Get BIGGER Bites with Tiny BASS FISHING FROGS (Seth Feider)
Hollow body frogs are one of the most consistent topwater baits during the bass post-spawn period, but choosing the right frog for the situation has a significant impact on success. Seth Feider teaches a lesson on choosing the right frog for the job, with an emphasis on smaller-sized frogs fished on lighter rods and braided line when faced with moderate- to sparse cover or clear water.
Seth reaches for a 2-1/2 inch frog the majority of the time for the simple reason that bass of all sizes eat it -- you get more bites overall without sacrificing the big eats. On top of that, a compact bait produces higher hooking percentages and deeper hooking so long as it’s equipped with a high-end hook. That said, Seth also explains when to step up to a 3-inch or larger frog.
TACKLE USED:
• Terminator Walking Frog Jr (2 1/2 inch): wired2.fish/3wAnVeG
• Daiwa Taula Elite Casting Rod, 7'1" Heavy: wired2.fish/3wkUSwG
• Daiwa Tatula SV TWS Casting Reel, 8.1:1: wired2.fish/3yGgo0u
• Sufix 832 Braided Line Lo-Vis Green, 30-pound: wired2.fish/3yHx1ZP
When it comes to color, Feider shares his 4 go-to colors depending on the forage and water clarity, with a bluegill pattern being his all-around favorite. In his opinion, hollow body frogs perform best when bass are feeding on bluegills, so he matches the food. Feider wraps it up with a discussion on why he favors shorter rods in the low 7-foot range paired with a fast reel and 30-pound braid over the more common meat sticks with 65-pound braid.

@@edscmidt5193yeah man. If you want more outdoors fishing lure action without bs advertising check out ndyakangler. He does a bunch of different top water fishing, and some jig/spoon/ice fishing as well. But it’s a laid back outdoors man feel where he will show a product, but there’s no bs for marketing.
Seth is one of my favorite fisherman to listen to. He’s always so calm and levelheaded as if he was never in front of the camera. I enjoy that, it just feels like he is talking to you giving you some tips and it’s not about a show. Very down to earth and a relaxed individual.
Seth: Sees a 6” space 40 feet away. Tosses a frog right in the middle every time. Me: Sees a 4 foot space 15 feet away. Frog ends up in a tree 5 feet above the water and 3 feet to the left of my target. After 15 minutes of fumbling around I cut the line and give up on a $6 lure. #realisticfishing

Seth is the freakin man! His vids are so good. Straight forward an solid info. Would love to fish with that dude for a day.
Seth is the best at fishing and teaching at the same time straight and simple details and explanations for everything love it
Seth is a good guy. Watched him tell another angler in a tournament to fish by him because there were a lot of fish there.
Perfect example of the right fishing reel too! Hook up, reel in. High speed reel like this does not give the fish a chance to swim away because he's being skimmed over the water. Perfect setup

This is a very accurate characterization of Feider! Our content team feels the same.
Excellent photography and spot on casting.
After I mastered the post blow up pause to feel the basd and set the hook frog fishing the 2nd most important thing I did that maximized my hookup ratio frog fishing was go to a smaller very soft frog. 98% of the lakes I bass fish 99% of the bass you will catch regardless of presentation is 2-4lbs with most in the 2-3.5lb class. Using a smaller fog immediately and significantly increased my hookup success
Its all in the little details thank you so much very helpful 👍

I have Suffix 832 Advanced Superline 30lb (300 yards) on my PENN Fierce III 5000 on my 7 foot (2 piece) Berkley Fusion Rod. Interesting how my buddy snapped a Tatula spinning rod when he snagged on a huge weed like a carpet… wouldn’t happen on a 7 foot Ugly Stik GX2 though.

We've had excellent performance from our entire Daiwa lineup. Still, all sensitive graphite rods are susceptible to breakage depending on several factors, such as a small fracture in the blank from mishandling.
im using a medheavy 13fish rod thats decently stiff, do you leave some drag for a med heavy or no drag? for frog fishing
Damn shame they discontinued the Terminator Walking Frog Jr the best frog ever made!
So for small frogs in structure like your fishing and around docks, do you use straight 30lb braid and for your heavier cover you use those standerd to large frogs with straight 50lb braid?
Was not even phased by that yellow jacket that was bearing down on him....
Would rather lose a small one from a hard hookset and heavy line than not be able to winch a big one in that is tangled in weeds. Not my biggest fish but had a 4lber on a frog early this year that I brought in with another 4lbs of veggies. If my drag wasn't locked it would have def been slipping the whole time. Casting isn't terrible either. With no wind I can cast all the way to my backing. Plenty far. I do have a bluegill colored frog I haven't used yet. Going to give it a go this weekend.
I’ve seen people catch em good on frogs but I’ve never caught em good on one. Maybe something I don’t know. Always been a mystery to me.

This is definitely more of a frog thing or heavy cover thing. If the bass is on the surface it means he’s not digging down in the weeds or wood getting hung up and unhooked.

Yeah, as Seth mentioned though, is it a 6-pounder or a 2-pounder. Sometimes tough to determine on the take. But it is funny seeing a minnow bass being launched from the water like a missile 🤣.
Why do so many people reel so fast that the fish skips on the water? Seems the fish can't fight back. Just curious. It was a great presentation. Thanks for sharing the info and posting.

Hey Peter, when you're pulling fish from heavy cover, getting them up on the surface is the best case scenario for landing the fish. If you give them a chance to dive back into the thick weeds like Seth was fishing, you risk losing the fish. Once you get them skipping, they're yours. Thanks for the comment and for tuning in!
If you are using a rod that’s a heavy rod and you’re frog fishing, I wouldn’t recommend braid under 50 pounds. I tried 30 pound when I first started fishing frogs, and you just don’t get the strength as you get w 50 pound +. I broke off a lot of fish too.

100% on two things…smaller frogs and bluegill pattern. The small terminators and the junior pad crasher bluegill colors are absolutely dynamite. About 80% of my frog fishing each year will consist of just those two baits. They’ll catch the frog monsters you’re chasing but they’ll also catch the 2lbers that might be a little gunshy about hitting a bigger frog. Frog is kind of a misleading term for what these baits imitate…to me, it’s always been bluegill struggling on the surface and small rodents as well as frogs
