And they had a blast! We ended getting several frogs and some were pretty big. I thoroughly enjoyed being out there with the kids. You can watch the video below: https://youtu.be/OE5XOds8ocIThanks, Bama Creek Bum

It’s a lot of fun, watch out for snakes.
They are hunting those frogs also.

Oh yes. We were in a cow pasture, really clean, and didn’t see the first snake. When it gets much warmer we will have to be very careful. Bama Creek Bum

I’ve caught and eaten a lot of frogs, but never gigged one.
I love eating the backs as well.

Have not done that since I was about 13. We always went to the rice fields between fm 1093 and I 10 west on Cinco ranch when it was still a ranch.

Eating the backs? Would this be cutting the frog in half at the hinge joint in his back?

I love eating the backs as well. If you skin a frog and a squirrel and lay them side by side, it is very hard to tell the difference between them. When I was in the service in Oklahoma, frog hunting was one of my forms of entertainment and food in the freezer. Use to put a dozen in the one carboard wax covered one gallon milk containers.

We used to catch a hundred or so in under an hour on the bow of an airboat in Louisiana duck ponds. Always grabbed them by hand, have never used a gig. Id probably rather a good night of frog hunting over any hunting or fishing trip. Its lots of fun for sure.

brings back good memories.
keep em on the creeks and off the streets.
