Quick take
A 5.5 inch soft hollow-body frog with sealed nose and internal rattle for weedless topwater fishing over heavy cover.
The KVD Baby Sexy Frog is a hollow-body topwater frog from Strike King, shown here in the Sexy Bluegill color. It runs about 5.5 inches and 1/2 ounce, with a rattle inside and a weedless build for working through cover. A collapsible body and double hook suit anglers who want a walking frog for pads, mats and open water.
Best for
- Topwater frog action over lily pads, hyacinths and surface weeds
- Flipping and pitching into dense cover where bass hide
- Making commotion to trigger strikes from lunker bass
Skip if
- You fish open water where frog profile is not effective
- You need a lure that swims at depth rather than on the surface
Strengths
- Collapsible hollow body compresses on hookset for better penetration
- Sealed nose minimizes water entry that can impede floating
- Free-floating rattle creates noise to attract fish from distance
Trade-offs
- Weedless design and large profile make the frog difficult to cast on light line
- Soft body can tear if punctured by sharp cover or teeth
- Hollow body design makes the lure buoyant; sinks slowly if retrieved stopped

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.
