Quick take
A weighted topwater frog lure that lands on its belly, created to skip under overhanging cover and attract bass in weed beds.
The Bronzeye Frog 65 in Night Walker is a hollow-body topwater frog about 2.5 inches long and 5/8 oz. Its body wraps around a Gamakatsu double frog hook, which suits casts into lily pads, mats and other heavy cover. Anglers chasing bass around vegetation will find it a familiar frog shape.
Best for
- Largemouth bass in dense weed and lily pad beds
- Casting under tree branches and docks
- Summer and early fall when vegetation is thick
Skip if
- You fish open water; frogs are ineffective without cover
- You want to cast far; the 5/8 oz weight is moderate
Strengths
- Weighted design lands on belly and pops without rolling
- Single hook reduces snags in vegetation
- Casts long distances for a topwater lure
Trade-offs
- Effective only over dense cover; useless on open banks
- Requires aggressive jerking to work properly; lazy retrieves draw no strikes
- Gamakatsu hook is sharp but small; misses are common

About this type
A lure is an artificial bait that draws a strike with its shape, color and movement.
Each kind is built for certain depths and ways of fishing.
Weight decides how far a lure casts and what rod and line it needs; color changes how visible it is in the water.
