Yes I have a box full of them! They work really good! I like the shad colored one. Put a red bead in front of it and go to work on the edge of the grass. Great bait.

You bet fish it just like you would a Buzzbait! Good thing is you can pause it and it sinks really slow then start buzzing again!

I like the "High floater" model the best, you can buzz it or just work it like your normal frog baits.

Ribbits Rock!!! If you are gonna fish them on or around grass, Conley's suggestion of using a bead in front is a must. I like just a plain ole white frog, not the high floater. I will buzz it over the grass and when i get to a hole, i will let it sink for a few seconds before buzzing it again. Alot of time you will get violent strikes when paused in a hole in the grass.

Jonnie, using the bead in front of the bait helps keep the grass from collecting on the front of the bait around the hook eye and knot. The baits come with a hook that is awsome to use on them. It is a large jig hook with a screw-lock on it that you screw the bait on. When you do this it exposes the knot and hook eye to the grass, the bead is you block for the grass. All I know is it works great!

That's a great little tip for keeping weeds off the nose of your lure...
