Messinger Bucktail Frog - 1/0 stinger hook (5/0 size)
SKU:

It's hard to imagine how many bass have been caught on a bucktail frog created over seventy years ago by Joe Messinger, Sr. of Morgantown West Virginia. Messinger's design was clearly ahead of his time. This one is pro tied with a mono weed guard in size 1/0 on a Mustad #37178 stinger bass bug hook. Keep in mind the stinger hooks run on the large side. The 1/0 has a gap of 20mm, about the same as a 5/0 standard hook. This is quite a large popper...for BIG bass.
