I love the lunkerhunt frog it's not a walking frog, I use it like a real frog. Pop it off the shore in between some pads. Twitch it to look like a frog extending it's legs to swim, pop onto another p ad and repeat until it's time to hang on from the massive explosive blow up. Don't use it like a walking frog. Use it to imitate a real frog. The way a real frog moves. You'd be surprised it works well. It's one of my favorite frogs.
People think all frogs without the popping mouth are walking frogs but that's not true 😂. Some are hopping frogs. You fish it like you're suppose to fish it. They are fish catchers and aren't any less durable than others imo lol
you're right it actually had a pretty cool swimming motion with the leg movements..I was surprised it didn't get touched in that pond
Yeah it's a fantastic lure. It's my go to if I ever frog fish. I will say though the legs are hit or miss. I've had them stay on after catching 50 bass, and I've had them fall off after one.
Regardless I love them
Thanks! Now I know how to fish it. Cool.
For sure my favorite frog, I do find it fills with water quickly but it’s also just as quick to squeeze the water out
love to see ya back, we dont even need challenges or random ideas, just go fish and will watch. keep it up man
From a fishing RUclipsr to a First Responder Hero, Lojo is the GOAT truly.
military too
That lunkerhunt finesse worm works great. Maybe ease up on setting the hook you don't need to try too pull the fish straight out of the water when hooking it
Then what's the point of having 700lb braid!?
The lizard with the spinner is designed to reel steady across the surface. My dad talked of reeling them across lily pads and letting it sink and crushing with it.
Y’all should do a budget fishing challenge where you have to catch your own live bait. Or a challenge where you have to scavenge for lures at your fishing spot and only use those.
Love this idea! At our local fishing holes people leave all kind of baits and lures, especially if you're willing to wade out into the trees a little.
Love how you dropped everything and ran to check on the guy
I'm just glad he was ok
2:36 bro what?? 💀
Shutout for not click baiting the car accident and also not showing too much. Keeping it respectful! 💪
🙏🏻 we were so glad he was ok!!
@@lojofishing Glad you got integrity, brother. Good on ya!
Lol Guy DEEEESSSTROOOYSSS SUV while we're hammering em at TROPHY BASS POND lololol I would of clicked either way, I mean it's LoJo. I dont even look at the titles anymore. LoJo, Ayo, smalls or Flair posts, I know I'm bout to be entertained. Idk how LoJo isnt in the couple million sub range yet? He will be. I feel a sub explosion coming ..
Happy 4th to yall ..Awesome video like always LOJO. Glad the man was OK .. Yall stay safe and Keep’em coming
I have noticed that if it’s lunkerhunt in not gonna use it../ when I was less experienced in fishing.. I thought.. wow those look awesome and they’d have to catch so many fish… I have since not even tried them. Non of my other lures even resemble what lunkerhunt does… I still have a dragonfly unopened (I still think that one will catch some fish but that one’s a different story lol )
Gosh never been this early. Love the pond work video. You and that dingy had me crying laughing. You guys are killing it. Be well from the otherside of the pond.
Never a dull moment in a fishing day with Lojo
Logo ! Your crew is awesome. Most people would walk by, y’all went running and called 911. Awesome !
I love these videos shows what products not too buy! I’m going to start looking at reviews way more often before I buy something.
I have the worm version of the double hook lizard thing. I put lizards on it sometimes. I've never had any issues with it. Caught lots of bass, sunfish, and crappie on it. It's one of my go-to in mid spring.
LOJO I’m a travel ICU Nurse from Arizona, working at one of the Baptist Hospitals in Montgomery. Where can I fish and not get yelled at. Also I’ll be at the Prattville store today. lol. Love the vids and keep it up my man!
It’s about an hour away from you but go check out Chewacala State Park near Auburn! One of my favorite weekend spots when I was a student. There’s a nice main lake and then the creek splits in two under the waterfall and I’ve fished down both paths for hours
I’m really glad the car crash wasn’t the main part of the video and was just included cause it happened while they were there. You earned a sub today for that alone.
Earlier today, I actually got some fishing gear a little fishing kit at my local Dollar General. They just got them in and I’m going to test them out and put those videos on TikTok and possibly RUclips.
Next time you’re at L&M do a vid like this Lojo!! Worst baits and combos in the USA and see it you can still catch a Trophy Bass!!👍💪👊
I second that Mike!! Would be a great video!
@@roberthern1111 💪
@@mikeledsome love you Mr Mike! Hope to someday make it out to your lil lake of giants!
yessir I'd like that very much!!
That’s right, put them to the real test with some hogs up there!
Thank god yall were there to help!
Thats some scary stuff to witness.
I love when my friends tell me “i just got a huge bite.” Then they get hit in the same spot for 15 casts and the hook bends out, definitely not a log
I actually don't use freshwater gear anymore. I use inshore tarpon, snook and Redfish gear for most of my freshwater needs. It's a one time investment that pays off a million times over again. 🔥🔥🔥✔️💯
I can't think of anything more soul sucking than fishing for stocked bass in a man-made pond.
putting a dc on a googan rod should be criminal
Pretty positive I know where this pond is I grew up going that way during the summer with the family as a kid. Cool to see you in my area!
