I was digging through some of my stuff when I ran across another frog bait.
A Seizmo. I don't remember buy them, there they were in withthe rest of the
bedraggled frogs in my frog box.

Not wanting to wait and see I rigged on on a Daiichi 5/0 EWG hook. I took
it out to the pool and pitched it a couple times. It was much lighter than
I expected. I had to readjust the reel substantially from throwing senkos
on it. Thats a big chunk of plastic to be so light. I tossed it out on the
pool and low and behold it floats. With those club foot (sassy shad style)
trailign legs it really has some action on a straight retrieve as well.

I'm not convinced that's the best hook for the bait, but I can't imagfine
stuffing a regular double frog hook up its ... um... well you get the idea.

Anyway, if I can figure out what hook and rod to use for it for the best
results I think it will make a nice in between bait. Not quite a popper,
and not quite a buzzbait, and still able to be fished in the heavy grass
when a frog bite is on. Maybe even drag a treble hook off the bottom of the
wide gap in open water. Hmmmm....

With just the wide gaphook I am think medium heavy rod with braid for a hard
hook set. 1 2 3, jerk the tree trunk out. If I try the treble trailer in
open water I imagine I might be able to get by with the same rod, but I'll
have to back the drag way off. I'm thinking it might behoove me to be ready
to fish it on a medium action rod. Hmmmmm....

Any ideas? Comments?
