I had my weirdest fishing experience today !!

Featured Replies

I was tossing a weedless frog in the slop, and as soon as it hit the water, I saw a swirl a few feet behind it. I thought it was a bass following it, but it turned out to be a big bullfrog. It followed it closely for about 10' then it jumped on it and engulfed the frog. Need less to say, I caught my first bullfrog(about 9") with a weedless frog.

LOL..must be some Big bullfrogs in that water.. ;D

I wonder...could you count that as beating the skunk..?  :)

Ive seen that before. Still cant belive they will bite topwaters though!

I hooked a cotton mouth once on a hula popper when i was a kid.

Boy, that sure was a weird fishing experience. 

I had never had this happen until last year.  I guess I caught nearly ten frogs last year and 1 or 2 so far this year.  It seems frog on frog violence is becoming an issue.

I used to fish a farm pond that had a lot of bullfrogs in it, and they would hit on plastic worms.  They never actually tried to eat them, they'd just latch on to them with their legs.  I could reel them completely in to the point where the worm was an inch off the end of the rod, and they would still be hanging on for dear life. 

I was fishing a poppin frog years ago and hooked a brown water snake.... he stayed clamped to the frog almost back to the boat... shook off but the frog had a big bite out of it....
