The issue is transporting of species. And remember, “big brother” is just following the wishes of the environmental movement. There are some crawfish in the basin, though, Edward. But just like turtles in the lake, crawfish are harvested by our neighbors to the point you rarely see either anymore.

Ya I forgot about big brother looking out for us. So crawfish are definitely out as well.

You mean besides the necessity of an Environmental Impact Study and report, Edward? Those may cost a $100,000 or more and then don’t ensure approval. Furthermore, there is limited availability. American bullfrogs are considered an invasive exotic. The California red legged frog is an Endangered Species. Commercial raising of frogs (mostly for frog legs) is generally considered both unsuccessful and unprofitable.

I’m new to frog fishing as their isn’t a whole lot of places to toss it in the lakes I fish. However, I wanted to try so I set about looking at different rod manufacturers for just the right length and action to fit me. Once that was settled, I asked around, did some reading, watched some TV shows on frog fishing, and talked to a number of people before making the plunge and purchasing my set up. I ended up purchasing a Dobyn’s rod, a Lew’s reel, Daiwa Samurai braid, and Jackall frogs. I’m happy to say that although I didn’t actually land any fish, I did get three nice hits on top of the weeds and was very happy for my first time throwing a frog. Haven’t tried any popping frogs yet, but they’re on my shopping list!
