Topwater Fun With A Rebel Frog-R

Featured Replies

I was able to get out of work early the other day and was able to do some fishing. The pond is right on the way home, had a really nice shady end and was calm with a little surface disturbance. I looked to see what I had in my tackle box and saw that I had a Rebel Frog-R. What the heck, let's give it a whirl!

I fished this lure around lilly pads and other emergent vegetation and had a lot of fun catching bass under 2 lbs. It's a smaller walk-the-dog type lure at about 2 1/4" inches and casts very well with it's 3/8 oz weight. The lure sits in the water at a nice 45* angle, so start-up on the retrieve is easily achievable. It has a fast walk to it due to it's smaller length and any minor surface disturbance to the water gives it a nice bounce/skip to it.

I fished it on a 6'0 MH, moderate action rod with 12 lb P-Line C21. I didn't catch anything over 2 lbs, but the water I fished it in usually doesn't have larger fish in the shallows this time of year.

Great lure if you want to go out, have fun and catch numbers. I'm sure it's capable of catching a nice quality fish. Give it a whirl!

Sounds like a great day.

You cant beat topwater action !

Awesome review I just purchased all four colors of the rebel frog r. I just purchased the rebel frog pop r too (popper version).

I can wait to get out and try them.

I have had pretty good succes on the frog R it's got a nice tight walking action.  I did put a split ring on the front of it
