Best and Worst Frog Day!

06-22-05, 01:11 AM

Today I was throwin the frog for about 3 hours, at a local lake. I started off w/ a Black Sumo and nailed a squeeker fish first cast! I was thinkin it was gonna be a great day! I threw the sumo for about 30 minutes longer, nothin. Went to a Sumo walker Yellow Head and had a 3+ fish blow up and miss it TWICE I keept throwing the walker for about another hour and had 2 more small fish blow up on it and MISS IT! I switched to a perfect frog in Yellow Head got another squeeker fish first cast and missed another next cast. Fished that for another half hour nothin. And went back to the Yellow Head Walker and Had a 10+ fish bump it out of the water (told myself it was a carp) keept walking it and the same fish exploded on it and knocked it 3ft out of teh water. I was so dissapointed to see that monster and have it MISS the walker TWICE I have never cought a huge fish on a frog and almost had one today. Man I wish bass had better aim. Out of the day I had 3 potential catchable fish and cought 2 of them they were all small. Overall I was just happy to see that big fish come after the frog, just wished I coulda cought it

My sumo has an owner hook (stock) and does great, I have a tournament on Wed. nights that i won last week on the frog (got it that day) so far out of 2 trips and 10 bites i have lost 2 fish and both of them were almost in before they came off. Every fish that i landed had the entire frog in his mouth and both hooks firmly in the roof of his mouth. I am quite impressed with the sumo, I too have the black with red eyes color. I will be getting a white one next. I was really worried about the hookup ratio, but have nothing but praise for the sumo after using it. I would definately recommend it.
