    Default Frogging?

    I'm not sure if you could call it fishing but what if the fish aren't biting? you are in a survival situation and you happened to have some flies in your kit. the fish won't bite. what do you do? i believe the correct answer would be to try to catch some frogs on the fly. thats right. It occured to me that frogs eat flys. so use flies. does anybody do this or is it even possible?

    (head slap) Doh! Firstest, frogs don't normally swim out away from shore. They are fraidy cats and are concerned they might be...I don't know....eaten. It's in bold letters in their Frog Survival Manual. You'll find them on shore, in shallow water, or sloughs where you can catch them by hand or by gig.

    If you can't get close enough to gig, grab or "fish" get an old BB gun if you are lazy like me. Lots of stuff can be taken up close with a Crossman pump up pellet & BB gun.

    Ned - doh is not copyrighted (neither is Doh!). D'oh is trademarked and there is a difference.

    and there I was being led to believe that reason had nothing to do with anything involving you deadly neddly.
    some fella confronted me the other day and asked "What's your problem?" So I told him, "I don't have a problem I am a problem"

    If you're so stressed out why not just chill out instead of taking it out on people that are trying to help you? If you make it more difficult, that help that you seek may be harder to come by.

    Good Lord, you ain't gonna learn to get frogs that way and if you happen to hit one with your truck remember to cut the leaders in their legs or they will jump out of the pan.

    you're right. i sometimes take it out on people without even noticing. i'm really sorry guys. i try to chill out but i'm in quite a prediciment thats way over my head.i try to chill but everything seems to scream "you're going to get fired". see kinekor might be replacing me for a machine. its a terrible thing to be going through and i'm sorry for taking out my frustrations on you.
