I know it sounds a little funny, but if you think about it...
you know, nothing wrong with seven men who met on the internet going for a swim together

heavy weight, think it would work, certainly float up better and deplace more water than a fluke.

Would have to push the hook all the way through, I could see there being an issue with getting a good hook set through the thick plastic potentially

I'd try it with a soft bodied frog with air chambers (air frog) or one made out of Elaztech (very buoyant). I think you would get better hook sets with those relative to a hollow body.

I don't think you'd want to use a frog hook.....seems like a singe hook would be better.

Works. I like the Ribbit down there.

I have not tried one on a c-rig but I have fished the ribbit frog below the surface like a soft jerk bait and have caught a ton of fish doing it....

How about a Tx. rig? Frogs dive under and stay under the surface for long periods all the time. Seems like it would work?

My PB was on a rage frog that sunk to the bottom while I was picking out a professional overrun
