Matt Allen of http://www.tacticalbassin.com explains how to catch more bass by walking a frog instead of popping or hopping it.
Many bass fisherman simply pull a hollow body frog across slop or pads. This method of frog fishing can be effective but if you want to get explosive topwater bites, those vicious slow motion topwater strikes that will replay in your mind over and over again, you need to learn to walk a frog in open water.
This is a “how to bass fishing video” but if you stick around to the end you’re going to see some awesome topwater catches on the California Delta and Clear Lake with the frog.
Matt and Tim have both seen amazing results open water frogging and hope that you’ll put these tips and tricks to work for you so you can experience some of the best bass fishing on earth!

Thanks for the tips man! I'm at the pond right now he decided to use the frog for the first time because there's too much Moss to use a worm.
I kept telling myself…. I know the voice, I know that name, but I’ve never seen the man’s face because he’s always running that big old beard. Thanks for all the help 👍
Pirates Lair Marina ?
I can walk a spook like butter. But he explain twitched lighter. Can’t wait to try
Thankyou so much I watch all these videos that are 20 mins long I love how you just go straight to the point.
Thanks got to learn how to do this…
You can tell a Amateur, they toss the bass instead of placing the bass back slowly. LMMFAO
When doing this are you barely moving your rod tip pointing to the water? How is the frog moving?
What pound test line do you use frog fishing
Why are you guys wearing a mask outside?
I don't like how you put your fish back
Yall were killin it
3:16 Tim dodges that hook set perfectly haha
Haha Tim's got the same head duck now from 6 years ago. Y'all rock 💪
I rlly need help on how to walk a frog on a spinning reel I never knew how
Well, I can finally do it!!!!! Not as good as y'all yet, but halfway there. Got it down on my booyah frog first, now my bully wa 2 is walking. Thank you so much guys. I'll send pics if I catch one on it!!!!!
Can you walk the frog in a belly boat scenario? I fish mostly clear strip mine pits here in Illinois and the belly boat suits me best. I have a short rod that I plan to try. Your thoughts? Your videos RULE!!
How about treating the fish with a lot more respect when you release them instead of flopping or throwing them back with no care for the fish
Loved the bully wa, but it didn’t last that long.
Please, i still cant walk my regular spro frog am i doing it wrong or is walking a spro frog hard?
I’m a female paralyzed veteran and I’m been trying so hard to do this technique but I’m obviously sitting. Any advice? I’m also using my pontoon so I’m sitting and up high from the water, Any feedback would b useful
-thanks
I slammed the south jersey bass last week with hollow body frogs I went Saturday morning and evening till 9:30 and this morning and only had a couple hits and one hook up which I think I ripped it's lip ripping through the Lilly pads (thick) hope it's not falling off that fast
You make that look so easy lol, great tempo, excellent technique.
I’ve noticed not all pros use that method with the frog, if you watch Mr. Roland Martin he jerks and let’s it sit idle for a sec; which method lands more strikes?
I’m definitely going to practice this technique, looks awesome!
I cannot get my frogs to walk but three or 4 times then I mess up, I also use a short rod and hit the water with my tip every time because I don’t have a boat
That reaction time by the guy on the right at 3:16 is phenomenal lol
Do not just throw the fish like that please.
Their in shock at that moment.
Should i really be trolling that fast ?
Man ya'll make it look so easy..I've been trying top water frogs for a while and haven't had any luck.. guess I need a fish finder too
Thanks for the tips!!! Now time to practice.
You should do a all about delta river fishing
Could this work with a spinning reel, or just a bait caster?
Savage gear 3d frog walks like no other. It does it when I'm not even trying to, rod up or down give it a light tap a few times and its walking all over…love it. My new favorite frogs
So on those hook sets at the end I noticed you guys are setting the hook almost immediately after the blow up. I have been told before to wait a couple seconds after the blow up to set the hook. What is your take on this?
Nice video….is there a frog that walks easier than other brands without modification?
To the point. Thanks, great vid. 👍
I have had so much trouble mastering this. I just picked up on what you said about keeping some slacks you dont pull it strait that has to be my problem!!! We will find out tomorrow. Thank you again!!!
I cant perfect this!!!
Eh not sure how this is gonna work fishing on the bank, maybe need a short pole for that. I'm sure on a boat a 7 foot rod will work like that.
Excellent video, I really appreciate the information, subscribed.
