Don't pack away your frogs when summer ends! Fall is prime time for frog fishing, with bass feeding aggressively in thinning vegetation and shallow waters. As mats break apart and baitfish move in, hollow body frogs, popping frogs, toads, and kicking frogs become deadly tools for triggering explosive topwater strikes. Match your frog style to the conditions, downsize for finicky fish, and use heavy braid with a stout rod to haul bass from cover. Extend your frog season and score big blowups this fall!
