Well, I've not been doing well this summer as this TX heat is brutal on the fish and me. So for the most part I chose to let them boil in ponds alone. But on the last two outings, I have caught some decent sized fish. The pics below was on a spro popper frog. First bass I've caught on a frog, so it was more luck than skill.

Here I am throwing a cavitron buzzbait at night, and I think I have the bass of a lifetime, until.............I see this

and this is what it did to my cavitron

Nice bass and cat, lol. I like the SPro frogs. I use them quite a bit as well. I've caught a cat on a spinnerbait before, but never a buzzbait! That's just crazy!

Yeah Larry that's the way to get the Big Bass throw them a Spro Frog. Last time I was down in Florida, was using a Spro popper frog and was just driving them NuTZ. What could be better than a weedless popper in the weeds, near the weeds and just out in open water. Now in NJ I've caught me a few Bass on a Spro, but what I've caught the most on the Spro Frog are Bull Frogs, they love the Spro just as much if not more.

Great post Larry!!

Yeah channel cat will hit anything, and I like those buzzies but thats there one flaw, the wire is too thin!!

Tequila, the frog I am having a crazy time getting a good cadence down to get them to bite. I've had 3 blow ups on them, but only hooked one fish. I'll keep at it and get it down pat on what it takes to get them to bite consistently. I do love the excitement of watching them blow up, now just gotta finish the rush with more hook ups


CF, the cavitrons are becoming my favorite buzzbait also. And like you said the wire is too thin, especially after you hook into a decent size fish. But that Channel destroyed my BRAND NEW buzzy. Now I have to keep fiddelin with it to get it to track properly, its running off to one side like a broken wing. I guess I will have to start throwing my bluegill colored buzzy now

Larry, it takes time but you will always get more blow ups than hits, and it isn't really you or the Frog it's more the fish and the angle they see the lure at. They have reverse refaction to deal with, sort of like when you're at the surface looking in, reaching for something in the water it's never right where you reach for it. Also while many ppl believe that Bass hit a topwater lure while it's standing still, this has rarely been the case. When I fish the in Florida, where I've had 7+ pounders drill the Frog.

Once in awhile I get a hit upon the frog hitting the water but more often than not it's when I twitch it or pop the popping frog and the hit is from behind the frog. (I believe that most Bass grab a frog by the hind legs and then turn the frog once in the mouth to swallow it). So never set the hook as soon as you see the hit, because in most cases you'll just rip the frog away from the Bass. Also away make hooksets straight up not to the side. I find for me the best hookset to get is in the roof of the mouth 3 to 4 inches in.

Few lures are made too last, that would defeat there main purpose - making the manufactor rich.

Catfishnation had another tournament on the susquehanna out of the ramp thats 5 minutes from my house. i decided not to fish for various reasons. Wish i would of. went to the weigh in this morning. Winning weight was only 15lbs!!! We had 20 something the other day GRR and we were only out for a few hours! Big fish was only 7.05 lbs too.

You never know whats gonna happen on the water, everyone gets lucky now and then but jeez.
