3 New Frog Fishing Tricks To Catch More FIsh!

[@Ringtail273]

The Bob Ross of bass fishing! My favorite KZbin channel. Thanks for all you and Tim do for the fishermen out here.

[@ericswafford9149]

Agreed for sure!

[@ronlewis2448]

Bob Ross! Hilarious!!!

[@tacticalbassin]

LOL! Thank you

[@evanwilliams9217]

We don’t miss fish here we have happy little quick releases

[@scottgoffinet6936]

[@roydavis3910]

Thank you, Matt! Without a doubt the most informative fishing channel out there.

[@cooperputnam189]

I caught my PB on a frog 2 days ago 🥳🥳

[@bryceblankenship3525]

I caught my PB on a Zara spook 2 days ago!

[@upthecreekyt]

@@bryceblankenship3525 Congrats to both of you 👍

[@bryceblankenship3525]

Up The Creek long 9 pounder without a huge gut

[@Tommylamb16]

I think he needs to buy more frogs he doesn’t have enough

[@keenanmoore264]

I'd be happy getting 3 frog videos a week all year...

[@schadow0418]

I fish in Europe and once i was frog fishing. Little do i know that in that pond there ara pike that really like frogs. Threw it in there and a nearly 3ft pike jumped on it. Light line, light rod, an byebye froggy

[@J.Silva.Fishing]

“Wouldn’t it be nice to catch one together?” Lmao! The Mister Rogers of Froggin... I’m dyin here. Great stuff as always. Frog is by a long way my favorite way to fish and I never go out without a dedicated frog setup on my kayak. Using a 7’ heavy for me is the way to go. Big guy but I think the kayak makes the heavy work better for hookset than an X.

[@rolandleies9765]

Hahaha I was about to make the same comment about Mr Roger's lol

[@johndoe-pb4mv]

You guys need to do a toad video as well. Some reason, I been getting a lot of bites on toad because I think too many folks are throwing frogs. Everyone seem to forget about the good ol'toad.

[@ScuffedEngineer]

I think their older toad video is still relevant.

[@kentsmith1253]

You are selling yourself short Matt if you’re not trying a solid bodied frog. The best on the market in my opinion is the Stanley Ribbit frog. I use 40-50 lb braid with a single 5/0 hook with the twist lock. I am absolutely addicted to this frog. It fishes must faster than a hollow frog. I keep one tied on year around. Please give this frog a chance. I think if you try it then you WILL find a place in your arsenal for it. I fish in Alabama. 90% on the Coosa river. I love the videos that you and Tim make. Hopefully y’all will come to the Coosa river and hook into these bad ass spotted bass we have here. Enough preaching hookem good brother.

[@deanlyons703]

The 7’2” HVY Curado is the exact rod I use for frogging. Made my day to see you pick up that rod!

[@michaelclement6905]

Dean Lyons same with 50lb braid and a curado xg

[@jaydengardner5093]

I use the 6’10 heavy because I fish from the bank.

[@Tuscanygp]

Great video! I've definitely learned a lot and improved a lot with frog fishing because of your videos. Yesterday evening I went on a body of water where a lot of guys throw frogs, but all from bass boats or the bank. Being a kayak angler has its perks! I found a 6 inch deep channel that went on for a good 100' that opened up to a semi open water Lily pad field that was untouched by anglers. It was like stepping or paddling into another world. Got on some big bass, got some beautiful photos, and some cool slow motion release footage. You and Tim should get those kayaks out more. See if there are places that only small watercraft can get you into that no one else can get to. You may just find a hidden Oasis inside of a heavily fished body of water like I did. Thank you again for all the informative videos! Tight lines 🎣

[@pjaydorman8263]

Hey Matt how bout a horny toad vid? Would love to see how you guys use and perfected that style of fishing. Thanks for the great videos.

[@cfen281]

Great Vidoe like usual! You guys are honestly the best fishing channel on KZbin. I've recently fell in love with frog fishing the past few months and I've learned so much from you guys. Keep up the great stuff!!

