Scum Frog Pro Series 5/8oz Watermelon Red-Chartreuse

The Scum Frog Pro Series 5/8oz Watermelon Red-Chartreuse is a hollow body frog lure built to throw where other topwater baits fail—heavy weeds, lily pads, and vegetation that most swimmers can't navigate. This isn't a generic popper; it's engineered around real tournament-tested design principles that separate productive frogs from decorative ones.

What makes the Pro Series stand out is the attention to detail in the mechanics. A glass rattle mounted at the hook shank produces audible noise underwater without interfering with hooksets—your vibrations cut through murky water while the rattle stays clear of the bite zone. The 4/0 Owner frog hook is sharp out of the box and angled slightly upward, a geometry that measurably improves your hookup rate on aggressive strikes. The nose ring gives the lure true freedom of movement, letting you walk it side-to-side with precision; paired with internal brass weight that settles the body flat on each cast, you get consistent presentation and balanced action every time.

Watermelon Red-Chartreuse is a proven color combination that triggers strikes in stained to clear water across shallow cover. Whether you're fishing swamps, pond edges, or weed lines, this 5/8oz profile casts cleanly and lands nose-down, ready to work. Scum Frog has built a reputation on making frogs that actually fish—not just look good in a tackle box.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size water and cover is this frog designed for?

The 5/8oz Pro Series works best in shallow cover—heavy weed lines, lily pad fields, and marshy areas where you need a lure that lands softly but still gets noticed by fish holding tight to vegetation.

Does the rattle interfere with hooksets?

No. The glass rattle is mounted directly to the hook shank but positioned below the hook eye and bite zone, so it generates maximum underwater noise without getting in the way when you set.

What's the hook quality?

The Pro Series comes rigged with a premium 4/0 Owner frog hook that's sharp from the box and angled slightly upward to increase your hook penetration rate on topwater strikes.

Will this frog stay balanced during the retrieve?

Yes. Internal brass weight is engineered to settle the body flat on every cast, ensuring consistent presentation and reliable nose-down action throughout your retrieve.
