Topwater Frogs Frogs are topwater baits most commonly available in two forms: A hollow bodied frog that is pre-rigged A soft bodied frog that the angler can rig up Frogs function by creating a ripple and splash on the waters surface as they are delicately retrieved through cover

When tossing the Bubble Popper for either Striped Bass or Largemouth Bass, the same technique above applies to both, but when you see the stripers in a feeding frenzy or if you see blow ups, a faster retrieve may be employed

I have used baitcasting reels since the late 1980s

The curled tail gives the lure maximum movement when pulled through the water

Gerrys Pro Tip: Because braid has virtually zero stretch (usually less than 3%), it offers unparalleled bite detection