[@bassjunkie4881]

Your video got me amped yesterday went out on my kayak and nailed a handful of fish got one really nice 6 pounder all on a scum frog love it thanks for getting me motivated

[@zekereed5990]

Got my first 3 on a Walmart frog today. So dang fun. Great video Matt, keep me coming!!!

[@roninmax8189]

Have you guys tried the savage gear frog? I think they’re called the “lily ninja”, it has a great hookup ratio and it’s one of my new go-to frogs.

[@drumandball]

Ronin McTitty love that frog. The poppin one in particular. Best bang-for-your-buck frog that I know of

[@Balls119]

Ronin McTitty god I have caught so many fish on the lily ninja. It’s super soft and has a thin profile, the bass eat it so well

[@tagbdf1033]

#tacticalbassin frog vids def helped land more frog/fun fish this year. Awesome vid

[@buck19]

Ive found that setting the hook with the rod tip down towards the water helps increasing hook up rates versus setting the hook with the rod tip up. Went from loosing tons of strikes to landing about 3/4 of them.

[@SHess65]

Definitely the most informative fishing channel out there. I watch every video you guys publish and have never been disappointed in the content. I have learned so much from you both. I love seeing you guys fish with family sometimes since they are the most important people in our lives. Also love the friendship you guys have as true friends are a close second right behind family.

[@MistaGrim]

And they don't have to make dumb clickbait titles for their videos or do dumb things just to get views...just straight fishing facts and a wealth of information.

[@timlawrence7246]

Whacked them in your yard last week frogging near Rattle Snake. The evening bite is wide open.........

[@_Adam93]

Wouldn't have to catch a single fish in a 25 min video and no one complains about an "only casting" video. Clearly your viewers love watching videos - packed with awesome information

[@BeardedStigg]

Man your cast sound amazing 😆. It's like a well orchestrated Symphony.

[@joshnelson3541]

bearded stig I know right.

[@owenthunderguns3608]

Very random but the casting sounds just like the sound effect used in the movie 'Watchemen' when "Night-Owl" drops out of his ship. "ZZZZZZZZZZIIIIIIiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiip"

[@rafabonati7757]

Just started to frog fish. Got one. Fun!

[@240Sil]

I'ts fun being able to toss it just about anywhere!

[@gtflyer]

No love for the Live Target frogs..?

[@sueyeet6900]

I use a 7’6 13 fishing Defy Black MH on 30lb and I’ve landed probably 80% of the bites this year. Great advice

[@randyadams5793]

Man what I would do to hit a morning Frog run in clear lake whit Matt and Tim......btw Awesome vid was waiting for a new one

[@Bluezkat1]

Once again, phenomenal info! Great vid bro! Evergreen SS frog was gettin torn up for me a few weeks back.... walks so easily, pretty cool frog dude

[@zachsimon9475]

I use a frog made by Orvis. It slays. Some of the heavier fly patterns like the frog or dragon tail work great for Large Mouth.

[@riclindsey329]

I guess I'm abnormal cause since the 80s I've used that same rod for my Spinners,my jigs and my frogs,, it's nothing fancy either,, it's a Quantum 7' MH Bill Dance Eclass composit rod,,topped with a 6:4-1 Quantum Energy reel loaded with Stren 20 lb mono and it'll pull a pig from the back 40 😂

[@rg7783]

My favorite frog rod was a 7' 6" Medium Lite Extra Fast Action Avid series spinning rod with 20lb braid. Never had an issue with the line breaking. Did loose a few fish that went into cover. I would reel up to them in my kayak, still under tension, then realized the fush was gone. The point is most people would never even try that set up for frog fishing because advice the one found in this video says the same thing every else says. I am moving up to a 7' 6" medium heavy nrx plus and sure that I'll be just fine.

[@slickline4576]

Hey Matt what is your home water's... I fish SW PENNSYLVANIA JUST WONDERING IF A brown frog works where you live Cross Creek lake gets pounded all day long most anglers don't throw Brown lures

[@bwoody6370]

Man, can you imagine spending a few days with Matt and pick his brain? That would be a fisherman's dream. Bless you all at Tactical Bassin!

