Default Bait Review: Snag Proof Wiggle Wog

Don't know if any has tried one of these, but I tossed one around the pond
yesterday and it's a great bait. It is as weedless as most frog type baits and
comes through grass, pads, etc. with ease. It has a great wiggling tail. The
cool thing is that on a steady retrieve it will dive and become a weedless
shallow crankbait. I had some vicious hits on it and was 2 for 4, as this bait
is like many frog type baits, you miss some fish.

Default Bait Review: Snag Proof Wiggle Wog

Hint on the wiggle wog bend the hooks up just a hair for better hook up's.
Works for me still just as weedless I use them here in Texas run them over
the thick grass and mead along the bank even the thick stuff you can't see
through the bass go crazy coming up through it to get this lure.It's great
they sometimes follow it out in open water but most of my strikes have been
in the thick stuff they are a little high in price but they work also
another problem I have found is the weight inside coming loose from the hook
if you take the hook out and crimp the weight tighter it will stay on longer
if it starts sitting on its side in the water you know the weight has came
off.
good luck tommy

Try the zoom horny toad, use a matzuo sickle hook 5/0, you can run the hook
so it's exposed on the top of the frog making it almost completely weedless
to boot and it sputters those legs and creates a mini wake with the head
like it's spitting if rigged properly.

Default Bait Review: Snag Proof Wiggle Wog

Used the horny toad also awsome results and it is cheaper to use i used a
straight owner #4 worm hook on mime after about 5 fish the nose of the frog
would break off I will try the hooks your talking about the next time on the
horny toad and see what happens I'am waiting om a order of 50 of the toads I
found on ebay in the pictures they look just like the horny toads just a lot
cheaper will let you know how they work out at 5.99 for 50 I don't care if
the nose tears up ot I lose a few.

I'm planning on trying the ZOOM Horny Toad. It's on the to do list. Hopefully
it will be another good addition to the frog bait box.

I just picked up some more new colors that were not in stock last
time,,,,black yellow and blue pearl and a couple others.. I like them and
will be bringing a few dozen to the classic, I have a spot I have to throw
them on out on boom. I'm hoping Fritz will take me back there again.
