Largemouth BassTechniqueFrogs/ToadsSeasonSummerStructureLily PadsHit the lake early morning before it got busy. Got onto a great frog bite working overtop of the emergent grass and scattered pads. This terminator frog has the best walking ability of any of the frogs I’ve thrown and really triggers strikes. Being able to walk the bait sideways in small pockets triggered the best strikes. Flipped a few docks as well moving around, slow bite but put a few in the boat there as well. Best docks had a deep front edge and nice cabbage underneath.
