For a long time I've used Scum Frogs however recently I've been fishing cover that requires me to pitch the Scum Frog sometimes up to 50 feet. I've threaded a small section of a Yamamto grub onto the link between the hook tie and the double hook and it helps a little.

By the way I'm pitching with a Shimano 50 mg and 14# mono.

I'm seeking a floating frog type lure that is similar in size to the Scum Frog but is heavier. Perhaps any frog that is heavier is going to be bigger or have thicker plastic that hinders hook-ups.

Thanks for any help.

i think the spro bronzeeye frog is alittle heavier, not sure i never really fished with the scum frog. Try the bronzeeye frog not bronzeeye Jr    that might solve your problems, and you dont have to worry too much about hookups, even though frog fishing does have its misses the bronzeeye has the best hookup ratio that i have found in my frog fishing

My floating frog choice is the Scum Frog Bobby's Perfect Frog. For longer casts and heavier presence on mats, I remove the legs and glue lead weight in the leg holes. Small Mojo weights is my choice most of the time.

This bait is made by Snagproof and is also one of my favorites.

Scumfrogs are softer and tend to pick up more trash but give good hookups. Boze and Spro are also same size but a bit heavier.

Thanks ColdwaterBassin, I got my frog ID messed up. It definately is the Snag Proof brand. Larger hook with a more upright hook position for better hookups.

Thanks everyone for your suggestions.

My local sporting goods stores only stock Scum Frogs and it is good to get acquainted with other floating "frogs"

I'm looking seriously at the Spro Bronzeye frog in the 1/2 oz size or 5/8 oz.

I started fishing floating "frogs" with the "rat" which must have been more than twenty years ago. Good to expand my horizon with your suggestions.
