Hollow body frogs are topwater lures designed to mimic frogs, mice, or other critters skimming across vegetation. Their soft, collapsible bodies and upward-facing double hooks make them ideal for fishing in thick cover where other lures would snag.
Anatomy of a Hollow Frog
- Soft rubber body: Collapses on strike to expose the hooks
- Double upturned hooks: Reduce snags and improve hooksets
- Skirted legs: Pulse and flutter to mimic swimming motion
- Sealed belly: Keeps the bait buoyant and weedless
Why Anglers Love Them
- Weedless design: Perfect for fishing over lily pads, hydrilla, and reeds
- Explosive strikes: Bass often hit frogs with dramatic surface attacks
- Versatile action: Can be walked, popped, or buzzed depending on style
