I'm looking for a Jr sized - water proof  - frog as I just realized that my current frog(Spro which is great!) might be a tad too big for the fall season. What do you experts recommend? 

Jackall Kaera. Great smaller-sized frog.

 

Pocket frog

Same one, Jackall Kaera

Pad Crasher Jr.  Work well.  Cheap.  Readily available anywhere

Scum Frog Jr. ... ready for combat ...

 

LiveTarget Hollow Body Frog 1/4 oz.

If you like the regular sized spro 65, there's a size 60 "jr" size also available. They are my favorite small frog. 

 

The booyah pad crasher jr is too light, and the jackall one recommend above is pretty fragile in my experience. I bought two of the jackall ones, and neither one lasted more than a couple hours of use.

Interesting. I've had nothing but positive experience with those Kaera's. Haven't had the durability issues like you have. 

2nd the smaller Spro.

What's even more interesting is that beyond my issues with them, I have two close friends who have had the same problems as me. I can tell you that all three of us bought them from TW shortly after Christmas 2019, and all three of us bought the same handful of colors...Black Gill, and Glitter Blue Gill. The one lone survivor of the bunch belongs to one of my buddies, and in the color Glitter Hasu.

I love jackal baits.  But their frogs are garbage.  I'm with @ww2farmer save your money and get a little spro or a pad crasher jr.
