B” frogs aren’t on your site anymore. Also saw another video where you were talking about fishing line haven’t seen it on there either.
Hey thanks for this video. I have this exact lure, the popping frog. I’ve been using frogs of various styles ever since I was a kid.

"Hydrodynamic"
I think you’ve been following everything I’ve been currently trying to learn to use lately.
A few tips here are gold. Things that are normally left unsaid. Keep up the good work, Brian!
Very, very informative frog lesson! Thanks, B!
Nice
Love ANY topwater bite. Thank you