[@ctking100]

It would be nice to see a few different clear shots of the cover your throwing to and talking about. Working on your camera skills is going to be the single biggest thing that will improve your channel imop.

[@mattseifert]

I second this!

[@shipwrek4388]

I caught my first three on frogs a couple of weeks ago and it's my favorite way to fish now. My son got his first too and it was the biggest of the day. I'm addicted for sure.

[@Carolinafishingtales]

Dude! By far, the best Frog video out there. Thank you so much. I am that kind of person. I like to go in a different direction most times than everyone else. I just started using frogs literally last week. My friend said try it and I did. I got bit and oh my ! I am addicted to using frogs. Again, thanks for the video. I'm gonna watch your other ones and look at the frogs you suggested. God bless

[@kenmccarthyfishing]

Thank you Matt,WOW did you just cover EVERYTHING 👍👍 ,I use to throw a frog a lot and just fell away from it,bit it's time to bring it back 👊👊👍👍

[@c.shoefish]

Anyone else using a 6'6" H rod for frogging? Or am I the only one? I've tried those longer rods and I've just had much better luck on this old 20 year old H st croix....

[@natesomers5387]

Thanks for all your time and effort you and Tim put into the videos, It’s also great to see the channel grow you guys deserve every bit of success you get. Maybe one day I’ll get to meet you guys!

[@AnubhavAnkitGeorge]

Nice tips sir I go for snakehead fishing 3 to 5 days a week and I have black max and kayaking Royal legend but these reel retive after 2 to 3 month not remain smooth so I do oiling and greasing and after cleaning and oiling I don't achieve that smoothness as they were new. So, can u tell me why is it happing and how to get smoth retrive on my baitcasting reel. Plz respond, from India

[@travismorey9340]

I fish primarily sitting in a kayak... how does that change your gear or how you work the frog? The lack of leverage and line wrapping around pads can make things difficult!

[@loos15]

When are you guys coming to MN? Man would be awesome to see you guys out on Tonka!

[@loos15]

@Cerus98 O man, missed it :/ Thanks for the info!

[@kcrsxtypes]

I've caught all my frog fish on a 7'2" MH worm/jig rod with 20# braid. Never broke one off

[@primoservices5636]

Great video like always learned something. Your content is awesome . Keep up the good work and till the next one. Primo

[@RashidMalik-hd6fx]

Im using 7'6 feet long rod, xtra heavy pe6 with 60lb braided on my shimano metanium hg dc. It is very ideal for me to set the hook when the giant snakehead take a bite

[@scottdelnigro1799]

6'.6"med/ heavy 65 lb braid 90% hook up. Darker frog gets better bites here on cape cod

[@willis4734]

Frogging is my favorite way to catch bass nothing like seeing a frog get smashed. Love it

[@theinvade1197]

I just tried the Gavacho out here in AZ last week, and that thing just flat out works. Thanks guys for all the tips.

[@robm9181]

I'm 5' 7" and a 6' 10" medium-heavy extra fast is perfect for me. My hook up ratio is high. I rarely miss a fish even without modifying hooks. The shorter rod is key for me.

[@adriang9071]

You're short and sound like a dick! You must be fun to fish/ live with ....LMAO

[@bobbymabire1930]

Was wondering how to win or have a bad ass chance to come fish with Matt. I love to watch the videos of this channel and iv got alot of info from you guys .but would love to learn more, if its possible to fish with you guy let me know. I am subscribe to the channel

[@Adventures101.]

Great video would love to see you make a video like this but fishing frogs and casting out of a kayak that you can't stand up in.

[@davelester1985]

You showed how to reel in, jerky style, yet on almost all of the video, you are smoothly reeling in. I guess too much talking and not enough concentration?

[@rileydivine3609]

My biggest bass have came on frogs. I swear by Spro frogs

[@miguelguerrero2240]

My brother laughed at me cause my second time i went fishing i started throwing the frog cause it looked cool and sat on top, i started catching huge! Fish and he said thats it im trying the frog.

