Anyone get a cringey "scum frog" count? I was super impressed by them I'm sure a ton of you out there just smash em on it! Had an EPIC Musky hunt yesterday can't wait to share it with you all 👊🏻
Chris Bulaw what's up I love it if you would reply
FlipnnOutdoors como estas¿
Chris Bulaw thanks means a lot that you notice us and love your vids I also caught a 6 lber on a scum frog
send your old shimano reels back to shimano they give u new ones for a very discounted price keep u the good work
Brayden Kahler or just send them to me, I'll send back some Gatorade or something
I've fished scumfrogs for 25 years. Never disappointed. Plus tons of pike where I fish and have lost frogs on their first cast. Which really sucks with a $10 bait
I love Scum frogs! I won't waste my money on pretty/realistic $10+ frogs. They are just fisherman catchers rather than fish catchers.
Scum frog is the original frog lure. Made in my hometown of Columbus, Mississippi. Really durable, lightweight bc made to go across Lilly pads, grass and "scum".
I'm still trying to get my first frog catch! These videos make it look so easy...
Fat Robs Fishing same
Fat Robs Fishing it isn't that hard I've caught around a 50 this year
Guaranteed way of getting a frog or any top water fish is to go out around either dusk, or more specifically overcast days or before a storm hits. Fish weeds, but focus on the edges and pockets in matts. Pause before and after the pocket. You'll get alot of blow ups around those areas. Remember to wait to set the hook too.
Almost critical to to have braid and a stiff rod to frog fish.
Your not alone, I lost a lab rat scum frog in a tree this morning. Made me have a good laughing fit, but for $3 at swellmart, way better than losing a spro and not laughng.
I use them exclusively not because of the price but the hookup ratio is excellent and super durable, super sharp hooks set at the correct angle combined with a super soft body they are killer ...I have one that pulled in around 40 bass and still doesn’t have any marks on it , only thing is to trim the legs 1/4-1/2” to prevent short strikes .
What lake are you fishing in the video?
whats the name of that frog again? i thought you mentioned it once in the vid.. just couldnt find that part again.
He literally mentions it every few minutes or so.....
Brody yeah it's a joke
Brody That's the joke...
That's a dream lake in my opinion. We don't have many of those here in Canada! Keep up the good work Chris, you're most definitely my favorite fishing youtuber out there. Calm yet entertaining with awesome video content.
Man what an awesome day. Good weather. Good boat. Good wind. What else can you ask for. Pulling up tons of swimmers.
As much as I love Jon and Lunkers, every time I see one of your vids I click on it first. Love the video! Keep up the good work!
What lake are you fishing on? Looks like a lot of fun. Like to try it out myself.
I've got a $3 frog that I bought at academy and I've caught 100+ bass on it and it still works all the paint is gone though
I've used a handful of frogs, and keep coming back to Scum Frogs because of the hookup percentage. I like the Teckels (with the metal blades) for a change of pace, but Scum frogs get more strikes and have the best hookup ratio.
How are you liking the Tatula? Curious to see how they compare to the new curado
Dang Chris seems like you had a great day out with the old fishing coach. By any chance do you remember what you were casting out that day? Can't seem to find it in the video. Thanks.
love these types of videos
Brett LeBlanc Yes!
What do you think of that new diawa tatula reel? I've had the 8:1 since right after they came out and I love it I will probably never buy anything but diawa from now on
Is the camera mirrored or are you using lefty reel? It's advantageous for righties to run left handed reels
I used Scum frogs a ton last year and they work pretty well. Definitely not nearly as durable as SPRO or Booyah frogs because they tend to rip at the nose area and the whole frog slides down the shank of the hook. They do without a doubt catch fish though!
Harrison Hoge Super Frog was my all-time favorite. The new version made by Panther Martin is called the Superior Frog. Solid body casts like a bullet, good for long flipping. Amazingly weedless despite the way it looks. Single hook pointing down. The older version of the Scum Frog used to fill with water and tear easily. I haven't tried the newer ones yet, but after watching this I may give it a try.
What flipping bait were you using? Great video as well. I caught my first hollow body frog bass on Sunday.
What lake is this?? I'm from central Illinois and am always down for new in state water.
Hey when you fish that beaver do you break the big legs in the middle? separate them from each other, that is what I mean by break.
