This week we take a look at the StandFord BOOM BOOM Frog . A brand new bait from the mind of Stanford and Fred Boom Boom Roumbanis
Product Description
The one of a kind Boom Boom Frog with Frogfur™ Stanford Baits teamed up with Elite Series Pro Fred Roumbanis to develop the ultimate Frog. A Frog that has all the innovative fish catching components. Frogfur™ is a patented pending innovation that greatly increases increases your fish hook up ratio! The Frogfur™ snags the sand paper like rigidness of the Basses mouth. Making it harder for the fish to miss or throw the topwater Frog. The Diamond shaped belly weight was designed so that the weight doesn't interfere with the hook. Allowing the hook to pop further up on hooksets. It also features a razor sharp Mustad Wide Gap Frog hook.

Fred Roumbanis
Fred Roumbanis, also known as “Boom Boom” or “Swimbait Fred”, has fished both the BassMaster and FLW Tours. Like his nickname suggests, one of Roumbanis’ favorite techniques is throwing giant swimbaits or frogs. Roumbanis’s heaviest bag weighed on FLW scales measured in at an astonishing 34 pounds and 5 ounces. This big bag was accomplished on Lake Okeechobee in 2011. When not fishing competitively, Roumbanis can be found fishing for fun with his friends or listening to music, or helping to design new baits.
Fred recently paired with Stanford Baits to release the all new Boom Boom frog which hit the shelves earlier this month.

This week we take a look at the Molix Supernato Beetle . Not exactly a new bait, and not exactly a frog, I have been avoiding the Supernato Beetle for a few seasons, but its time has come!
Product Description
Incredibly versatile, the Molix Supernato Beetle can be worked at any retrieve speed to produce a steady paddle and a noticeable splash. Just as deadly with a walk and a pop, the cupped-mouth of the Molix Supernato Beetle can be used to generate a heavy spitting lunge.
Super-soft and collapsible, the Molix Supernato Beetle features a razor-sharp double hook that produces rock-solid hook-ups and allows it to move over heavy slop and snaggy vegetation with ease. Offered in a number of bass-catching colors, the Molix Supernato Beetle delivers a highly individualized action and a unique look that is unlike anything else on the market.
Product Specs
Weight: 5/8oz
Length: 3.0"

Welcome to the 2nd edition of the Frog Addicts Newsletter. Each month we will be reviewing up to the minute frog and bass fishing related news plus recapping the previous months "Best Of" when it comes to social media, frog videos and more.. Here is what's happening in the world of frog fishing.
Hitting the Shelves
Feb is notoriously a slow month when it comes to new products hitting the shelves and 2018 is no different.
Newly released and available direct, the Blitz Buzz Phrog is a unique mix of the Snag Proof Kicker frog and the classic Tru Tungsten Mad Maxx. Built for steady retrieves over sparse to medium cover the Buzz Phrog should seriously churn some water. - Available Now!
Speaking of Churning water Booyah Baits mad a splash this month when they re-released the Teckel Sprinker frog, only they called it the Toad Runner (a much cooler sounding name). This frog stirs up mixed emotions in me, as I have previously been a big fan of Booyah's Pad Crasher both on the water and in my wallet. Lets see of the Toad Runner can offer up something new and prove its not just a copy cay - Available Spring 2018
Instagram user @hideki_maeda let slip an image of a potential new frog from Teckel Lures. The image was simply captioned "Got Cup" check out this link for an up-close look at a potential new Teckel Frog. We'll keep our eyes open for more info from Teckel. - Availability Unknown ???
UPDATE: Check out the below video section for an update on this news item. Hideki reached out to us to let us know that the frog in the image is just a home made popper, he followed up with a video how-to shared below. On a positive note he mentioned that he is working on a couple new frogs as we speak.
Rounding out the Feb Frog news is a new release from Live Target Lures. You may have noticed this bait kicking around the Tackle Warehouse site the past few weeks but it is now officially in stock and listed in the new product section. This is a very interesting new bait with a new take on a traditional popper mouth. Designed in conjunction with angler Scott Martin this is live targets first foray into "Signature Series" baits. - Available Now!

I got excited when I saw a quick instagram image of what looked like a potential new from from Teckel. But, when I reached out to Hideki Maeda he quickly corrected me by pointing me to this video where he shows us how to turn any Teckel frog into a popper.. watch and lear
Feature Frog : Teckel Choker
#4 - Scott Martin breaking down his Signature Series Live Target Popping Frog
Ok so this video is a bit older then Jan 2018, but with the release of the Live Target Popping frog i thought it was important that you got a quick look at exactly what Scott Martin and Live target and brining to the table.
Fun clip from TX Yakerman with an front seat view of the spro frog in action. It's videos like this that make me want to get a kayak or at latest dust off the canoe. New work man!

This week we take a look at the Booyah Baits Toad Runner. This frog quickly made a splash earlier this month when Booyah teased it in a series of Instagram images and videos. It hit the shelves quickly so here is a short unboxing review.
Product Description
Delivering a loud topwater buzzing action that leaves all other frogs in its wake, the Booyah Toad Runner Frog elicits bone-jarring strikes that are not for the faint of heart. It is built around a modified Booyah Pad Crasher body with added side rails to help the Toad Runner plane more easily and stay upright. A 360-degree rotating tail creates a plopping sound and hard churning action that fish cannot resist.
It also includes a molded-in wire, which allows you to bend the tail to change the action and sound of the tail for different conditions. Precisely sized silicone legs balance and stabilize the Toad Runner during the retrieve, while also providing a lifelike appearance and motion when paused. Complete with a razor sharp double frog hook, the Booyah Toad Runner Frog will add a new element to your frog fishing arsenal.
Product Specs
Weight: 7/8oz
Length: 4.5"
