Great video! Loved hearing more about these invasive species and how to distinguish them from our native frogs. Your dish looked delicious!

I need to get off my butt and set time off to jump on one of these trips or more importantly, a spearfishing trip. I'm new to the sport and have much to learn. The man is a wealth of knowledge.

Many years ago when I was a young man I'd use a 10-12 bamboo pole with 4 ft. of mono and a large white streamer fly. Worked.

It's also a lot of fun to use lures to catch them with a fishing rod. Last one I caught was on a bass lure with my spinning rod.

Crazy! Were they edible frogs? I have heard that some places have crazy toxic frogs and toads but my knowledge of these amphibians is really limited to CA where they are non-toxic.

Hey Kevin. It’s Tao again. In the early 1990s, we used to go fish for frogs using rod and reel and a jig that looks like a spider. You basically go to a swamp or pond and dangle that jig in front of them like a cricket and we caught a ton. Haven’t done this for 30 years so not sure how the sport is anymore

@catchncookcalifornia1574 Жыл бұрын
We tried it one year and it did work. I think the prongs were too thick that year though. With thinner prongs like we were using on this vid the bungee would likely be a winning combo.

Where can someone find the California regulations on methods to take this species and limits. I've seen other KZbin content creator @FLAIR take bullfrogs by many methods. In the Duck Dynasty TV Series they caught them by hand.

If you look at the PDF of the Cal DFW inland sport fishing regulations you will find all of the details. Here in CA you are allowed to take them by gig/spear, hand, hook and line and paddle (no joke). wildlife.ca.gov/Fishing/Inland

Holly, thanks for commenting. It took me a moment to respond as I have been traveling and visiting family in Asia for the past week. As a PhD on the archaeology and anthropology of forager societies with a sub-emphasis in human evolution, my thoughts on traditional food procurement strategies may differ from that of your own upbringing. For me, as was the traditional way of our ancestors for hundreds of thousands of years, I would far prefer to bring my fish, game or (in this case) frogs to the table by actively hunting or foraging. To me it is far less cruel to outsmart and take an animal that has lived its whole life free and outdoors eating healthy and wild than it would be to eat chickens raised their short force-fed lives in solitary confinement in cages stacked on cages under artificial lights, or to eat steak from cows raised shoulder-to-shoulder on a feedlot, with antibiotic-rich grains intended to prevent disease from spreading in these crowded unnatural settings while fattening up these animals at unnatural rates and on unnatural foods only to then be loaded onto a conveyer belt to have a mechanized steel spike driven through their heads. The idea of what is cruel is really in the eye of the beholder and is a direct product of our own cultural backgrounds and the systems of shared and learned behaviors and norms of our own cultures. When it comes to my subsistence, I try to take a path more consistent with my own ancestors and the Old Ways. While I respect that your opinion differs from mine, I do ask that you try to understand that I was raised in a foraging culture that may differ in some ways from the culture of your own upbringing. In anthropology we try to step away from the ethnocentric view of cultures (viewing them through our own cultural lens) and adopt a view of cultural relativism. When it comes to hunting, fishing and foraging, I strongly encourage you to adopt a more cultural relativistic view as calling someone cruel for engaging in foraging is very much a part of an old colonial narrative rooted in erroneous progressive social evolutionary theory where agrarian peoples passed (and continue to pass) judgment on foraging societies citing some sort of self-affirming moral high ground. I sincerely doubt that you consider yourself as morally superior to Indigenous foragers (for instance) and am sure your comment was more of a knee-jerk reaction, but I do encourage you to evaluate such comments before posting on other channels in the future. Lastly, this video was clearly titled Frog Catch and Cook so you knew what it would be about when you decided to watch. If that type of content is not to your liking, please try some of our other videos on foraging of fungi (for instance) or, if you are still opposed to the foraging way of life, please look elsewhere for content to view in the future. Thank you for your time.

@catchncookcalifornia1574 My comment was in reference to the comment you made about it being brutal but that it was ok because they are an invasive species. First, I enjoy your videos!! I was born and raised in Louisiana, hunting is a way of life, deer, rabbit, squirrels, duck, hogs, fishing, and yes frogs!!!!!!! However, they way we go frogging is with our bare hands and flashlights. Once caught, we put them on ice that puts them to sleep so they do not jump around and then we humanely put them down at the end of the hunt. As we do enjoy a good hunt, I have been taught to respect my prey and always be humane as possible. I am on the fence about your lecture as to whether I should be offended or tickled that you made such a judgment about me lol. Please continue to make awesome videos. I just have a little respect for what you hunt invasive or not.
