We put in at Sullvins about 6:00 & here comes a storm, I thought here we go agan. As it turned out just a small front. It cooled the whole night down. We fliped a jig & threw a toad, dark worked beter CMgrant threw a spro\ no luck we got 2 keepers & about 6 fish around thicker grass. some on a 10.5 worm red-T- riged & I wont say what he was throwin.The water was way down so it brought alot of the grass in to play. But man is good to get off the Chick for a change. Less p. boaters & you got to love that grass. I mean when a fish comes up through that grass & BAM!!! it's awsome. To me it's worth the trip for just one fish. And it's such a beautful lake. Flip got me to try the new zoom horneytoad hooks. At $1.39 At S.W. for two hooks I wasn't easy to sell, but they work. More hook ups the frog stays on & it seems to come through the water diffrent. I had been given some of the small springs that the hooks have on the eye, but of course now I can't find them. Ham.Sport shop on 58 hw. did have them but their sold out rite now. If your gona throw a toad do yourself a favor & try them. They come two to a pack & your not gona get hung up much on a top water as much. Good luck.emoCool

YOUR RIGHT ABOUT THE HOOKS 2JIGS.LAST OCT.I FISHED A BFL REGIONAL ON TOHO AND I WAS USING A REGULAR HOOK AND SUPERGLUE.MY PARTNER WAS USING THE TOAD HOOKS.HE USED 4 TOADS ALL DAY AND I USED 2 BAGS UNTIL HE LET ME BORROW A HOOK!

It's just one of those small things that you don't think about unless you have had a chance to use one. The time you spend reelin in a frog thet has been pulled down by the grass or come off from a cast. That is time your not fishing. And every second counts. Not to mention two bags of toads cost about $8 & two hooks cost $1.39. Plus I do hooh up a lot more I think it's because the hook can wiggle around more when the fish grabs it. And it kind of gives it a swivel kind of action. I sound like a salesman for zoom hooks. It's just if I can help out a fellow CFF fisherman all the better.emoGrouphug
