Frogs and fighter jets 7/11

Post by Dannicus »

I went to Miramar for the first time in years this morning. I threw cranks, swimmers, Senkos, jerks, t-rigs, jigs and even a dropshot for a brief spell. The only bites I could get were popping a frog at the edge of the tulles.

Not that I am complaining! I love me some frog fishing, but I wish they'd have been a bit bigger. I stuck and landed 5 of them out of probably 11 blowups. My frog technique is rusty, and I kept setting too early haha.

Still, lots 'o fun.

I have been guilty of setting too early on the frog in the past too. They will hold those frogs like a soft plastic. Definitely pays to hold off on the hookset. Also if you find a spot in the reeds where you can cast back into them, that pays off too.

You are a fishing Machine! Keep it up=)

No eats on the frog, but all my fish came on topwater at Lower O yesterday. Busters everywhere in the area I was fishing and they were eating my little JDM topwater as soon as it hit the water.

We were there in the afternoon from about 4 on Saturday. Rangers never came around to chase us off so we fished till 8:30 and left cause we didn’t have light. But man… it was pretty nuts and so much fun.

Did the water clarity ever change or is it the same as it has been?
