Lunkerhunt frog review...

Lunkerhunt Lunker frog














I have to start out by saying that I love these frogs.  They are the most realistic frogs that I have fished and produce some very nice size bass.   
I have rarely had one hang up on me as they are relatively weedless and  are extremely easy to fish, even in the harshest conditions.  
The swim action on these lures is absolutely incredible.  They are fished in a pattern of retrieve, pause, retrieve, pause and the legs really do make the lure look as if it is swimming across the surface of the water.


Rating:  9 out of 10

Quality
The quality of these lures is top notch.  The paint job is truly life like.   The soft body construction definitely helps with the hook up as it folds back onto itself to expose the dual hooks.  The only issue I had was that the plug on the bottom of the lure came out (although I was able to pop it back  in) and now the lure has to be drained after every other cast.  Mind you this is after a huge alligator gar got a hold of it.



Lunkerhunt offers 3 different styles of  soft body frogs:


This is the largest frog that Lunkerhunt offers.  It measures 2.5 inches and weighs in at 3/4 oz and comes in some really cool colors and patterns.  Even camo patterns, ie the name Combat Frog.  It has a tapered nose to help it pass through just about anything.  An enlarged air bladder helps keep the body floating high  in the water and the dual enlarged hooks increase your chances of hook ups.

                                                    
The second largest frog in the Lunkerhunt family is the Lunker Frog. It measures 2.25 inches, weighs 1/2 oz and is the most realistic frog in their lineup.  The Lunker frog is meant to mimic an adult sized frog and 
because of some really incredible engineering in the legs, it moves just like a living frog would on the water. The body of this frog dips down just a little in the water just as the rear of a frog or bullfrog would.  It also features the dual enlarged hook just as the Combat frog does.


This little guy mimics a juvenile frog.  It measures 1.75 inches and weighs just 1/4 oz.  With all of the same features as it's bigger brother, this is another awesome frog that should bring in a ton of bass of all sizes.



Always tied on


The bottom line on this frog is that every angler that wants to hook up with some serious bass should have one of each in his/her tackle box.
I was very impressed with this company and their products from the first time I pitched out my first Combat Frog (Jungle color, model CF01).  


Lunkerhunt frogs can be found just about anywhere tackle is sold.  I've even seen them at Walmart for $6.99 for the Lunker Frog which makes them very attainable on any budget.

So what are you waiting for.  Go out and pick up one of these cool frogs and start pulling in the big fish...
