Default Want to try frogging but have a problem with my set up.

So, one of my favorite fishing spots these days is a shallowish inlet in a big, big reservoir. This inlet has a ton of weeds toward the middle, and they're very thick. I've had some success with t-rigged worms and stuff, but I think a spro frog would SLAY those fish. It's the perfect spot for topwater.

The only problem is, I only have one rod. It says on the rod that it's meant for 6-12 lb. test. I currently have 10 lb. mono on it, which is working out fine as a general, all around line. For frogging though, I need much heavier line. I think 20lb braid is the standard?

So what do I do. I can't afford another rod, and I don't think the one i have would like having line that heavy on it. I also don't want to be using 20lb braid all the time. I looked into extra spools and haven't found anything. Is there another topwater bait I might be better off with?

Thanks guys.
