How to Tie My Frog Fly Please Give It a Name!

[@AlvinDedeauxFlyFishing]

Help me name this fly!

Frogstomp, in memory of the band Silverchair.

Bad mutha frog

[@AlvinDedeauxFlyFishing]

@@chancekelley2695 That is a real good one.

[@franksabatino7576]

The folded foam top, rabbit strip legs, and rattling googly eyes are simply brilliant. I'd call it Rattlin' Ribbit! Alvin has been added to my list of cultural treasures, usually reserved for musicians, artists, and writers.

[@AlvinDedeauxFlyFishing]

Thank you!

[@rjohnson5120]

One of the great things about your videos and advice is that you don’t complicate things and you give options. Demystifying it all. Like this frog pattern. It’s hilarious because you could get all the materials to make one at a dollar store. Back in the day, they used to call a guy all dude’d up in cowboy clothes who was fake and obviously didn’t actually cowboy, a “dime store cowboy”. So that’s what I’m going to call it a Dime Store Cowboy 🤠 cheap and fake and comes from Texas. Lol! Gonna tie one up, googley eyes and all, and slap some water with it this weekend. Thank you, Alvin, for sharing your knowledge and making fly fishing accessible.

[@kirkross6594]

I know I am late to the party but just listening to the way Alvin described the action of this fly. I would call it the "Sliding Commotion".

[@Daniel_Loveland]

Looks great! The Texas Tadpole would be a fitting name.

[@charlieboutin3341]

Alvins Amphibian. (AA) 🙂. Love it! 👍👍. Lots of frogs croaking on the Pedernales in the evenings. I’ll be chunkin some of these real soon.🎣 Really appreciate you sharing it! We’re having Oktoberfisch Flyfishing Convention here in Fredericksburg on Oct 16/17/18 at Edgewater Springs on the Pedernales. You can find info on Fredericksburg Fly Fishers or Facebook, Lots of events and great fishing! Have great weekend Alvin! God bless

[@cooperwoods499]

So the double A?

[@alexanderc988]

I like your fly tying videos because they are easy.

[@AlvinDedeauxFlyFishing]

Thanks, that is what I was hoping.

[@stevelessard6216]

Agreed!!

[@russellgalloway350]

Name it the Dedeaux frog bomb...that thing is killer, I cannot wait to tie it/try it here locally on smallies!

[@johnanderson9596]

Boss frog

[@davidbortner5473]

Just tied a couple up. Easy Peasy greeny froggy.

[@coachdewalls9355]

I love all these "quick and dirty" guide flies. Makes tying so much more accessible and productive. I'm just tying because I want to fish, not necessarily to create works of art!

[@AlvinDedeauxFlyFishing]

That is how I see it as well.

[@chucklapine6782]

Im going to give that a try this summer.

[@AlvinDedeauxFlyFishing]

Good luck!

[@JohnSpeake-wf2hv]

Hip Hopper Frog

[@miahbushcraft]

I love all your tying videos, late to the game but I'd call this pattern the " Ribbit Rabbit "

[@kroberts2812]

Quick and easy, I like it!

[@AlvinDedeauxFlyFishing]

Thanks, good luck with it!

[@jonnyreach8345]

The flip frogger. Like the flip flop popper. If you changed the colors and had a zonker tail instead of legs it would be an AWESOME mouse fly

[@AlvinDedeauxFlyFishing]

Oh man I'm gonna try that.

[@chucklapine6782]

That looks great. I love using craft foam for topwater flies. i caught 90% of my fish on one pattern from May to late September and that was a green and tan chernobyl ant. I caught my second best bass ever and my best bass on the flyrod on it. Ill be trying out your popper pattern for sure when the ice melts here in Wisconsin.

[@petek1pml746]

Love the old school Chase bobbin! These frogs must be deadly in the Fla canals.

[@AlvinDedeauxFlyFishing]

So many people asking about those bobbins. I couldn't remember who made them, thanks.

[@ramblin660]

Sweeet frog! Can't wait to tie it & try it! Thanks for the demo!

[@chandlercausey9407]

You the man Alvin! Thanks brotha!! Bass bomber i think would be pretty fitting

[@davidsharp1424]

Thanks for making another fly pattern video! I'm all about the guide flies this year. The Splat Baby Frog; name adjacent to your last fly video!

[@MrReiko1078]

I would like to see a video of you throwing frog flies. What kind of cover you can pull fish out of and how extreme can you get with a frog fly. Better have that strip set down!

[@headClock]

Nice work

[@AlvinDedeauxFlyFishing]

Thanks

[@johnhaertling9600]

Quick and Dirty Frog, I have enjoyed each and every tye I have watched you tye, I like the quick flies that you don't have to fret over. Just tye it and fish it. Thank you sir.

[@gaterb11]

Love the content Alvin! Looks like a Krunchy Kermit to me!

[@torreyself]

Love these guide flies. Sure has made my tying life easier. I say this should be "Fabulous Fast Frog" - The Triple F

Glad you like it!

[@articchar-lf]

Thanks for the pattern ! Yummy! How about the "Cajun Drive-thru Slider"? That name could also be the category for any guide fly patterns with frog legs, LOL!

[@articchar-lf]

By the way, I'd like to know your opinion on why I get jumps from smallmouth but not largemouth, fishing 'em from the banks toward center of the river? 'Might be a question of depth. My spot is quite shallow. 15" Canadian largemouths might be lazier, I don't know, lol!

[@travishill3639]

Since the parts are pretty big (almost over the top) like Howler Bro’s designs, I’d call it Dedeaux’s Howler Hopper.

"All about that Bass" Foam Slider

[@Greedilox]

Texan Tiny Dancer or The Battletoad lol. Awesome fly yet again Alvin thanks so much. Bass season has been crazy here this year. :D

@@AlvinDedeauxFlyFishing I'd love to see a video about your time in Bad Mutha Goose and the transition from punk rock to fly fishing! You mentioned in one video about being on the road in a punk band, and I had to do some digging around to find out about your band. I bet you've got some great stories from back then!

Alvin I enjoy your fly tying videos very much....I've just started tying my own....I fish for bass at local over fished lakes here in Los Angeles....I just tried tying your frog fly but when I tested it it would not stay upright...I tied it on a streamer hook any suggestions

[@AlvinDedeauxFlyFishing]

Try using something that soaks up water on the bottom. Let me know if that helps.

[@juanantoniop.3993]

Hi Alvin, what I did was tie my version of the frog fly shorter.....closer to the hook shank with a slight angle to the head....I fished it today....no fish but dove and popped on retrieve....looked really good.....this action seems to work best for me on the urban lakes here in L.A...... Thanks for your response.....Juan
