Weedless paddle-leg action from the surface to heavy cover
Typical delivery times range from 5 to 7 days
Grass, lily pads, and shallow cover call for a bait that can move across the surface without giving up a natural kicking action. The Freedom Baitz Recon Frog is a 4-inch soft-plastic frog with paddle legs, a slotted belly, and weedless rigging capability. Fish it weightless across the surface or just below it, then move the same frog to jig-trailer duty when you want to work deeper.

Rig the Recon Frog weightless and adjust your retrieve to control where it runs. A faster presentation keeps it working across the surface, while changing retrieve speed can bring the frog just below the water. The paddle legs provide action and vibration throughout the retrieve. Its weedless capability makes it especially useful for covering grass and lily pads, while the slotted belly allows the hook to push through when a bass commits.
The Recon Frog takes its name from military reconnaissance units that operate stealthily in hostile territory. The connection fits the bait's job: move across bass territory with a weedless presentation and reach fish holding around vegetation and cover. It's another memorable military-inspired design from veteran-owned Freedom Baitz, a Minnesota company that hand-pours and packages its soft plastics in the USA.
Freedom Baitz recommends fishing the Recon Frog weightless for surface and near-surface presentations. Its weedless rigging capability is particularly useful around grass and lily pads, and the slotted belly gives the hook room to push through during a hookset.
It can. Freedom Baitz says the weightless Recon Frog can run on the surface or just below it depending on retrieval speed, allowing you to change the presentation without changing baits.
Yes. Those are specifically called out by Freedom Baitz as places to fish the Recon Frog. Its weedless rigging capability lets you work the soft-plastic frog over vegetation and around cover where bass can ambush prey.
Yes. Freedom Baitz recommends the Recon Frog as a jig trailer for deeper presentations and specifically suggests pairing it with the company's Boujee Jigs lineup.
The Recon Frog is named after military reconnaissance units that operate stealthily in hostile territory. The name continues veteran-owned Freedom Baitz's tradition of giving its custom plastics U.S. military-inspired identities.
