Andy Crawford, James Overstreet and myself busted out laughing when Mike Huff showed us the frog he is using to cast for $100,000. We were gathered up at the Dayton Boat Dock Ramp to take the top lures photos and the launch gallery.
“I’ve had it about 10 years and I don’t even know the brand,” he said.
Whatever works. Huff is using the battle-worn frog today, and he’s not traveled far from the launch site. He’s staying there for the next 20 minutes and then plans to make the long run up the Hiwassee River, where the frog and other baits will get into the action.
Those baits are a 3/8-ounce Cumberland Pro Lures Caster Jig, with a Berkley PowerBait Power Hawg trailer. He is also using the same bait on a 3/0 Berkley Fusion19 Heavy Cover Hook, with a 1.5-ounce weight.
