Scum Frog Painted Trophy Series Popper 1/2 Black Blue
The Scum Frog Painted Trophy Series Popper in 1/2-ounce black and blue is a weighted hollow body frog built for anglers who want serious topwater action without the premium price tag. NetBait engineered this frog to walk and chug through vegetation and open water with the erratic, high-riding movement that triggers aggressive strikes from bass. The 1/2-ounce weight balances casting ease with the stability needed for precision presentations around cover—you'll load the livewell without burning out your arm.
What sets the Trophy Series apart is attention to the details that actually matter in the strike zone. The black nickel hook is oriented point-up for cleaner hooksets and a higher catch ratio than conventional frog designs. Large eyes positioned on the sides of the body sit where fish can see them, adding visual appeal that drives feeding strikes. The solid brass weight (not lead) keeps the frog riding high in the water column for maximum surface disturbance and erratic movement—exactly what you want when you're hunting big bass in shallow cover.
The flat silicone skirts provide a different action profile than round designs, giving you another option to match whatever the bass are feeding on that day. Whether you're fishing vegetation, shoreline wood, or open flats, this popper walks with authority and responds to varied retrieve speeds. It's a versatile topwater tool that won't ask you to choose between performance and value.

Frequently Asked Questions
What kind of bass will the Trophy Series popper attract?
The high-riding topwater action and erratic movement are designed to trigger strikes from aggressive bass hunting prey on the surface, particularly in shallow cover where visibility is good.
Can I fish this frog around heavy vegetation?
Yes. The hollow body design and upturned hook point make the Trophy Series effective in and around vegetation. The 1/2-ounce weight helps you cast accurately into tight pockets and weed edges.
How does the black and blue color perform in different water conditions?
The product information provided doesn't include guidance on color performance across water clarity levels, so we recommend testing it in your local waters or consulting your local tackle shop for seasonal color recommendations.
Is this frog difficult to cast?
No. The 1/2-ounce weight is specifically designed to make casting easy while still maintaining the erratic, high-riding topwater action the frog is known for.
