Tie two pieces of 50-60 lb mono on the top of the shank and well into the bend so they are touching each other in the top of the shank at angles, not stacked. Tie the fly. Then bring them up on each side of the hook through the lower lip of the frog and tie them off on right behind the eye. You could also do a double guard off the hook eye, but I prefer the loops so it doesn’t affect the pop as much in theory
It depends. I’ve used 12/0 and cut the foam. I guess you could lay down more wraps for a base before tightening the foam, but then why not use 8/0 or even 6/0. The foam will float even with lots of 8/0 wraps 😂😂😂
This is the most awesome frog fly patern in youtube
Tony’s pattern has caught me more largemouth bass than anything else. Also caught a few trout last summer with it
Holy crap Sesame Street‘s gonna sue you! That’s the best Kermit the Frog I’ve ever seen! Great channel, thanks diesel!
Great videos my man. Tight lines!
Thank you
This is one cool Frog Pattern!
Yeah it is and it works
That was a very nice job. Thank you.
Thanks for sharing !
My pleasure!
Awesome and thank you sir for this lesson
Love it!!
This would be a good pattern for our Northern Snakehead here in Virginia
Would a black Sharpie fix the black on the foam? How are you liking the NorVise? Thanks for the video.
Cheers!
Shawn yes it would totally work. Also if it didn’t have spots you could add them. The vise is great.
Do you notice any difference between a single and double weed guard in terms of getting hung up on vegetation?
Being honest I haven’t since I don’t fish them where weed guards are not needed. So I can’t give great feedback on this.
@@Svenddiesel How would you tie in a double weed guard?

Where did you get them legs from. They don’t sell them here in Australia
They are just silicone tab legs. If there are any bass jig making guys down there they should have them
where is the website please where I can order the frog foam cutters in the video?
www.jsflyfishing.com/river-road-stp-frog-foam-body-cutter
Where can I get those foam cutter from.
Any fly shop that has access to hareline. From river road creations. I’m sure Tony would ship to you direct as well
8/0 is a heavy thread? yeah ok. not something i would use for tying on foam...
