FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
BEFORE YOU
TIE IT ON.
What makes the Chuggerknot different from other popping frogs?
The Chuggerknot uses a unique inverted cone-shaped mouth that captures surface air and drives it beneath the water during each chug. This creates a deeper sound signature and more disturbance than traditional popping frogs.
When should I choose the Chuggerknot over the Chop Frog?
Choose the Chuggerknot when you want to keep a lure in the strike zone longer and actively call fish out of cover. The Chop Frog excels with a steady retrieve, while the Chuggerknot shines when worked with pauses and deliberate chugs.
Can I fish it in heavy vegetation?
Yes, but the Chuggerknot needs water to drive the air into to create it's signature chugging sound. The Chuggerknot works best on edgelines, pockets, and over submerged vegetation.
What's the best retrieve for the Chuggerknot?
Use short or aggressive pulls of the rod tip followed by brief pauses. This allows the lure to chug, push air beneath the surface, and then reset in place, giving fish time to locate and attack the bait.
Why does the Chuggerknot resurface so quickly after each chug?
While the Chuggerknot does dive into the water on every hard pull, the body cavity is filled with air which gives the lure the bouyancy to return to the surface quickly.