[@ddempsey83]

Any chance we could get a video with some insight on scents, attractants, and dyes

[@scottkidder438]

23:47 that was a hell of a boil behind you! P.S. my frog PB came on a tiny poppin frog from my sons box on a 5'6" medium rod with 12# braid... because that is what he forgot in my truck and I saw water on my way home from work lol.

[@terrytheone4482]

I use 50lb braid on a 7’2 heavy but where I fish there are no Matts or heavy cover

[@derrickhenry6423]

should see if tackle warehouse will give us discounts if we use you link and give you a kick back

[@joeellis4013]

A lot more people through a frog than a popper. I think they see way more frogs than poppers just my opinion everyone has one.

[@bonecc4061]

I tried using the frog twice and I haven’t fought a single thing. Not even a bite

[@jerrywayne8310]

Do you ever use a leader when frog fishing or do you tie directly to braid. jbwayne

[@joshwhitmore2671]

So I know y’all like putting rattles in your frogs but is there ever a time when you take them out

[@alexduzan7776]

still hvnt caught a bass on a frog yet but with all the froggin vids bout to get a huge blowup tonight thx

[@douglasbryant4940]

Awesome tips, live near Clear Lake😁👌👍

[@derrickhenry6423]

enjoy how you post every link and give explanation

[@Fbarts]

I put a piece of the loop side of velcro on my frogs and get more hook ups.

[@caseywebb5178]

Tim, the best bass fishing teacher I know!

[@bigjustfishing8896]

what brand and model reel would you suggest man

[@wolfpacak47]

does using a swivel impeade walking a frog ??

[@hookingdeltabass6006]

Did you do this in California

[@travistrent4880]

When he said Jackal Gavacho it was SoCal af.

[@jamesamaro]

Its froggy season

[@piratestudiosproductions]

You need to try the reactions Innovations frog. It's like the exact mold of the tekel boot tail. It's got super sharp hooks, and it's the easiest walking frog compared to the bully Wa and my booyah.

[@mirlin12]

What real is that ? Your throwing it effortless

[@justinshedaker1229]

I love Frog fishing.

[@TiggsTailsFishing]

Man that reel really sings! It’s beautiful!

show some action,not just yourself

[@bosshogg6653]

Matt Allen the frog whisperer !!!

[@FoxXi3]

50 lb is light line LOL really?!?!?!

[@FishingWithFred]

Definitely had to get used to my 7'3 heavy since I'm a smaller guy. Thought I had the first fish curse on my new rod but finally got used to it and now man!

[@mindobersaglia3374]

Frog fishing is awesome !

[@HookLife]

I don’t mind you being long winded one bit 😳🤣. Seriously Matt you guys are great and I really enjoyed this video. Rods up and tight lines!

[@OkieOutdoorAdventures]

My PB came on a cheap $3 frog from a "big box store" - Just a little hollow body Kermie.. Great video as always, Matt!

[@manifestgtr]

The reason I throw a frog more than any other topwater is really just the versatility. You can walk it along a brush pile, throw it INTO that brush pile then haul off into 30 yards of pads and grass....it’s equally at home all those places. A lot of guys say they have issues with hookups and I used to. I just woke up one day and said “I’m going to learn how to frog and that’s it...I’m not stopping until I catch something with one”. Went out with determination, caught some and now it’s a confidence bait. Same thing with jigs...I spent nearly 20 years saying “I don’t wanna deal with jigs”. Bit the bullet one day and stuck a decent bass under the FIRST DOCK I put one. Felt a little weight on my line, watched it start moving to the side and BAM...another new confidence bait by the end of day one. You just have to use these baits. They work...trust me, they all work...

[@pelagicprincesses6123]

Sadly, it’s taken almost the entire Summer for the mats to appear in the Lucerne/Nice area. However, we’ve smashed them on the BubblePopper and Yellow Magic all of June and July. And, hookup is close to 90% vs lower hookup rate with soft body frogs!

[@FishingWithFred]

"Bonus Bites" Are the Best lol. Another great TB session on the frog. Always seem to take away somthing from the videos keep it up guys!

[@TheDruxlol]

any tips for natural lakes in Wisconsin where ur just struggling to get bites at all on frog profiles?

