Got out for a few hours today and caught this nice one on a white swim jig. It’s a good start for the June SUF tournament.

Are You Using This Knot When Frog Fishing?

On the live class Monday we talked about frog fishing quite a bit. One of the things that mentioned wast that all frogs aren't created equal. Some really are better than others for certain scenarios. I thought I'd give a gear list of my favorite frogs with links that you can view or buy them at.Jakal Iobee - Best for finesse open water frogging. https://www.tackledirect.com/jackall-topwater-iobee-frog-lures.htmlSpro Bronze eye - Best all around frog. If I had to live with one it would probably be this one.https://www.omniafishing.com/p/spro-bronzeye-shad-65?fishing_reports_sort=true&fishing_reports_waterbodyBobby's perfect frog - I have nothing to say but if bobby says it's good and he designed it must be good. I haven't used this one a bunch. https://www.omniafishing.com/p/snag-proof-bobbys-perfect-frog?fishing_reports_sort=true&fishing_reports_waterbodyTerminator Poppin frog - Good soft popping frog. Best in open water. Poppin is tougher to use around pads https://www.omniafishing.com/p/terminator-popping-frog?fishing_reports_sort=true&fishing_reports_waterbodyDeps buster K - DO NOT SLEEP ON THIS FROG! LOOKS CRAZY BUT WORKS. Hook ups and easier to walk with the hair tails. It has a very unique actionUse any of this braided line- I haven't really come across any braided line that I feel won't work for frogging just yet.https://www.omniafishing.com/c/lines/braid-superlineRods- Casting Open water frogging ( not heavy cover) 7-2" MH Fast- Casting Heavy cover - 7-3" or larger Heavy FastUse any of these rods that fit that description on taper and sizehttps://www.omniafishing.com/c/rods/casting-rodsVideos you can watch to help you learn how to catch bass on a frogSummertime frog fishing - (Open Water) https://youtu.be/jG3bWJlfTz0?si=OpviyDxvw--8XDHMFrog Fishing Heavy Cover -https://youtu.be/bMY8dqDAv34?si=NI0Js_NXXwQzxseiHow to fish a hollow belly froghttps://youtu.be/QErQVLB-Zjk?si=mTHBh4K8S0fD3TNaBobby Barrack techniqueshttps://sufschool.com/programs/bobbybarrackjun6https://sufschool.com/programs/bobby-barrack-frog-sc-2023

someone asked a really good question that I didn't have the answer for today. At least I didn't immediately have the answer. " How can you tell fish are in a summer pattern?" What are you guys thinking?

Here's what I look for..

Most of the time I notice most of the bass vacate bank structure and isolated cover.  (generally speaking) 

fish seem to be in groups near main lake intersections. ex. Main lake points, humps , grass lines brush etc.

Water temps over 80 ( I don't like this metric because there's so many metrics to consider)

The way the fish looks. This could be beat up tails. The fish can be a little skinnier, and sometimes if we're further into the season the fish can actually be fatter.

schooling activity on the main lake

The hard part about this is that often time depending on the species these "triggers" could be any time of the year. Namely spotted bass and smallmouth. THATS WHERE IT GETS HARD TO EXPLAIN. 

If you're fishing isolated cover in creeks and all of a sudden you notice it hard to get bit, most likely your fishery has transitioned to a "summer" stage.  Move to the main lake or river and look for schools of fish near any main lake intersection. A intersection would be somewhere a creek meets the main river. Anywhere a a hump or high spot, or ledge is near or on the main river. It may take longer to get bit but once you do there's usually more fish in those areas.

If you're having a shad spawn right now... try this!!! Line through for me eliminates losing bass once they're hooked. Caught two in 15 min.. #secretjuice
