Choose Your Wood: Select a suitable block of light wood that is easy to carve and floats well in water. This forms the foundation of your frog lure.
Use your wood carving tools (I used a Dremel rotary tool) to shape the body of the frog.
Sand the carved body with various grits of sandpaper to achieve a smooth and polished finish. This step ensures that your lure moves seamlessly through the water.
Get creative with acrylic paints to add lifelike colors and patterns to your wooden frog. Mimic the appearance of real frogs found in your local fishing spots to enhance its attractiveness.
Apply a clear sealant to protect your paint job and increase the longevity of your wooden lure. This step is crucial for maintaining the lure's effectiveness over time.
Install treble hooks using split rings, ensuring they are securely attached to the body. This step is essential for hooking those elusive bass successfully.
Take your homemade wooden frog lure out for a test run. Adjust the buoyancy, colors, or hook placement as needed to optimize its performance.

Nice work on the frog. It has a great Walk-the-Frog action. I kept waiting for the blow-up! I've made a few topwater frogs. Got the design ideas from a KZbin channel called Haru834, I believe he's from Taiwan. He is a master at making frog lures.
