how to skip something like a frog with a baitcaster???

ill take anyones opinion

It will be very hard to describe through words but I skip a lot of flukes and Senkos when fishing boat dogs and low hanging branches.

You will want to make a side arm cast and skip the bait like you would a rock. You may want to tighten up the spool or atleast thumb it pretty good while you practice. It does take a little practice to get good at it.

thanks for the reply. i have tried it but i always seem to get a little back lash any more tips?

I think you have to crank down your cast control setting.  

cast control setting?? is that the same as the spool speed adjustment?

sounds like you are asking for a headache. just get your self a spinning rod for skipping

It is very hard but all I can say is practice. Try to get as much velocity as you can on your lure.

lol kms thanks for the advice. thanks all others who replied

A few keys are to...

use a bait that is conducive to skipping, like a tube, beaver, etc.

use a sidearem cast aiming a little low (i.e. to the outside of a piece of cover you are trying to penetrate) and have your thumb on the spool when your bait first hits the water (feathering but not stopping).  It will generally make a fairly large skip upon first contact with the water and then come to a rest.  Your thumb on the spool immediately when your bait hits the water determines whether you backlash or not.  If you are late with your thumb slowing down the spool you get a classic backlash.  You need to time your thumb to where it feathers the spool as soon as your bait makes first contact with the water and skips under the desired cover.  When your bait skips, you shouldn't apply full-on brakes...just feather it enough to slow the spool down.  Skipping with a baitcaster isn't necessarily a beginner's technique, but any angler that is skilled with a baitcaster can master this techinque.  It isn't as difficult as you might think!

Practice practice practice.

A shorter rod with a bit of tip helps as well.
