I had to decommission this guy, it gave me everything it had and served me well, caught me a bunch of great fish. The next one in line has some very big shoes to fill. :)

Can't you change the tails? I think you can, just pull a tab or 2 through and you're good to go. Baits aint done til they are done and past reviving.

The skirt isn't the issue with this frog Oldfart, there are a couple of things that the pics don't show that render that used frog ineffective.

So how long was that soldier in service Lou? How many fish do you figure that thing has caught?

Cojab that frog was less than a year old, and it caught me at least 50+ bass.

It's a great color John, I'm glad a buddy of mine showed me how effective this color can be.

Sweet!!! I have that same frog. Close to twice as old as that battle worn dude. With as many as mine has caught I imagine it can go at least that far again! lo lo

I understand.  they do need to be able to float.

I'll share a photo of a good frog that started the day new out of the package... and on a club tournament day.



Good times!

What color/brand was that frog.  I am going to have to try that out.  Once the frogs come out in the evening here.  Slipped far under docks will be money Id think.....

If you were asking about mine, Lip was correct. LiveTarget.

FATFLATTIE

I am highly upset at Live Target, they stopped making my 2 favorite colors, Black and Tan and green sienna. I am not a happy camper.
Life's short, fish hard.

Lou, you have it mounted like it's doing it's magic over some pads and place it where you see when you walk by or out of the corner of your eye as you sit pondering the wichness of the why, having a cold one or 3. ;D lo
