Does anyone know if there are any frog gigs that screw into arrows? Is so, can someone point me in the right direction? I'd like to start bowhunting frogs this summer! Thanks

Ok, I will be the first to ask

What the hell is a frog gig? Kermit and Co. singing on Sesame St.? :noidea:

I just use my bowfishing rig with a regular carp point.

a frog gig is like a carp spear only smaller, you spear the frogs and then fry up their legs :darkbeer:

Use blunts.

I think some people just use field points. Thats what I'm going to use when I go.

I just use field points and most of the time they are pined in the mud.

 

[Robin@AimLow]

Used to shoot them alot. I prefer to use blunts on reg hunting arrows rather than bowfishing gear.

 

[mule659]

I'd go for field points as well

 

[jth091]

Why not use a field point?

 

[irkr]

I have one, it's a three prong setup in a triangle pattern. I think I got it from Sully's website. Do a search for bowfishing arrows and look through the different sites' arrow points. Mine came on an arrow and is a fairly heavy setup. Good luck!

Thanks guys. I've used a field point in the past to shoot frogs. A guy told me there were special frog gigs that screwed onto your arrow but he couldn't remember who made them. Could be some BS for all I know. I think I' will just stick with the tried and true FIELD POINT!!

frog gig

I second that.The traditional way is alot easier and cheaper than losing or breaking arrows.My gig is 11 years old and has stuck hundreds of bull frogs each summer and it only cost $4.95.

For what it is worth I used to use a 12' cane pole with some 20# mono on it.

Tie a small treble hook on the end and dress it up with 8-10 strands of white cotton thread about an inch long.

They can't stand it - just dangle it about a foot over his head and give it a twitch - Game on !!!!!!!

First time I took my little girl out, she peed herself laughing.

Of course now that she is a full grown woman with her own kids she DENIES it ever happened !

if you can tune your bow back to 30 lbs or less, just use field points. As sombody said above it pins them to the ground. But, if your draw weight is too high you could loose arrows if you are hunting in soft mud. If you can't turn the draw weight back that much you should use small game points or blunts. Bull frogs are very durable animals. Pinning them to the ground will always get you the highest retrieval rate.

Always just used a flypole and a trout fly. Its a major kick and you wont loose any arrows.
