Berkley PowerBait Beat’n Paddle Frog
Description and Application: Berkley PowerBait has 25 years of proof that fish just love the formula, to the point that they will hold onto a bait 18 times longer. And that means more opportunity to catch a fish. The paddletail-style feet beat the water with an attractive sound that bass want to eat. The ultra-real HD Tru Colors take realism to new levels and the unique perpendicular hook-point keepers protect single hook and double frog hook rigs work well in all structural elements. It’s super easy to start the paddle action, and it’s designed to run weedless with a double-frog hook and single hook. The frog comes in two sizes, 3.9 inches and 3.5 inches, and in 12 forage-mimicking colors.
Staff Perspective: Simple baits are appealing to me, and the Beat’n Paddle Frog keeps it easy. The paddletail frog will entice some intense topwater explosions. And who doesn’t love catching bass on topwater? I think this kind of topwater presentation is about as good as it gets because of the versatility. It works wonders in thick vegetation, and it’ll call fish a long way in open water. Don’t share this secret with your fishing buddies, keep it up your sleeve for when the time comes to teach the all a lesson.
