scum frogs

[LANGER]

in the past i have noticed a lot of post about scum frogs, mainly people wanting to know if they work. well i have used them for several years with moderate success, but the last week has moved them back up my list. i have a pond to fish that is completly packed with grass and weeds right up to the surface and i had struggled fishing it, that is up until i started using kermit. in three evenings of fishing i have caught three bass around 3lbs, one that weight 6.3lbs. my dad caught a 4 plus and my buddy just lastnight caught a 5lber. just want to tell people that they don't work...don't buy them, maybe they will get cheaper and easier to find for me...lol

ya i would bet they work pretty well. i dont really have weeds in my ponds its more topwater moss

I also like them, a couple days ago I got a 5 + on one.

Ive heard about them but where can I pick one up at and around how much do they cost!!! Please dont say BPS

[Bassin_Dude]

you may be able to find them at Bitters why not BPS? its only like a 20-30 minute drive from here.

[coolman]

Its like an hour from here and my dad wont take me that far for one lure :'(

[Bassin_Dude]

you live like 10 minutes away from me.....and on a bad day it takes 40 minutes to get there.....i have gotten there in 20 minutes......

[coolman]

hey i took us like an hour the one time we went there and even Hula says it takes an hour :

[Bassin_Dude]

you guys most drive extremely slow....

[coolman]

not my dad ;D Too many stories about this kinda stuff!! Im trying to get my dad into bass fishing so we can go there like everyday but he doesnt believe in artifical so im really trying hard to catch a monster to prove him wrong! But even then i dunno cuz he doesnt have that much time!

[Bassin_Dude]

well i can always pick you one up next time i go...but right now i have nooo money so im not goin anytime soon :P

[coolman]

Well does Wally World have it??

[Bassin_Dude]

they MIGHT, our wally world really isnt all so good when it comes to supplies and lures......i would go to bitters before you go to wally world....i'll PM you directions to bitters.

Dont worry about that now I picked one up today at sports Authority ;D Quick Question How should i fish this type of lure??

[Bassin_Dude]

scum frogs are topwater frogs i believe.....throw it ontop of grass and hydrilla mats, have a stop and go retrieve ontop of the mat....then when the bass hits the bait....wait to feel the fish before you set the hook....

[coolman]

What do you mean by feel the fish? The package says to wait 2 seconds before setting the hook? And at what speed would i fish it in open water, what time of day, cloud cover, or is it just an all around type of lure? Oh and Sports Authority has 20% off all Zoom products!!!!

[Bassin_Dude]

just wait a few seconds to set the hook...if not you will pull the lure from the fishes mouth....i like to fish it in the mourning...the evening...and on the hottest day...because fish will stack up under the hydrilla or topwater moss for shade.....i dont fish it open water...i fish a jitterbug or popr in open water...

[coolman]

whats a popr heard of them never seen one and sounds like i really need one (darn bait monkeys calling again :bad bait monkey bad, go to ur room: ) sorry about that had to take care of him but if you could answer those questions!! Great Thanx given to you

[LANGER]

well christopher bassfisher answered pretty much all of your questions before i could check my post again, but i will tell you that the ones i bought were like $4.00 and i think that on sunny days dark colored frogs work best, and on cloudy days bright colored works best...for me that is. i think that you should check wal-mart because our store has a piss poor selection and even they have some, but not much to choose from. it would be worth your money to give them a shot.
