Keeping the hooks tight against the body is what lets it be worked through weed, grass and lily pads without collecting salad on every cast, while the skirt adds movement and vibration on the pause. At 8g in a 4.5cm body it carries more mass per centimetre than the resin jump frogs in the range, so it casts hard into wind, sits a little deeper in the surface film and pushes more water on a steady wind. Unlike a pure jump frog it works on three retrieves — twitching, jumping and straight retrieval — which makes it a practical single choice for anglers covering ponds, lakes, rivers and canals in one session.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHard-body topwater frog, 4.5cm and 8g\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact frog-shaped design for surface work\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDouble-hook layout positioned close to the lure body\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlexible silicone skirt for extra movement and vibration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBright, detailed colour patterns for visibility on the water\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWorks on twitching, jumping and steady retrieval\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEffective around weeds, grass, lily pads and shallow cover\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuits ponds, lakes, rivers and canals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow To Fish It\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSteady retrieval over cover\u003c\/strong\u003e — Wind at a constant medium speed so the body pushes a wake and the skirt streams behind it.
