Default Catching Frogs

Hi Kate:

I understand that fish will eat green and bull frog eggs. If you don't
already have fish adding some might help.

Nope, doesn't work.
You wanna see something funny, try a middle aged chubby lady running

around
an 80' pond hollering at the croakers.
You'd need dry pants!

I currently have a fresh hatching of polywogs. Would like to stop this
generation before it can hop and holler!

Do you fishing? When using live bait, collect it at the spot where you
fishing.

Observe what the frog catch for food, use it as bait and have some
frog fishing.

Frog just eat those thing that is moving, so as long as you make the
bait moving infront of the frog, the bait can be dead bait.

Some frog are nice to taste. :-)

Hi Wong,

LOL.... I don't want to eat them. I want to catch a few and give them
to a friend for his pond (and to make mine less noisy).

Thanks for the suggestion on how to catch them.

What a waste! Frog can demand a high price here. g

Thanks for the suggestion on how to catch them.


You are welcome. :-)

To tell the true, I do read a lot, but try little on what I read. I
has never do frog fishing before, but will do it in future when I'm
free.

For this frog fishing, should be quite reliable, because I read it a
few times from difference sources.

Cheers,
Wong

nswong, Be careful what you catch. If my memory serves me right,
some frogs from Cambodia and Malaysia are very toxic.