Why do you not fill your spool on your baitcaster all the way? just wondering.
No need for it.
It won´t give you much extra casting distance, unless you actually run out of line during the cast, and you don´t need that for a small pond like that anyways.
Also it´s just average bass there, so you won´t need extra line for the fight.
So filling the spool all the way gives no advantage. It just makes it more likely to tangle and the tangles can get a lot worse. And if you can´t untangle it, you will loose a lot of line.
The gear ratio marked on reel is not correct without filling the spool, this however might not be important depending on baits/ methods used
Hey man you are amazing i love your videos you are one of the big reasons why i started bass fishing in south Africa
I got the Lunkerhunt blue gill swim jig in a mystery tackle box and that thing is BEAUTIFUL!! It looks fantastic and of all my jigs it probably catches the most!
@Lojo those pliers float in space! 😂😂
Videos like this make me want to go fish more exotic places!
I am a tournament angler and I used to use the 1/4 oz power blade and crush fish. I’ve had days where I have gone through 4+ of them. The wire is too thin gauge and bends to easily when catching fish and flipping them into the boat.
I’m Irish and we don’t have bass pro but would you say it is over priced or fairly priced??
Good prices even on clothes
Experienced a rollover a couple years ago on i80 coming back from Colorado. Guy wasn’t wearing a seatbelt and was ejected. Watched him take his last breath. Still have nightmares about it lojo
that house across the way sounds like my house all this summer hahahahahah ,,,love the content keep up the greatness...
“The frog with the bad legs” can we call it the Lieutenant Dan frog?😂
Y'all should go old school, & see how good your skills are with a cane pole with a regular hook & live worms.
I've caught piles of mullet using a bamboo pole.😂
Yea some of the reviews are from forever ago one was from 16 yearssss ago. That’s crazy but I love you lojo❤ good RUclipsr and thank you for your service
I’ve caught a lot of bass, and several big bass, but I’ve NEVER caught a single fish on a spinner bait in my life. Five years ago I threw them all away.
Hey lojo! i have fished that place multiple times and never had any good luck fishing that small pond but if you follow that creek down there is a bunch of other fish. Im just 15 minutes from there. Langston, AL
Got an excellent idea from somewhere you know. Jacksonville. Fish a fans tackle. Rods and all. Lets go!
Great video and great thing yall did to run and try to help out your fellow man hope he is OK thank you for the video
Good Samaritan award lo jo 🎉 for real bro
I have the bass pro shops extreme baitcast combo, ive never had any problems with it, and ive caught good fish with it too
I got a level 10 out of 10 challenge for you! I live in Columbia, Tn and the only place within one hour of myself to fish legally is the Duck River Park. Duck River Park is the site of an old Hydraulic Damn that has been decommissioned. The river is notorious for being bipolar in it's water depth from week to week. The banks are swarmed with brush and trees and the water is a landmine field of large fallen tree logs. Most people wade into the river and walk up to the post side of the dam but the landscape of fishing stores in the area are an unwritten story for how hard or even impossible fishing the river is.
You already know the challenge. Do your research and tell the area when, where, and how to be successful in the duck river.
Did I mention there is a boat ramp?
Did I mention it has a history for containing large Brown and Rainbow trout?
Carrot, stick, challenge.....will there be a buttery cookout or are we all just going hungry?
This is cool I live around there and didn’t know if you could fish that pond.👌
These videos are 🔥🔥🔥
I drive past this spot and the state park everyday. The dock at the park is always fire
you should try deep sea fishing with temu gear, love the vids brotha👀👀
Those pinkish realistic looking 6 inch creme worms are sweet. I take my pliers and get rid of that stupid spinner, usually get weedless unless the lake is clean and rig em however ya want. I soak em in anise with a touch of lemon juice or vinegar for a few days and they are dang near as good as Kellys bass stoppers.
Let's get the podcast back up and going. Let's blow this comment up if u want it as much as I do great job lojo love the content
I need to learn the knot you use on the lures !
Boss man needs to do some charity work and get some of us hooked up on PB's!! love the content boss.
I have the bass pro extreme xml the 180 dollar version I got for Christmas last year and I’m used to daiwas but it’s been a great rod the handle is lil small as well but for jerkbaits poppers and spooks it’s great
Just looking at that Lizard, spinner, weedless, BS tells me that it would virtually scare away anything but the biggest bass in my area of Ohio. I tried throwing a 6" lizard (Overall) near some beds and the fish just bolted. Threw on a 4" shad and they instantly attacked.
Lojo, Imma say this and you'll understand it. We don't run from danger, we run TOWARDS it.
You still got that dog in you because there was ZERO hesitation.
