Quick take
A realistic hollow-body topwater frog with weedless hooks for surface fishing bass and pike.
The Lunker Frog is a hollow-body topwater frog with legs that stretch out on the retrieve and fold back on the pause. It weighs about half an ounce, and its buried hook points let it slide through weeds and heavy cover without hanging up. This Bull Frog color has a natural look for working matted vegetation, aimed at bass, trout and pike.
Best for
- Bass fishing over lily pads and shallow weed
- Pike in weedy bays and shallow cover
- Topwater anglers seeking explosive strikes
Skip if
- You fish open water where frog presentations are ineffective
- You prefer smaller profiles for panfish
Strengths
- Hollow body is soft and creates realistic frog profile
- Weedless hook design walks through vegetation without snag
- 45-degree pause angle positions the lure for solid hook sets
Trade-offs
- Hollow body deforms and tears with repeated strikes
- Weedless design has limited hook-up rate on subtle takes
- Requires finesse retrieve; fast cranking reduces effectiveness