What's your fav spro I have like 8-10 but I need one for a light weed and some green top layer that are mixed
Fantastic..... Lure of choice in pads and weeds, Scum Frog. Have great success with this frog! Just one question, what lake is this in central Illinois.
Scum frogs are the only 1s we use up here in northern wisconsin..only problem is that there are musky in almost every body of water up here and they do a number on the frogs..those paddle tail 1s that you were talking about are very productive up here, until a musky or northern amputates the legs lol
Scum frogs are a Must have up here in Northern Illinois. Makes for an exciting day of fishing.
Chris is my new favorite fishing youtuber good to see hes finally getting the support he deserves. A1 vids bro keep it up.
You should try the Booyah Pad Crasher I have awesome luck with those! Any of you other guys try them out before?
Caught my PB on a brown pad crasher. Love them. I trim the legs a little though they come pretty long out of the box
The big foot is great when the water is just warming up. I like it better in spotty cover where those legs can kick in between the mats. Good video I like seeing the cheaper products out perform more expensive
"Cheap" is non existant in the Fishing industry
NickHanegraaf Vlogs what about the 6 pack of frogs i bought for 5.67 or the 5 piece lipless crank baits i bought for 5.99 or even the 5 piece micro crankbaits i bought for 4.99 on amazon
The comment clearly went over your head on that one lol
The Fish Guy I think he's talking about quality fishing products
You can buy $1.00 to $1.50 frogs or crank baits from China with free E-packet shipping. It may take 6 months to get there and not be worth fishing but its cheap
He says that cause most fishing products are expensive
If I had a sponsor it would be Scumfrog.
Need to compare like baits. Scum frog is black and the Spro is natural (brown body, green head). I have one Spro and tons of Booyah frogs. I think the Spro produces very well.
Guess I’ll have to get me a few Scum Frogs I have every other frog they’ve made probably lol.
i use Sum Frogs..LOVE THEM.. i have like two or three livetargets and spro frogs that are just laying round because i got them MTB's but ive never used them. take that back i used a livetarget once and it broke in like the third fish.
Scum Frogs have always been my main squeeze. A dab of garlic oil on the back above the hook points will add scent and help keep it from snagging the rubber. The glow in the dark one actually works well on stained water.
Hey Chris have you ever went fishing around Quincy Illinois. If you have cold you tell me ere you've caught the fish
What Daiwa reel where you using? I'm looking at Daiwa reels for frogging.
"More affordable frog" or "better value frog" is more like it lol
Hey Chris what's your reel arsenal and you should come down to Florida and catch your PB
I use scum frogs when I fish and I bind the hooks up so It don't hook it's self but they are very durable I've caught about 100 bass on one scum from but I prefer there poppin frogs
I did that because I was having hookup ratios. They weren't inhaling it and I figured that nearly 90 degree bend, sitting so tight to the body wasn't allowing me to dig into the short strikers. Increased my hookup ratio, but I prefer other frogs, just trim the skirts a lil usually.
Hey Chris Bulaw I heard you say this was in illinois ... what part of illinois was this in
I love using their popping frogs but I have been using more of the booyah frogs just love those as well. Plus I bought a live target popping frog and it keeps taking on water so I probably won't use live target again.
nice! love this!!! I look forward to seeing your next adventure
So close to 100k!! Keep grinding bro!
My 2 favorite frogs to throw are the scum frog bigfoot and the snag proof moss master tournament frog, both have very high hook up ratios and get both big fish and numbers.
Hey Chris. What lake is this? I live too close not to check it out
Try those matzuo frogs , they don't last long and look cheap but I've had really good luck on them
I have that same frog you were using and I've never caught a fish on it.. Nice video!
love the scum frog. I've only had them fail when the bowfin put holes in them and they begin to take in water and sink. Great video. Dropping a like on this one.
its a premium bait with a affordable price. So glad to see this video confirm what ive been telling others for years
What lake is this?
What setting on the brakes do you set it at for frog fishing??
The scum frog is probably my favorite. Cheaper and very durable! It also pops pretty well, too.
Im very new to fishing, but why did They Throw those big Bass back?
Chris bulaw what size rod were you using in the vid
That's a good spot for frogging and some early season crappies
I regularly use a scum frog. I used to use the KVD SEXY frog but the link up percentage just wasn't there for me.
great video bro. You going to be back in Illinois before the weekend?
Idk if it's cuz I'm baked or what but this was the dopest fishing video from this bro in the last couple weeks...🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🎣🎣🎣🎣
Man. What a day! Great vid.
do you ever let people know which lake you are on? I live in the NW burbs of Chicago.
