Uhh well so far the Bass at the spot I fish don't like the frog I assume I'm fishing it wrong? I've been doing the twitch twitch pause and nothing.. The spot I fish has a lot of Lilly pad's I've managed to get the frog snagged many time's I'm surprised I haven't lost it yet, and when I cast my line seems to always grab something like tall grass or a dead tree seems to be the most common way I end up snagged. I can't fish worm's I don't think because of the lilly pads and whatever else the worm might get snagged on and with my 20lb braided line I seem to not be able to cast more then I'd say 10-15 feet from the bank I'm using a Abu Garcia Ultra max bait caster I even put a 1/16 oz bullet weight didn't seem to help much getting it casted out more. However my Booyah 3000 spinning reel with a frog goes at least 25-30 feet. However I haven't tried putting a worm on that spinning reel and I haven't tried putting a frog on the bait caster either so maybe that might explain ..
I'm age 60+ and started bass fishing only in recent years. I credit Glen and his videos with most of the useful fishing knowledge I've learned. The toad fishing tip of using a weighted hook that he and his wife discuss in another video resulted last week in the largest bass I've caught.
I love your videos. They are super informative and you say what you believe is right. I totally agree, why have a 8.1 gear ratio with only 13 pounds of drag. Any fish over 5 pounds can easily wrap you up in 20 pounds of lily pads.
Thanks for the tips I like the BB's to add and throwing it over a lim and dipping it in the watering let the fish hit it like that I can see that being fun.
Good video, I know a lot of guys (self included have a low hook-up ratio on frogs . I'll be trying some of the things you mentioned . 13 minutes is a little long for my viewing attention but well produced.
Good video, Glenn! Like many other anglers, my biggest fault is not letting the bait soak. However, when I get a blow-up, I will only wait long enough until I no longer see the frog before I set the hook. That way, I am reasonably sure that he has it. I prefer a higher speed reel (7.3:1), not to get the lure back to the boat, but to rapidly take up the slack before the hook set. I also use 65 lb braid, and when it starts looking washed out and faded like a big white rope in the water, I will color the first five feet or so with a black Sharpie
I didn't think that there was a whole lot of things to do to change up frog fishing. I always expect to hear the same things about a technique from one video to the next but this channel never fails to prove me wrong. You guys always share some really unique pointers that I don't hear anywhere else.
The strength of drag is something I hadn't considered. Now I have to find out how strong the drag is on my reels is . The BB trick is also interesting. Thanks! Question: do the BBs make the frog rattle?
Excellent video! Thanks for the rundown of the frog!
Is that potholes?

Nicely done Glen! These instructional videos may not get a ton of initial views but they will get loads of views over time! Keep them coming!
It's just so hard once they blow up on it to keep from jerking it away from them.
Can u use pliers to get a frog out of a bass fish mouth
When the fish hits the frog i recite my address in my head before setting the hook works every time
Thanks for info. Do you walk dog much?

Great video it was very informative, look forward to more videos. Thanks
thanks for the video ! got a lot of good info from it.
Thanks for the great frog video. Lots of of helpful tips. Going to try the bbs next time out.

Never thought to slow down that much while frog fishing, will have to try it next time out. Thanks for the advice!
I have never frog fished, but it looks pretty simple. I will try it for sure and then comment on it in next video. Thanks for this video ??
Great tips – especially the BB's! Sometimes if I can't create enough disturbance, I switch to a popping frog.
As always, love your content!
dude those tips are sick
these will definetly get more fish now thnx
