Bass that are jumping. Please help.

Frog article by David P. (Brokeju)
broke, nice read. tell us what dictates which frog you use. between hollow bodys and solid bodys. i used to think hollows worked across scum and veg matter produced more than working them across open water, where they get a good look at it. where as burning a solid across the open surface produces more than burning it across scum and mats because its basically in a constant strike zone. but my theorys are falling apart with every frog article i run across.

Got a wet cell phone? Find some rice...
ive had a couple different phones become completely submerged before that all eventually dried out and worked fine, without rice. which i'm sure speeds the process but cell phones are tough little buggers. except iphones, i'd imagine

Ruby Red Color Baby Brush Hog?
i've done well with that color in other plastics. done really well with brush hogs. bet they'd be deadly in 6" to 2 feet of stained water right now. been catchin em on red lizards (to a bass, same thing as a brush hog) this week like that, swimming em like a spinnerbait in the evening

I made a mistake...
They also like shinny things hence the best lure for females is a pink spinner bait with to silver willow leaf blades make nice ear rings ;D i know if i saw a lady that had spinnerbait ear rings, i'd be asking em out. ;D except not. GF may not appreciate that

The Bass That Hooked YOU?
Nice glenn. The one that hooked me was when i was around 9 years old. I knew nothing about bass fishing. I went up river with my dad to catch bass from a little boat he'd borrowed one day. We weren't really catching anything as I was used to brim or catfishin. We were just happy to be out there. Eventually i got the pops to tie on a crankbait cause i thought it looked cool, and I just started chunkin it right out in the middle. After a few casts, i had one on, and it was big. Given the mental image I still have i'd say it was at least 3 pounds, which is huge for a first bass. I'd give anything to see my face in that moment in time. Well given i knew nothing about properly settin a hook or steering a fish in, it came off. My rod fell out of my hands and i just stared where the bass had last jumped. As that spot slowly got closer with the boat drifting down the river towards it (insert surreal silence), i saw the crankbait, floating in two pieces. That beautiful, floating balsa cross section, instilled in me, a potent flavor of revenge so immensly desirable, that I knew from that point forward, it was on like donkey kong. 20 years later. i've crossed so many eyes on that river, i feel like i've managed a decent revenge, but still have that burning desire to catch bass. 8-)

Got married and stuff.
congratulations bro. classy pics. what are you gonna do with all your rod and reels? ;D

New PB!
nice catch, but really i'm just posting to get off of 666 posts

The biggest bass on the lightest line you caught!What bait?
5.13 8 pound vanish on a med spinning rod. a healthy head shake from a fish that weighs 5.13 exceeds the weight of the fish, and probably line test too, its all about proper drag settings. i caught a 35 pound catfish on 6 pound test at the spillway here several years ago. now that was ridiculous
-
FINALLY!
congrats. when all else fails...senko right? missin those frog hits would have killed me though! i like to feel the weight of the fish before i set the hook with frogs. also, using braid would increase your chances in a hook set, especially with hollow body frogs
