Cleve Worthington with a new "personal best" bass of 6 lbs. caught on his new team member "Master Yoda", 

His sons Zack & Jed continue to pound away on smallmouths, largemouth, pike & bowfin with team members "Demon"

Check out all their past & new adventures in the FROGmen Fishing Reports.

First time out with his Designer Bass FROG: Clone Series, AJ Regner nailed this 7 lb. 6 oz fat bass with the heat index hitting 112 degrees. Fortunately, the water he was fishing was spring fed and the bass were very hungry. It was a creek with a beaver dam, no lilly pads, and some surface moss with open pockets. In only 3 hours over several nights in a row, he fished a Clone Series FROG that he was given to him by Top FROGman, Chad Hoover, to field test from some of our precious samples left over from the ICAST Show. He gave one to the right guy ! He caught 8 fat bass over those two evenings in a total of 3 hours fishing.

First time out with his Designer Bass FROGs, John Klose of California caught these two beauties while vacationing in Texas. That would make it a little tough going back to work on Monday.

Both Bass caught by John Klose in Texas

Wow ! I just heard from John just after posting his pictures. He wanted to order more FROGs, because he left his FROGs with his buddies in Texas ! What a guy !

Hey guys the FROGs made their "splash" at the ICAST 2010 Show in Las Vegas.FROGman Chad Hoover from KayakBassFishing.com took them to the Show to "show them off". Bassmaster ran a live broadcast of Chad's demonstration of the FROGs on their website.Check it out:

Also, I am currently writing a 4 part series on theFROGs and how to fish them for Bassmaster.com Also, they will be featured in the print version of Bassmaster Magazine in the September issue, starring in the lead photo for an article on frog fishing. Also, if you have never watched "Day on the Lake" live fishing broadcasts on their website, you are really missing out. I watched Terry Scroggins fishing "live" on Orange Lake in central Florida. It was just like being there while I was at home working. In the first 10 minutes, he caught a 10 pounder !  I'm hooked !

Francois Malan is our FROGman in South Africa, and he had a great season with the FROGs. I have been so busy bringing the Clone Series to market and of course--- trying to catch up making FROGs --- that I did not get his photos and stories published on time. And his Fishing Reports are some of the best on this website. Unfortunately, their seasons are opposite ours, and he is most assuredly suffering from "cabin fever" right now as we always do when its too cold out to go Froggin for bass. Check out his Reports and his adventures with his FROGdawg "Luke", and his Top FROG  a Signature Series --- "Sir-Lands-aLot" as they continue their adventures with FROGs, monster bass & crocodiles !  If you are a Big Bass --- you don't want these guys hunting you down !

Keary Mattison, our FROGman in New York continues to slam the bigger bass on the FROGs. He just topped his Personal Best Largemouth Bass that he caught on his FROG last year. Last year he caught a 5 lb. 11 oz largemouth, and now he's topped that with a 6.97 lb largemouth. He has also now caught a 5.25 lb smallmouth on the FROGs. Wow ! Who would not like to do that ! He will be sending a photo of the smallmouth soon. If that's not enough, he also landed a 14 lb Pike. Can you just imagine the kind of strike on the FROG that must have been ! Check out Keary's FROG Fishing Reports on the FROGmen Page.

Forget all the apologies I make in this video. It was not me that screwed up ! It was the camera ! After inspecting the files, I have determined that either the camera or the memory card dropped a file or turned the camera off. Very unfortunate timing & bad luck---- but not my fault ! Anyway, check out one of my biggest bass ever --- and caught on the affordable Clone Series #4 Brown Bull FROG.

This is not just any FROG. This is a "very special" FROG. This is a registered Signature Series FROG #24. She is a southern "belle" Leopard FROG, a one-of-a-kind Original. But more than that --- she is the star of the legendary adventures of Ole Swamp Fart & Lillyfudder. There have been two episodes of this continuing saga published to date. A third, is due to be broadcast soon.

Lillyfudder, the star of Ole SwampFart & Lilyfudder, will be the first FROG inducted into the Designer Bass FROG Hall of Fame

Ole SwampFart, the legend, has died. At least, we think so. He has "disappeared" in the Swamp. That's why we can now tell his legendary adventures with Lillyfudder.  She loves to talk --- all the time !   She also wears her heart on her tympanic membrane(frog ear drum), and she might even give a kiss with those big, red, puckered lips. Don't let her pretty looks fool you ! She's a KILLER !

We have been getting incredibly hot weather with temperatures regularly hitting 97 degrees & higher in some areas and heat indexes hitting105, but if you can catch a rainstorm or cloudy weather between rainstorms, you can still have some exciting action on the FROGs. In the last few weeks. I have caught a couple big ones and missed a couple big ones. One of them whipped my butt real good and got himself on camera doing it, just before he got away next to the kayak. Video to follow soon. The bass below was also a beautiful video, crashing through the pads to gobble up that light golden southern leopard with the rain pouring down. It was so hot that I didn't bother with the rain gear ! If you go out on the water in the rainy weather --- plan for a hasty exit strategy, especially if there is any chance of lightening. Play it safe !

Caught by CaptKen with air & water temps in the '90's on 6/16/2010 in the pouring rain.

We'll post some big bass photos from earlier in the season & more videos as soon as we can.

We are sill waiting on the Clone Series of Designer Bass FROGs. But, we are expecting them within the next week or two. We have been waiting for the manufacturer to provide a stronger hook that compares to the custom hooks that come with the Original & Replicant Series of handmade FROGs. I know you are going to need the strong hook. In the meantime, I finally got one of the videos completed from earlier in the season. It demonstrates the effectiveness of "Finesse FROG Fishing" and stealth in extremely shallow, calm water. You don't want to try this from a bass boat or with your buddy paddling and casting next to you.

Many more exciting videos to come when we get a chance to edit them.

The heat of summer has finally ended, and the fish are really responding, especially in the rivers like the St. John's and Lake George (2nd biggest lake in Florida) connected to the River. The vegetation is also back in good condition, and the bass are grabbing FROGs fished fast across the top of any matted type of plant material. It should be great fishing on the warm fronts until the real cold weather gets here after Christmas. This is a chance to catch lots of qualiity fish on topwater FROGs, and maybe even a trophy.

Our congratulations go out to one of our top FROGmen who is now on the Pro Staff at Malibu Kayaks www.malibukayaks.com   Chris is also now on the Pro Staff at Kayak Bass Fishing.com

All I can say is - - - we spotted him first ! He's been murdering big bass on our FROGs in Maryland since we started offering them for sale. Chris is also a guide. So, you too can benefit from from his knowledge and experience at both FROG fishing and kayak fishing. If I were you, I would book early for next season. Find out why we are all addicted to catching big bass by kayak with a FROG.

His email address is----  Chris Burke <cburke602@gmail.com

Chris Burke nails another big one on the FROG. On the Full Moon he also caught over 40 bass on the FROG. They were still hitting after dark in the moon light. Since he didn't have any bug spray, the mosquitoes finally drove him off the water. Check out some other photos and his own description on his FROGmen Page.  He also caught a 28.5 inch Chain Pickerel.
