Les Young Posted October 2, 2021 Report Share Posted October 2, 2021 I've been throwing the zoom horny toad some lately & see several different styles of soft plastic frogs. What's everybody's favorites so i can look for a mold? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alsworms Posted October 2, 2021 Report Share Posted October 2, 2021 Interested to see other's choices as well. I like the hollow body ones. Mainly the Booyah Pad Crasher or the Live Target hollow frog. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jig Man Posted October 2, 2021 Report Share Posted October 2, 2021 I can’t make my favorites cause they are Elaztech, being zeros and trds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
basskat Posted October 2, 2021 Report Share Posted October 2, 2021 I have two frog molds. One is an old Delmar. It's caught a ton of fish. The only drawback to it is it has a tendency to retrieve upside down, just like the Ribbits. The other is a Do-It Croaker. It has a keeled bottom and very rarely turns upside down. It's paddle feet are a little smaller than I'd prefer but it works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Les Young Posted October 3, 2021 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2021 I have a single cavity artificial stone version of the horny toad that i bought to try & like it, but i think i'd rather have something with paddle feet myself that will cause more of a disturbance on retrieve without much trouble turning over. i can pick up hollow bodies when i want to try them so that's not a problem.

basskat Posted October 3, 2021 Report Share Posted October 3, 2021 It is. Shoots and runs true. I do wish the feet were a little bigger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also wonder how the essential series frog is? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
basskat Posted October 4, 2021 Report Share Posted October 4, 2021 I will say with the keeled bottom the hook is turned up 99% of the time. Most frogs it's a 50/50 crap shoot on which way it's turned. It has good action but would stir up more of a commotion it the feet were a little bigger.
