I know it comes down to each his own but I'll stick with the Hornytoad. I have tried many others and will continue to try new ones but so far nothing. Eats that Zoom Hornytoad. Jmo!
See, I like the floating Ribbit and how it doesn't sink. If I get to an open spot, I'll kill it and then lightly twitch it to entice that bass to hit it.

I actually prefer a SPRO Bronzeeye to a Ribbit. It floats higher in the water, I can walk the dog with it, and it rides up and over the grass better in my opinion.

About the only time I'll switch from a Bronzeeye to a Ribbit is if the fish are not taking the whole thing, and I need a smaller profile.

Someone mentioned using braid due to the type of cover you tend to fish frogs in, I prefer braid simply for the zero stretch, as you need to drive those hooks in. I absolutely cannot hook up with mono...it just stretches way too much and it's very difficult to get a good hook set.
