The Ribbit Floater Frog is the same design and size as the Original Ribbit, but it is made with a light weight plastic. The plastic used to make the Ribbit Floater Frog allows them to float on the surface. Rig them up with a weightless hook and work them across the surface as slow or fast as you want. The weight of the frog is decent enough to be cast a fair distance, even without adding any weight to it. Lonnie Stanley, the bait’s creator, recommends using a belly-weighted hook, adding 1/8 oz.
Kinda like a buzz bait almost, but I use the double frog hooks.
