WM Bayou Techno Frog

The Techno Frog is a solid-body soft-plastic frog with kicking legs, hand-poured in Texas by WM Bayou. Unlike a hollow-body frog, it rigs weedless Texas-style and fishes at any depth — walk it over pads, punch it through mats, or swim it like a swimbait. $6.99.

How is it different from a hollow-body frog?

A hollow-body frog is a topwater-only bait. The Techno Frog is solid soft plastic with kicking legs, so it can be rigged Texas-style (weedless), fished weightless on the surface or weighted down to suspended bass, and worked as a swim bait on a steady retrieve or as a punch rig in matted vegetation.

How do you rig the Techno Frog?

Weightless Texas rig — walk it across lily pads and open grass. Weighted Texas rig (1/4–3/8 oz) — punch through matted vegetation. Swimbait hook — steady retrieve for bass chasing shad in open water. It also works as a buzzbait or chatterbait trailer for extra profile and kicking action. Best hook: 4/0–5/0 EWG offset worm hook.

When is the Techno Frog most effective?

Summer through early fall, when bass are shallow in vegetation — lily pads, hydrilla, grass mats. It fishes stained to clear water, and it's been a producer in heavy pad and hydrilla coverage across Texas, Louisiana, and Michigan.

What colors does it come in?

Green Pumpkin, Blue Swirl, Watermelon Red Pearl. $6.99.
