Let's Compare

[JB]

I know this was a thread last year but I just now got back from the baitmonkeys store and decided to compare 3 types of frogs.
I was only going after some 4/0 hooks, but decided to get a few bags of the Manns Hardnose frog, and some ribbits.
I like the idea of the ribbit making a topwater sound similiar to a buzzbait when running it fast over open water.......Denny was using them last night and it was my first time to see them in action, so of course I had to add a couple dozen to my arsenal.
I got all 3 dif types out and they are very close in size and length. The ribbit advertises its a HIGH FLOATER, big deal huh? but I was more interested in the slot size they give you and how the hook will penetrate.
The Manns Hard Nose frog is almost the same size, dif feet, but advertises the hardnose keeps the hook in place...no big whoop, if I have problems of that nature on the water I either glue it in place or use a toothpick.
All three have dif feet, will come in handy for open water, however most of my fishing will be on the mat.

Ribbit I got floats, so the combo of all three should make some fun testing.
any comments pros or cons on the three brands?
