Frogs, something besides ducks, with a How to..

After hitting a couple local places with only fair results, we've found a honey hole. GT and I knocked out 43 in short order and left hundreds alone.
My frogs get left in a cooler until the next day, usually just toss in some ice and they calm down quickly and hang tight. The majority will live through the night, use the back side of a clever and give 2-3 slaps across the back of the head and it's lights out.
To clean them up, lay the frog out and make a shallow slit at the top of the back. You can feel the spot with your finger below the shouldeers, just slice.
Use your fingers to pull up the skin and grip it with pliers. Hold their head and pull straight down.
Keep holding the head and pull their pants off completely, all in one motion.
Next angle your knife under the back meat and slice back towards the hip; press down to the cutting board with the knife and pull the front shoulders to remove the head and organs.
Clean out any left over internals or organs and toss in an icy salt water slush.
Once you get it down, you should be able to clean each frog in about 30-40 seconds.

I'd like to give it a try sometime. I've just never seen the numbers.... At least not the kind that would justify a dedicated trip. Only
nope, I use Mobley's.. the tips are replaceable, there just straightened J Hooks.

DID YOU SEE any DUCKS
Loved your post!!!
Whatchu talkin' bout Willis?
I use the same gigs. Buy all of the tips that you can now. The owner of the store I buy mine from said that the company was going out of business.
Another president put a man in the Lady's bathroom.
So there are frogs spots just like anything else? when I alligator hunt I see a few frogs but not so many that it would justify a dedicated frog trip.
I know one guy that gets quite a few though,. So I know it possible.
Opps. Did I say "duck"
