Anyone still using topwater frogs? What size or color are the best for largemouth?

White, bone, black, natural and I myself really like the spro Jr size frogs. Those colors cover about everything you will need. The black works good at night also, I have caught a few on it.

Should I get the black with yellow patterns or just black?

Black, Bone(White), Chartreuse. Those 3 colors are all you will need. My personal rankings would be #1-chartreuse, #2-white and #3-black. Remember, the bass actually only sees the bottom of the frog so the bottom color is what catches the bass, the top color catches the fisherman . Also, black and yellow bottom would be good...in fact I just ordered one in that color. Black with blue is a good bottom color too.

Give the Rage Toad in green pumpkin a try.

 

Just wait for @Jaderose to respond :). I use frogs sparingly and I like the Scum Frog Trophy Series. Green and black have been good colors for me so far. Scum frogs rock.

Been using the original Scum Frog for over 15 yrs and the Trophy Series periodically, won’t use any others. 
Green pepper is my go to color 90% of the time. 
Black is a distant 2nd

You can if you want to but I just use the straight black one, believe me my frog selection is not huge but ok in size and it has multiple colors. I have caught fish on those three colors mostly, just keep it simple if it works use it. The tackle monkey likes multiple colors but you don't really need to have them all, lures aren't Pokémon you don't need to have them all lol.

Yes, white, black, and natural/brown are my favorites. 

Use the brand of your choice just make sure it has a white belly.

Lol....Yeah....pretty much this^^.  My go to for many years is the Scumfrog Trophy Natural Black and Green but I have other colors and for my style of fishing heavy mats, I don't believe it really matters.  If you are fishing areas with pads or open water, I believe there are probably better choices.  The TS frogs do not "walk the dog" all that well.  I tried the Scumfrog Launch frog this year and found it doesn't really do anything beyond the TS Frog to justify paying more for it.  I also really like the Booyah Pad Crashers...particularly the little one.  I fish those weird, though.  I cut the legs OFF of them.  Completely.  THOSE I do throw in open water and reeds and stuff.  They become this spastic little nugget that seems to drive bass nuts.  They're cheap enough...buy a black one and a white one and try it.  

I also like the Spro Bronzeye Frogs but, again, they don't do enough to justify their cost above the Scum Frog, unless you are talking the King Daddy.  That thing is a monster that I can spool my rod with when casting way out on those mats.  I LOVE those frogs but they will wear you out chucking them for a couple of hours.  Don't waste money on "hyper-realistic" paint jobs or gimmicks like the Lunkerhunt "realistic" legs.  The paint job is for you and those legs will get torn off immediately.  As others have said, you need White and Black bottoms.  Others said chartreuse and I have no argument against it but I would also throw green in there before chartreuse.  Bass are not trying to decide if that is a Tree Frog or a Swamp Frog.  They see and hear movement and think FOOD.  Also, do not equate price to quality.  I laugh when I go on TW and see frogs for 15-20 bucks.  I can buy Scumfrogs and Pad Crashers for 5-6 bucks every day and see ZERO drop off in quality or number of fish.  I'll fish them until they fall apart.  

Just an old froggers opinion.  I go for value and usefulness.  Does this bait do what I want it to do at a price that is acceptable to me?     This one checks all those boxes....

 

 

See those eyes?  Those are stickers. They will come off.  It doesn't matter at all.  Keep on fishing them and don't bother trying find them or put them back on.
