I love the look of this bait and I purchased this a couple months ago and threw it one time and it takes on alot of water where the hook goes in the body is this a problem or did I just buy one that may be defected? i paid 10.00 bucks for it from Fishermans Warehouse Thanks Dom

Dom,
Try sealing around the hook hole with GE Silicone clear seal, or any other brand of clear silicone caulking. You need to force it into the hook hole with your finger, to make a plug inside the frog, and spread it around on the outside to try and get a good seal.
Then make a small slit in the top of the frog behind the eyes so the air can vent on the hookset.
This isn't a permanent, miracle cure, but it should hold up for a few fish, and then slow down the amount of water that does get in. I've had the hook pulled through the frog, and the plug come out along with the hook, and was able to push the hook and plug back into the frog and keep fishing.
And it's easy to reseal once you're off the lake. Once you make a good plug with the caulking, a little around the edges should reseal it for the next trip.
If it eventually takes on water, you can squeeze it out through the head slit. Just point it away from yourself, or you'll have wet pants.

Thanks Mark

But to be honest , for $10.00 bucks I would exspect the lure to work properly out of the package. Not knockin Paycheck baits I use there punchin stuff and the vixen (well there version) and they are first rate but this transporter seriously on one cast you have to sqeeze the water out and if you let it sit to long it fills w/ water and sinks. So I take it I dont have a defective one, they all do this?

I talked with a buddy that had picked up a couple of those frogs he said out of the 3 he bought 1 would sink on him and said he emailed paycheck and they got staight for him. with some of the blows ups on that video it might worth a $10 gamble
