    One thing I've learned is whether you are on a boat or the bank, keep on fishing it to the very edge. Dont think you are out of the strike zone and let your guard down. Many times I've caught 5+ pounders 2-3 feet from the shore.

    I look forward to the day I get to try one of your frogs. I have been in the air force for 20 years and it's been hard to chase after anything outside the military that I wanted. I have had a dream to become a pro angler now for quite a few years...lately I've finally been able to start learning and fishing more. Yes that makes me a new angler....but I love watching all your videos. I've learned so much from them in a short time. I hope and pray all the time for the ability to become a tournament fisher. I also love that your a fellow believer. GOD IS GREAT!!!! Take it easy Mr. Martin. And again...thank you for your awesome videos!

    Great video!!! I also trim the tail alittle bit as was suggested by your dad!! Earlier this week I caught two nice bass (2.04 lb 16" and a 3.64 lb 19") using Spro Bronzeye Jr Frog (Red Ear color). I've been trying for awhile and this is the first time I ever caught a bass on the frog!! Very exciting for sure! Found an area on the lake that has heavy cover!! I mean the kind of cover, weeds, grass and yucky green stuff on top where you can barely even see the water. I knew there would be bass underneath and sure enough there were!! Now I am hooked on frog fishing for bass!! Thanks for this great video!! My bass weren't as big but still was awesome catching them!!!

I use yellow or other easy to see braid, should i leave it as is or color it with a Black Sharpie? What knot do you se to tie the line to the frog? If the bottom of most frogs are white, why does the top color , that the bass will likely never see matter? Thanks again for these vidS! Tightlines!

    For me this is a "dream come true" video. My primary interest in fishing is throwing the 🐸. Seeing Hillary preform the hook set gave me such motivation! ♥️ It. My one major obstacle is finding a good rod that is a HEAVY ACTION ROD and is still AFFORDABLE on a Senior Citizen's very modest budget. I fish from a very small boat. So I'm still figuring out what and how to make 🐸 🎣 work well for me. Any suggestions would be of great benefit to me and others who are navigating the waters and their limited budgets. Thank you, in advance, for any suggestions, especially what rod to buy before the summer season ends. I currently have a Lew's SMASH M/H but I know that combo does NOT have the 💪 to get the 🐸 🎣 done. Thanks again! Way to GO HILLARY -- YOU'VE GOT THIS 👏👍🙌 !!

    Scott, I have a question that me and some fishing buddies were talking about. The leopard frog you showed is a great example. It seems like lure makers put very fancy and life like paint jobs on lures, BUT only on the top. The bottom of the lures is just white. The fish can't see the top of the frog and many other top water lures. Why do they not pain the bottom of the lures?
