another tip for the short strikers is to take a treblehook cut the odd hook off then use it as a trailer hook hooking each hook into the upper part of the frogs legs it spreads them apart and gives the frog a little more action to i use this trick with the zoom hornytoad

Fishyrascal, I think your tip should be posted as it's very own tip instead being a part of this thread. Let me know you thoughts and I can make it happen  ;)

That is an awesome idea!!! I'm gonna add that to my arsenal of ideas.  Something I started doing last year is using a 4/0 Gamagatsu EWG hook, inserting a toothpick through the frog and the eye of the hook, and cutting the ends of the toothpick off.  This prevents the frog from falling down the hook and makes them last longer than when using the screw-in style hooks.  Hope my idea can help some of you also.