I really like the scum frogs and use some in our videos. You sacrifice some durability but the softer body helps get more hookups I find
That looks fun, what a cool looking lake! (Lee)
As someone who fishes all around chicago, i can confirm the Scum Frogs can be money. I have a box full of all different brands of frogs, and when you don't need the heavier weight to make more noise in a thick mat, they are amazing. As a side note, with the normal Scum Frogs, if you want to add just a little more weight, you can put a glass rattle or two, maybe even a small split shot in through that hole in the bottom, and it adds some weight and makes a little more noise. PS: you have me jealous, i need to know what lake that is. ~Wadlo
Cabelas stores are horrible. They never have what you need in stock. Then they tell you "we can order that for you." No wonder they're being bought by bass pro.
Awesome video again brother, love that Channel and always appreciate the tutorials sir 😎👍🏻🎣🤙👏
Hey what was that model drone you were using ? 😅
Not a fan of the almost 90 degree bend they have in them. They work, they hold up well, I just always had hook up issues with them, and before anyone goes saying you gotta wait to set the hook, I know.... I fish spooks a ton and am very proficient at hooking up on topwater. Just a preference.
Tikimohn you're just trash
Nah, don't fish it so fast. I work em slow alsmost like a popper and I don't set the hook hard at all and don't seem to ever have any hookup issues
Great video, I use both the frogs and same color.
Needs to Amazon links to the frogs man, that's where your money is gonna be made ...
I have always used booyah Padcrashers. Cheap and work the best in my honest opinion.
I just came into a few of these. I like em too
I have a reel that has 14 ponds of drag what pond braid line can I put on it
i use lunkerhunt frogs only decent ones i can find here in nova Scotia, smallmouth bass love em here
I've been big on the Booyah Pad Crasher. Used a Savage Gear and the Poppin Wa (lost both of those yesterday) and haven't gotten a bite on the savage gear and the hook up ratio on the poppin wa was just north of trash. Go figure the one I like the best is the cheapest! Still about $5 though.
Do a comparison of all different cheap lures like this
I’ve used Scum Frogs for years . The high dollar frogs have never out fished one yet . They just look pretty to part fishermen from their money. Scum frogs are inexpensive but they are not cheap.
I have used them and they work great
What pound braid do you use on ur pinching set up?
Chris Bulaw what is ur pb awnser plzzzz with soft plastics on top!?!!?!
Jered Cizek boy it's title of one of his videos go look for yourself
Great video I love them scum frogs I get mine at fleet farm for under $ 5 bucks and they have never let me down.
Name of lake ?
Picked up a spro frog today. Haven’t thrown it yet. Eager to.
Hey Chris what fluorocarbon do you use for jigs
Bass smasher 224 I stick with 15-17 pound seaguar, heavy flouro and myself don't get along
Chris Bulaw thanks and great video.
You should do a series with cheap lures/baits vs high end lures
So many other UA-camrs do that.
Yeah I know but what about the cheap lures from asia. They have topwaters, cranks, plastics etc. Seen them on ebay for nearly nothing. It would be cool to see something like that.
Were you using a quantum pulse
My next frog purchase will be a scum frog for sure. Sick video.
bro I wish u made this video around a month and a half ago, amazing video tsm
Hey Chris I'm a new sub I've seen you with Peric and Jon B. on there channels and your channel is Awesome I really like your content. Ill defiantly be here for the long haul keep up the awesome vids bud
Gave up on Spro this year and switched to $5 frog I found at dicks. Love Spro's but after losing a couple early this summer I started looking for a cheaper alternative. Pleasantly surprised and it might be a while before purchasing a new Spro.
That big whole you can put rattle and weights after marker if you’d like
I have trouble getting hooksets with the scum frog for some reason...most times they just plain out miss it though I think..
walt birchmeier try trimming the legs or taking pliers and barely widen the hooks
They probably have cheap hooks and not very sharp
That is an awesome idea and vid
Are they the same color
Back in the day your only option was a Snagproof frog. Cut the legs off, fill the body with pieces of worm for extra weight and add some worm rattles and divide a spinnerbait skirt into two legs and thread it in one leg hole and out the other. They all work. Still like the ole modified Snagproof the best though.
Favorite UA-camr
Great video keep up the good work!
What rod is he using
What’s that drone called the jj pro ?
