    Ouch! Get well soon!

    Regarding the lost lures, I know your pain. I lost four hollow body frogs (two Booyahs and two Live Targets) to the SAME TREE. Nearly lost a fifth one last night too...

    Why did you toss your frogs into the tree? It's not squirrel season, is it?

    Were you not using heavy braid? You'd break your arms before you broke that stuff

    You do realize that live squirrels catch double digit bass, right? ;)

     

    They were fallen trees along the shoreline and partially submerged along with a bunch of overhanging bushes. I normally wouldn't throw a frog into them but a good bass angler friend of mine insisted there were bass there. They definitely were there, but the key was to cast UNDER the branches :D After a number of horrible casts the tree had a few new amphibian residents...

     

    I think I'll be thinking twice from now on before tossing a frog into a tree unless I'm sure I have a clear shot.

    40lb power pro. With the way it got stuck even the 65lb that I use in the summer wouldn't have saved them :( As it is I'm hoping to get out on a boat soon to retrieve the frogs...if they're still there.

    There's nothing worse than no bass :(
