Best/favorite Frog Rod Owned?

Featured Replies

Im in the market for a new frog rod and it got me wondering, what's your best/favorite frog rod you've ever owned?

i just picked up a cabelas tournament zx frog rod. havent used a frog with it yet but love the feel of the rod and i think itll perform great.

I purchased a G Loomis NRX 916 UBR and tested it out with some frogs this Fall. That rod has a ton of potential (and versatility). I will give it a true work out this Summer in slop and pad fields, but it definitely will have the power to hoist fish out of heavy slop.

ALX 7'4" Dragger custom with full handle and spiral wrapped mid-micro SiC guides. It's awesome for small swimbaits and c-rigs as well.

I got the same one. Am debating if it's too heavy for slop fishing here. I normally has a medium or medium heavy and haven't had a problem yet. Was considering exchanging it for a MH.

I like my Mojo Bass 7 foot hvy/fast. I can walk a frog easily, and i can skip a frog way back under trees and docks. Great backbone too. Great rod for 110$.

5 power for the not so thick, 6 power when it gets nasty.

I used an older Berkley Lightning Rod last year. It was a 6'6" MH.  I caught a BUNCH of fish on that reel.  I bought a 7' MH Mojo Bass this year.  It is lighter and I think it will be a darn good rod for frogs. 

custom rod 7'3 MH-H XF tip, love it can skip frogs under anything and since I am addicted to throwing em, I also have a *** 7'3 MHXF with a daiwa tat type R. cant wait to try that combo out

Powell Max 735. Mag Heavy power so you never have to worry if the fish is coming to the boat, absolutely love mine.

I use the Falcon Cara Jason Christie signature model, fits the way I fish frogs very well.

I just use a Powell Diesel 734. 7'2 MH/XF. It does the job well for around 60 bucks, which is great, because a frog is on it 24/7.

I like the pinnacle perfecta 7'3" MH-F rod. 3/8 - 1 1/4oz weights

I pretty much have hated every rod I ever owned for frogging that the mfg. labeled as a "Frog" rod. My favorites have been just good old fashioned 7' MH/F rods, for GP frog work, and then using a flipping stick for dragging them across mats.

I own a half dozen frog rods from loomis to falcon - my day to day favorite is the daiwa light and tough frog rod - not sure they're still on the market. Fished frogs 250-300 days a year for 5 yrs. the Daiwa was the all around best for me.

Dobyns Savvy 735

i cant see casting a frog on a 7'6 up rod and I am 6'2 lol , but I hardly have vegetation, I have really never had to drag a frog, always walk or spit

Powell Endurance 725. Its a freakin broom stick with a super soft tip. I used it last week for some 3/4 and 1oz wake baits and it did fine with that too! ,
