Buzz Versus Hollow-Body Frogs | When and How to Fish

[@vincentgelles3805]

That Savage Gear duratech toad is amazing! I’ve caught so many 5 and 6 pound largemouth on it. I love being able to stop it next to a stick up or grass patch without it sinking. Best buzz toad by far

[@bobcragle8124]

Well done my friend. I like fishing frogs. you just taught me the difference in frogs and how to really fish them. I also like spoons , thanks very much. I'm just an old ground pounding river bank fisherman, without a boat.

Solid info.

[@mattthomen1608]

Stanley top toad is my favorite buzz toad,and I exclusively fish a buzz frog.i don't care for walking frogs or popping frogs. The kick legs are good for agressive bass and if you hammer it I to hvy covered you can blip the legs to draw viscous stikes .

This and the buzzbait vid yall just dropped proves your thinking of me. 😂😂

[@Gumby905]

I always prefer buzz frogs if I can.. if the weeds are thick enough they just sit up top just like the hollowbodies.

What pound braid are you using? Bob

[@davidrussell9290]

50-65# I bet. That's what most people use with frogs, depending on conditions. I use 55#

Savage Gear needs to beef up their hook they include in the package. I’ve bent them out and they are not ideal for heavy cover but the frog is awesome

[@Michaeldpress14]

Have you found a a better hook for it ?

[@RyanSmith-fb8rf]

@@Michaeldpress14 actually yes I have. I’m now using the Mustad Grip pin hooks in 5/0. The bait holder on the grip pin hooks is key for the elaztek frogs and these are much stronger hooks. Try them out you won’t be disappointed and will save you some heartache. Much better than the hooks that come with the Duratech toads

[@Michaeldpress14]

@@RyanSmith-fb8rf that’s what I’ve been using too

Top surface frogs are fun

[@Michaeldpress14]

I tried the savage duratech in a tournament last weekend and it crushed .

[@garywest2250]

I don't consider a buzz toad as "frog fishing"

[@davidrussell9290]

Me either. It's a toad.
