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.
I love fishing the SPRO myself. I have played with them by putting rattles in them and having one leg longer and using a sharpie to make some really bold lines on the bottom. It's an awesome bait for sure.

It's funny about us fisherman.....I only use mono when fishing frogs hahaha. I use 7th med heavy or longer rods and 17-20 excel mono. I know tossing that big rod for 10-12 hours can wear you out. I'm gonna wear myself out some more this weekend!!! Well if I get this swollen knee to act right! Arghhhhh!
