SLOW. DOWN.
That frog doesn’t always have to be moving! I was fishing pads fast this night but when I hit open water I was letting it sit and reeling slack as we drifted.

I’d let it sit for about 5-7 seconds before twitching it and that’s when this guy choked it. I’m telling this story because I didn’t even think about how the cooler temps would affect bait on the surface. So slow down, pay attention and let the fish tell you what they’re after. Or just force feed them the senko
