competes on the pro circuits throughout the 2012 season!
Editor’s Note: Shaw Grigsby of Gainesville, Florida, won the Bassmaster Elite Series tournament on the Harris Chain of Lakes in Florida in March, 2011, cinching his ninth career victory on the BASS circuit. This week, Grigsby will tell us about the exciting new products from Strike King.
Question: Shaw, what do you like about Strike King’s new KVD Sexy Frog?
Grigsby: I’m a frog addict, and I’m extremely pleased that Strike King made a new one this year. Once I started fishing the KVD Sexy Frog, frog-bait fishing became an addiction for me. I get such a kick out of watching those bass come-up and eat that frog that I want to see it more and more.
Strike King has added some features to make the new KVD Sexy Frog better than any-other frog on the market. Strike King has put a drain hole in the back of the frog, so you don’t have to squeeze the frog to drain the water. The drain hole also helps make the frog perform more properly. Most other types of hollow-bodied frogs fill-up with water and eventually sink, creating all kinds of problems. But with every cast, the new Strike King KVD Sexy Frog will produce a frog that will float right.
Too, Strike King put a great hook in this frog to make hook setting much easier and better. I fish the Sexy Frog on 65-pound-test braided line and love skipping the frog under boat docks and bushes and around grass beds and matted grass.
I like to see those bass come-up through that mossy vegetation and inhale the frog. I enjoy jacking-up those big bass on top of the grass and winching them in like a high-speed wrecker snatches a sunken car out of a lake.
Strike King offers 10-different colors of the new KVD Sexy Frog to match every frog-fishing situation. I’ve learned that any time I have a KVD Sexy Frog tied onto my line, I’ll have fun. The KVD Sexy Frog is the best frog I’ve ever fished.
