Spro Bronze Eye Frog 65 5/8 Nasty Shad
The Spro Bronze Eye Frog 65 is a 5/8 oz hollow body frog engineered by MLF pro Dean Rojas for bass anglers who need a versatile topwater lure that handles everything from thick vegetation to open water. This 65 mm frog punches through heavy cover with confidence while casting far enough to reach distant ambush zones—whether you're working a weed mat or probing open-water pockets where bass are hunting shad.
What sets the Bronze Eye Frog 65 apart is its deliberate weight distribution and design. It's built to land belly-down on every cast, giving you a natural presentation the moment it hits the water. The Nasty Shad color pattern matches the forage bass see regularly in freshwater systems, making it a reliable choice when you need to match the hatch without overthinking it.
Rigged with Gamakatsu #4/0 NSB EWG double hooks, this frog is equipped to handle hooksets in cover and turn battles from lily pads and brush. The hollow body design keeps it buoyant and gives you control over the retrieve—whether you're working it slowly through grass or keeping it moving to trigger aggressive strikes. For anglers fishing everything from tournament schedules to weekend trips, the Bronze Eye Frog 65 delivers the balance of castability, durability, and fish-catching performance that makes it a go-to topwater choice.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between a hollow body frog and a solid lure?
Hollow body frogs like the Bronze Eye Frog 65 offer buoyancy and lifelike movement in the water. The hollow design lets you control your retrieve speed and gives the frog a natural feel that can trigger more strikes, especially in vegetation where bass expect prey to move naturally.
Can I fish this frog in heavy cover and open water?
Yes. The Bronze Eye Frog 65 was designed specifically to work in both scenarios. Its 65 mm size and 5/8 oz weight make it equally at home in thick weeds and lily pads as it is in open-water situations where you want a topwater that casts distance and creates surface disturbance.
What hook setup does it come with?
The Bronze Eye Frog 65 is rigged with Gamakatsu #4/0 NSB EWG double hooks, a proven combination for penetration and hold-through in heavy cover and during hard strikes.
Who designed this frog?
The Bronze Eye Frog 65 was designed by MLF (Major League Fishing) pro angler Dean Rojas, drawing on his tournament experience and knowledge of what bass actually strike in real-world conditions.
