Actually i can say they walk better when you cut them like that and hes right they will sometimes js try to drag the frog under by the "legs" i cut em a little bit longer than his now when i get a bite damn near guaranteed a fish

I did this all this week I used frog out the box then I used one a cut and I caught more on the one I cut hook set a lot better . If the skirt is to long you will miss bites because bass tend to go for the skirt first thinking it’s the frogs legs

@@allenfistbotm3336 I know right. Do you know how bass jigs have those bristle brushes over the hook to keep it weedless?

I would Never Ever cut a frogs legs. Adjust your hook set. The frogs legs is how you get the finicky big girls to bite when dead sticking it. Bass are opportunistic rip it all you want you’ll catch them. But your eliminating a key natural trait in the lure itself. To each their own. Happy Fishing 🎣

[@TUFFBASS]

Agreed but most frogs legs from the factory are way too long.

[@bama_garden_grow93]

May get more hook ups but probably less bites. I'd rather take my chances

[@gavanchildress7337]

I like leaving them a little longer, it makes it a lot easier to walk the frog in place almost. Plus there so limber that the bass isn’t gonna have a problem swallowing the whole thing

This is what NOT to do… when you want to catch more bass. Just get a smaller frog, always carry a normal size and a junior.

Definitely should be doing this to your frogs, the smaller frogs still have too long of legs. 🦵

@@TUFFBASS No I don’t think so. The legs give it action, no need to trim. Having a jr size frog can help with setting the hook more accurately. Not every bass can fit a whole pad crasher in its gullet.

[@nathanbrady8529]

Frogs are a great way to find fish, but a bad way to catch fish.
Most fish lost by a frog is because the fish is slapping at it trying to stun it rather than eat it. Have a 2nd rod ready to go with a jig or Texas rig (or anything that's going to sink. When you get that blow-up, get that 2nd rod out as quick as you can. The fish will circle around and see it's stunned prey falling. That's when they'll eat it.
