Swimming Frog - Umpqua Fly
Details
Need a killer bug for bass & pike? Give the Swimming Frog from Umpqua a try! The Swimming Frog's deer hair head moves lots of water, while a thin weed guard protects your hook when stripping it through the lily pads. Add in some rubber legs for a little extra noise and vibration and you have a frog pattern that will attract the attention of any fish in the area.
