Pro bass tip: Miss Piggy really does love Kermit

It is only fitting that beloved Muppet characters Kermit the Frog and Miss Piggy have had a long and sometimes stormy relationship, because there are few baits more inclined to trick hawg largemouth bass into biting, than a soft plastic frog (or rat or mouse). And every season, too, we catch some huge smallmouth, albeit by accident, fishing the amphibians over top of thick weedy cover. I have even been shocked to nab an occasional walleye that was swimming in the lush warm Amazon jungle-like vegetation. What is with that?!?

But as good as hollow body frogs are for largemouth bass, there are a couple of tricks you can employ to make them even better.  Just click on the following video to watch the Fish Talk With The Doc video tip that I shot for the Fish’N Canada television show for the details.
