Fishing Hollow-Body Frogs vs Soft Plastic Frogs
When fishing dense mats of vegetation, or in vast expanses of lily pads, you’ll want to use a hollow-bodied frog to properly target the bass hiding underneath these canopies. These baits are nearly impossible to snag and bass will be looking to feed upwards when buried in these mats. Also many of these areas you’ll be fishing will have dense vegetation, so you’ll need a frog that has a large profile as this will displace the matted vegetation as you work it across the top of it.

Fishing the Spring to Summer Transition
As bass have completed their spawn, some will continue to live up shallow all year long. These bass will take up residence around hard cover, such as boat docks, laydowns or riprap. The bass relate to this shallow cover as their home; they live around it as it provides protection from predators and a good location to use as a food source. This hard cover will also more than likely have a consistent presence all year long.
