Thread: Frog patterns for Barra

    Re: Frog patterns for Barra

    Found these frogs at a garage sale today, picked 'em up for $2 . They're a bit smaller than I would have liked, the body is 4cm, but when the legs extend they're a reasonable length. Off to Monduran on Thurs for a flash daytrip, so will have to get some suitable wormhooks. Interested in seeing the reports from the M&G filter in. Weather looks like being fairly stable for the rest of the week, I'm frothing!!!

    After seeing the latest Fishing DVD ..... I had to drag this thread out of the dungeon ....... Sorry .... Its not quite what I had in mind

    So in light of what many have just seen ........ Are we going to be adding this technique to our armoury ??

    My Horny toads arrive shortly & I already have my TT weighted 6/O worm hooks

    Nagg

    PS ...... I still think my Spro ( AWD) frog has its place ........ I think Matt (Barraboss) will have a chuckle about this little creature ....... As you can cast it virtually anywhere...... & bring it back to the boat

    Chris,

    That AWD frog was a true break from the duldrums of not doing oh so well on your visit. I was honestly shocked to see the follower you had from the tree stump after watching you pull that frog through grass, over logs, lillypads and heavy weed , and of course, trees but unfotunately not out of a barra's mouth. Maybe summer time hey????

    Stilll gives me a chuckle......

    Cheers
    Matt

    It was a funny little bugger hey Attachment 28451( reminds me of that Duracel battery bunny) ..... With the high water levels & all that salad , I thought it was worth throwing ....... a break from convention so to speak........ but I thought that big tailing girl on the last morning might have smashed it ... Oh well
    I certainly can think of some situations where I wished I had either the Toads or my AWD frog ......... We had a situation at Faust on my 2nd visit (Oct 04) ..... We were in a boat that had no leccy & were drifting over the large weed beds that existed on the Western shore ......... We had big barra everywhere .... & dozens of them moving through lane ways that they created ...... very exciting stuff for about 1 hour ............ we only had some shallow runners ( pre slick rig days) .... & managed only a couple of sooties
    I cant wait till we find ourselves in that situation again ..... Faust or Awoonga , I certainly wont be scratching my head with what to do

    Cheers