I have that abu Garcia rod I love it caught dozens of fish on never had a problem.
actually just thought about it but maybe the floating pliers may work on saltwater due to it being denser
You wasn’t far from where I live and I am only 45 minutes from gunstersville plus my son loves your videos keep up the good work
I'll say one thing about Lunkerhunt, their plopper frog is amazing.
What bait caster is that on the Googin rod?
11:00 I have the 7'3 medium, spinning rod. And I have to say, for the price. It's pretty good i use it as a drop shot rod
You should visit the Bass Pro Shops Pyramid in Memphis.
He has
@@andrewcusenza5834 No he hasn’t.
Yeah he has
@@HoytAndersonwhat video
It’s weird seeing you get into the same store that I do like the exact same one and look after I looked at the same exact place
Love the video! Still waiting on the next pond update tho my friend!
i am so exited goin to amerika in 1 jear i know lojo you dont know me but i asced for sopfing from bass pro shop but would be also very happy about sampfing from walmarkt.
can you make a video a bout it? dankyou lojo
What bait caster is that on the googan rod?
@lojofishing what’s the best spinning reel to get for largemouthno budget
Lol the lizard looks like it's gonna work but it also look like it's gonna break on the first fish no matter the size!!
I think you should really try to use that lizard lure in your back yard pond to see if it works
Hey LoJo that Combat 🐸 seemed to be the juice until a 3 lber ripped the entire belly open and I had to super glue that sucker and it still sank str8 to the bottom…worst buy by far…get the new Swamp Lord by Berkley instead…smashed a 5 lber this spring on it!
Been here since day one and it makes my day to see the videos brither
I'm so excited for this vid just off the intro
Awesome video man 🎣🎣🎣🔥🔥🔥
so, the BPS branded reels are manufactured by Daiwa with the BPS branding. They're actually half-decent. as for the lunkerhunt frogs; i have a couple, and they really are that frustrating. if it weren't for the fact that the places i fish have the exact type of lillypad formations they were designed for, i'd swap'em out for a spro or scumfrog.
It would be cool to see some ultra light pan fishing setups
Why is there a profishiency baitcaster on the thumbnail of this video, but not in the actual video? Dude that's just flat-out lying:/
clickbait to get him more views
It’s a strategy or sorta a attention grabber
Everyone can find something bad in everything we see…finding the good things is what makes us exceptional. Try it.
@@mikeledsome words of wisdom
I don’t even feel like explaining anything to you so I’ll just say stop hating
I’ve honestly caught more of the lunkerhunt mini frog walking it then any googan frog I have.
People forget the ned rig (lunkerhunt bait) is a finesse lure so has a finesse hook in it you can horse on those hooks 😂.
The creme is old school and has been around since the 70s. That rig is a very old school rigging style people just don't use these days. But the rig and soft plastics haven't changed with creme since I was a kid, they catch fish though if you fish them right.
That bait. Caster sounded wild
Love this videos keep it up 🦅
that baitcaster looks so nice honestly
thanks for the content Lojo!
Bro lol bluegill fishing cmon brotha Big Bass Energy only!😂
I live literally 5 mins from guntersville awesome that ur there great fishing
The lizard withe the spinner is a top water bait bro 😂😂😂 we use them down south
Wait I thought you lost the frog on the first day? But it's on the rod the next morning lol
You said it's fishing with Trey way and Yakpak. That's Trey's new channel. Does that mean you're going to reconnect with some of the boys?
I've had very good luck on those lunkers neds
Can you come to the deer expo in Birmingham Alabama at the B JCC, July 19 and July 21 please
Let's go LOJO!! Love you man
Lojo
Before you talk bad about a lure you need to know the true history of
The lure . Back in the old days that is how they rigged live worms was rigged with two hooks
And a spindle. Back in 1949 Nick Crème came out with Crème 4” pre rigged scoundrel
Live worm. Lojo I have seen you fish the crème pre rigged lure twice both times you fished it wrong.
The way you fish it is you use a spin cast or spinning tie it to your line with no weight make a cast
Let it sink some reel in the slake give it a few twitches keep repeating the process. I’m 51 year old been using the cream rig since I was 8 caught fish back then and I still catch fish today on it
I remember pre-rigged plastic worms with two hooks when I was a kid in the 70s. The rear hook really helps catch the “short strikers.”
A signature lojo rod woul b sick googan need to do that with there Creators
Love the channel lojo keep it up!
I love the video I wanna say though the bass pro baitcaster and rod I like shorter end rods but there is a Rod I want you to try Lojo and it’s the Berkeley Shock Walmart Rod it’s one of my favorites for Braid
Can you please provide information on the Airbnb?
Ngl i didn't even know Berkley made spinnerbaits lol. Then again, I kinda fell into the Strike King/Booyah trap lol so i may have just been blind to them.
You should do a bass pro shops vs Scheels to see who catches the biggest catfish
The singer bite us really good and it caught more fish.
That’s the bass pro I go too. That’s sick!
