  • This was topwater frog fishing paradise in some tiny little natural lakes in Michigan. Crazy action and so many hits on the ‪@BooyahBaits‬ pad crasher jr. Fish after fish once i figured it out. No big ones but tons of little guys were willing to hit.

    We have a thing in Michigan that we call “up north” - there’s basically a line that runs across the state east to west that goes roughly through the city of Clare.
    If you’re south of that it’s mostly water like you’re fishing and warmer-water rivers and streams. There are of course outlier trout streams to be found, but it’s generally true. Mucky or clay bottoms in the lakes generally…. Mostly going to be panfish, bass, and pike in the lakes, unless they stock walleye in them…the rivers will mostly be smallmouth, pike, walleye, carp, and catfish.
    If you’re north of the line, then you’ll find more rocky bottom waters and cooler-water rivers and streams. You’ll find more lakes with trout in them as you go north. Still going to be largemouth in the lakes, but the smallmouth start to dominate as the lakes get deeper and cooler. Of course you’ll have panfish, pike, and whatnot as well…

    You're an entertainer and a fisherman all in one video, and that makes for outstanding content that you can not take your eyes off of.

    The hardest part of frog fishing is allowing the fish to swim off before you set the hook. They’ll hold it like a worm- have confidence to let them eat it and you’ll hook up a little more. It takes nerves of steel!

    • @CatchReleaseRepeat
      @CatchReleaseRepeat Před rokem

      So true! I always miss the first hookset when I go frogging. He was working it pretty quick too. In my experience that leads to more misses. All my best bites usually come when I let the frog sit a while between pops.
      It's fun to watch him discover the joy of frog fishing. Now I want to see him make a trip to fish with NDyakangler!

    The green floating cover that looks like a green mat is duckweed.
    Super common up north. I'm in the Ottawa area up in Ontario, Canada, and we have tons of it. The water where you're at looks a lot like rivers and lakes around here.
    Quick question about your Old Town. What length is the blue one and also the orange/yellow one that you use? I'm considering switching from my canoe to a kayak and have been shopping around a bit but don't know if I want a 126 or a 106. Edit: LOL! Should have waited until the end to ask about the kayak. I thought the blue one you're using is the 106. I'm guessing the orange one is a 126.
