Rebel Frog-R

by Leave a Comment

Leave it to Rebel to come out with a new frog  this year called the Rebel Frog-R. There is something to be said about fishing topwater frogs, and one that cost under $5 is awesome in my opinion. From what I have read, this lure has spook type side to side action if you work the rod tip. I am looking forward to fishing this lure. These lures are 2 inches long and weigh 3/8oz.… ...Read More

Trying to buy one can cost you anywhere from $15 to the unthinkable on ebay….for a bunch of wire? You can not argue it’s success though. I will pass on them for now and pick one up in the clearance… ...Read More

Artificial Structure

What is artificial structure? In my opinion it is man made structure that mimics natural habitat that attracts fish. A goal of mine is to one day own my own little private pond and manage it for trophy bass. We all have dreams, this is one of mine. I love fishing small bowl shaped kettle ponds down at Cape Cod. These ponds are not over-fished because there are so many… ...Read More

I am a sucker when it comes to trying new baits. We all are, who are you kidding? The Original Menace Mander is one sick looking bait. I bet when the topwater bite is on this lure will be off the charts. The price point is $22.99 but according to the folks at Evolve their products are hand-molded and individually detailed. They also use dura-resin and and not pressed… ...Read More

Pond X

Pond X, what does that mean? I will tell you what it means, when someone refers to pond x they are saying in a friendly way that you will never know where their secret honey hole is.
