Red River (North) - Wednesday, June 15, 2011

I remember reading a while back that these kittys love frogs.  Are they good bait?  I ask because my yard is full of them.  They are all around an inch or so long (body wise).  I live 5 miles north of Larimore and these little things are all over the place.  When I mow my yard they scatter all over the place.  It would be easy to catch a pail of these little buggars.  Are these things frogs, or toads, or ?

If they're everywhere, they are frogs. That size frogs are good for walleye. The bigger size Leopard Frogs are dynamite for big catfish. I personally don't keep frogs for bait unless they're big, as big as you can get/find.

When the weather turns to rain like this, you can bet 9 times out of 10 that it'll turn into an "amphibian bite" which means if you have mud puppies/salamanders, frogs, etc, you can typically get more and better action if you're having problems catching bigger size catfish.