[@bassjunkie4881]

Just put a diawa tatula 150 on my kastking speed frog rod and I'm loving life here in south jersey nailed one this morning on a scum frog with my stepson he couldn't believe it n scum frog just won't walk but it catches fish

[@rednecklowlife]

if its frog weather. all my rods are rigged with frogs!! I fish a frog all summer long! Love frog fishing!

[@mattseifert]

Hey bro, do you like frog fishing? lol jk

[@zachshott7833]

Do you guys use Ish's frog at all? I have a hard time fishing it because 80% of the time it lands upside down. I know it's designed for super thick cover, more so than the BullyWa, so when it lands upside down the hooks always catch debris. Also, have you guys tried the Evergreen SB55(??) Frog, with the rabbit fur for a tail instead of silicone. I picked one up over the winter and I'm thinking it might just be that little smthn differnt.

[@Sebastianbartledoo]

im 2 months into this bass/baitcasting learning experience and ive never been so pissed off in my life, but yet ive never had so much fun since ive figured it out. i like this different non spinning reel fishing. what rod/braid do you suggest for a big 6'5 burly dude? i wanna be able to fire a frog/big dumb swimbait through a brickwall and or launch them into orbit. ive broken 2 lews rods so far just because i didnt want to lose my high dollar swim baits. the 6'10 rods aint doin it for me.

[@giacchinoculotta7354]

What do you guys think of zmans new, frogs personally I think the walk pretty good and easily. Just wondering if you’ve tried them and your opinion. Thanks TB for all you do you guys are awesome.

[@BorneoFishStation]

Matt and Tim . I would like to see how California largemouth will react to a Jump frog. A jumpfrog is a straight retrieve topwater bait that we use for Snakehead in Malaysia. Check it out. Like the channel btw.

[@justin5345]

I originally got the Shimano Curado 7’5” heavy action , I don’t really like that rod . Tackleware house had a 15% off sale on dobyns rods for July 4th, bought a 736 champion xp . Was going back and forth between that and a 735 champion xp . I haven’t got a chance to use it yet hopefully it works out better ! Great video as always .

[@djw101987]

It's all about confidence. I learned to frog fish with a Ugly Stik rod from Walmart and 10 pound mono. I finally upgraded to a medium heavy casting combo with 20 pound braid and do just fine with a frog.

[@jamestylerwhitaker438]

I know you guys like the Dobyns champion line , why do you preferred the Shimano 7’3” X to the dobyns 736?

[@joebridges1878]

Frog bite education; check that box. Frog bite confidence; check that box. Thanx Matt,,,

[@kylecribb5618]

I have never fished a frog. My buddy just gave me one. I haven't even looked at it much. I'm off with another friend tomorrow to a lake known for big bass in NC. I can't wait to try what I have learned here. My thanks to you and Tim for your videos.

[@philipkennedy8085]

So I've been occasionally throwing a frog in the mornings this summer, actually been throwing it and or a whopper plopper. I have not caught a single fish on either. I've had quite a few swirls on the frog, but it's like they wont commit to blowing up on it. I bought a 7'4" heavy bass x for frogging and paired it with a curado k and 65# braid. I've tried the little Allen, The white version, live targets frog in white. Savage gear a little smaller one in black. The gavacho . Today I down sized to a 7'1" mh and threw the little jackall one you recommended a few videos back. Had one just barely swirl on it.. so either I'm doing something wrong. Fishing it to late in the morning . Or the bass in my lake are crazy, or something. I actually dont fish the frog very long anymore because they wont bite. Last year a caught a few . My home lakes are relatively small compared to how many guys fish it. And its pretty much beat up by now and hard to catch more than a couple fish in a day. I need to start branching out to other semi close public lakes. Which closest one that doesnt have a motor restriction is over 2 hours away.

[@Jimpenske]

Caught my pb frog fish yesterday after watching this video!!! 4-7 blew up where current met the still water of a lake. Tacticalbassin is the best on KZbin! Thanks for all the tips!

[@MisterWolf8888]

What kind of reel is that?
