Hey everyone,

What is everyone using for frog fishing in heavy grassy cover?  Myself,  I like to use a 7ft Med/Heavy rod with 40lb braid on a 7.2.1:1 baitcaster reel.  You will need a big setup and a combination that is strong enough to reel the big boys out of that heavy cover.  Going too small in setup will cause you to lose more fish.

One tip for Frog Fishing is to wait for the tug on the rod before setting the hook.  If you pull too early when you hear the splash you will pull the frog out of their mouth.  If you think of how they eat, they first trap the frog in their mouth and then they will chomp down and try and swallow.  Pausing a little will allow time for the frog to be in the perfect place to set the hook.

 

Tight lines everyone.
