Why are frogs so effective in hot weather

Thats because it has a reputation for producing backlashes (also known as birds nests or, euphemistically, professional overruns)

Sunfish, perch and crappie anglers should have a mix of profiles and hook orientations, including horizontal jigs with a 90-degree angle (e.g., VMC Pug Bug , the Custom Jigs brand and Spins Ratfinkee or Lindy Fat Boy ) vertical ones (e.g., Clam Blade Jig or Lindy Frostee ) and jigs with a 45-degree angle profile (e.g., Clam Drop Jig or Custom Jigs and Spins Gill Pill ), for improved hook-ups of nibblers

Looking at several examples of this bait online, it doesnt seem like Walter had an exact cut in mind, some of them slope slightly upwards, some are gently scooped, mine is pretty much straight

I had a Cadence baitcasters last season that was really really good initially
