One of the most exciting soft plastic baits out there, Stanley Jig's Ribbit Frog produces heart stopping action that provokes explosive strikes from big bass. The Ribbit Frog is very versatile, and is effective when buzzed along the surface or rigged weedless and fished over logs, grass beds or lily pads. Unrigged.

Rated 5 out of 5Â by FunkyFlanders Best Frog Out There
I bought the Yellow Ribbit Frogs and boy was it the right choice. The first cast a 4lb bass came and nailed it off the top of the water. The most exciting fishing outthere the bass hit it so hard he swallowed the whole frog hook combo. You have to use these at the right times of the day or they wont work as good. Early Early in the morning or right before the sun goes down. These frogs hold up really well no damage done after 4 to 5 big fish. If you want the most exciting fishing out their buy the Stanley Ribbit Frogs. I bought yellow and i will buy a whole lot more colors to test out. 5$ a bag is not that bad but when I lose one to a lily or bad cast I get mad.
Again you have to use theses frogs at the right times. if the fish are on the bottom and your using a top water frog obviously it's not going to work out. if you can't figure out how to rig it YOUTUBE it and get it right. It does flip upside sometimes but it's not biggy

This is a great frog pattern lure. it is very fun to use when the bite is on because of the acrobatics. they hold up very well and when paired with the ribbit double hooks they are pretty good with hooksets. fun to throw right in the middle of cover and drag big bass out!

Rated 4 out of 5Â by AaronBassMaster48 Great bait
The Stanley Ribbit Frog is one of my favorite topwater baits to turn to when the bite is tough on floating frogs and the water is not choppy. I caught my record bass (7.5lbs and 24 inches which is in the picture) on this ribbit frog. When i fish this frog, I either use a 4/0 wide gap Laser hook or the ribbit double hook with the spiral connector. The downsides to this bait is that if you don't rig them right, they will flip over when it hits the water and swim upside down. They can also tear at the nose of the bait and fall off. The best time to use these frogs is around 6:00 AM/ sunrise and 6:00-8:00 PM/ throughout sunset. I would recommend these baits to any bass fisherman who uses topwater often. It will produce lots of nice fish.

SproA:Â
I have tried most of the Scum Frog Line Up, I haven't caught but a couple with them, the hooks are not any good on them in my opinion either, really too small, and the instructions tell you to wait 2 or 3 seconds, this hasn't worked, the Bass Pro #4 hooks, you can hook them in a microsecond, I haven't missed a bite since I changed. Bait works better as well, sits lower in the water and makes for better popping action.A:Â

I use only the Stanley double hook designed for this lure, and I like the bullfrog color best.A:Â
It is slightly aggrivating to rig with the double hooks. You have to push them up through the legs and they need to be even. It's worth the aggrivation because it does increase the hookup ratio. If I were fishing at night, I would use the Bull Ribbet in Black. Hope this helpsQ:Â

Has anyone ever tried it with the Stanley double take hooks and would it be worth the cost?

I prefer a 5/0 wide gap, super glue in the nose. Use a 1/0 or 2/0 trailer hook and a Bass Pro Hook Guard to keep it weedless. Skin hook the 5/0. Better hook-up rate, better leg action than with double hook.A:Â
I like the double hooks as it gives me an extra sense of reliability. True they are a little on the pricey side, but then again if one has that extra assurance of a hook up then it is worth it.A:Â
Yes and Yes! I increased total hook up by 3 times with the double hook. I also notice that my baits balance trough rough cover was stable because of the hook.Get it and you wont be disappointed.
A:Â
Yes they actually make the Ribbit Frog Weedless.And it is worth the cost bought a pack from the local store.

yes, i have, they work but I think the hooks are a little to big for the Ribbit, they work better on the Bull Ribbit2 years, 8 months ago

A:Â
yea, these hooks work good but you need a bigger frog like the Bull ribbit because the gap between the 2 hooks is pretty wide2 years, 8 months ago

I came across my favorite frog out of need. I had to restock for a trip and I was running low. My favorite used to be the Yum Buzz Frog. I also throw Rage Toads and Sizmic Frogs from time to time. On the day of my trip the only frog I could find was the Stanely Ribbit frog. After using this frog it is hands down my favorite. It is soft enough to retrieve it at any speed and it kicks up plenty of water. It comes in great colors and it is plenty durable. The price is nice also. I dont know about the Yum Money Frog. I just wont pay that kind of money. And I can afford it. I just wont pay 10$ for a few pieces of plastic. Hope this helpsImages for this Answer

I have both in my tackle and will switch if I find the occasion needs the change. The Stanley frog is softer and I like the penitration that I get from the hooks. I guess it is your call.A:Â
yes alot of difference the yum frog sinks a little and is hard to keep on top where the ribbit is very easy to keep on top and it creat's a good vibration on the top that bass cant stand.A:Â
I think the Stanley Ribbit Frog has better actionA:Â
There is a great deal of difference. The Ribbit has a ton more action than the Buzz frog, on top as well as under the surface. I have out fished the buzz frog 5 to 1 everytime out.A:Â
Yes HUGE defferece. The Yum frog is much much more stiff and doesnt swim at all on the fall. ive used both actually and loved the stanleyA:Â
this one works better!A:Â
Yes. The flat design of the Ribbit frog keeps it from rolling over. The Yum Buzz frogs have a relatively thicker profile and roll very easy.
Top 500 Contributor
A:Â
I think that there is, I have had the yum frog feet to cross over causing the bait to not work until the feet are untangled, I have never had the feet on a Stanley to tangle togetherDetails:Â
wondering what size and model hook i should use for ribbit frog- thankyou
Answers
Top 50 Contributor
A:Â
use a 4/0 or 5/0 extra wide gap hook - or a similar sized weighted hook... the kind that has abit of lead molded onto the hook shank. The weighted hooks are abit better for open water usage, similar to how you'd fish a buzzbait.A:Â
use a 3/0 ofsset shank hookA:Â
I use a screw on 5/0 wide gap hook from OWNER. Ribbit also have their own hooks, however I have not personally tried them.A:Â
i use 3/0 spring keeper wide gap hooks. basically any wide gap spring keeper swimbait hook will work.A:Â
4/0 Gamakatsu EWG or similar with a twist lock. weighted of unweighted
Top 50 Contributor
A:Â
I failed to mention the Stanley Jigs Ribbit Double Take Hooks. They are recommended and I saw a video of rigging it, seems that it would work well too. For now, I'll stick with the Gamakatsu 3/0. I'm impressed by it's use.
Top 50 Contributor
A:Â
I would recommend a 3/0 EWG hook (Gamakatsu preferred). The length of the body against rigging it makes this the best choice for me. It's pretty easy to rig and hooking them won't be a problem while being weedless. I will recommend, though, to use super glue on the nose to hook so that you don't lose as many of the bodies.A:Â
I use a zoom 5 0 frog hook. It seems a little big, But I rarely miss any fish. And I catch a lot of BIG fish. Also, use a fish attractant. (Garlic) For the one you do miss. They will hit it again.A:Â
Some good hooks to try are the Gamakatsu EWG Superline in 4/0 and 5/0http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/
