Default Frogs, etc: What do you use?

I know it likely doesn't matter to the fish, but what frog brands do you guys prefer? Mice qualify here, too! Thanks!

ZOOM HORNY TOADS OR BUST! Used with the zoom shakey head horny toad hook is killer. I've used a lot of other brand hollow body frogs and mice but I've noticed I land way more fish with the horny toads the hollow bodies. Just my .02

I've used Koppers, Spro, and Matzuo (sp?) frogs, and have a snag-proof moss mouse too.
The Spro and the Kopper frogs are very similar, and work well. The Matzuo is smaller and I use that with lighter line in smaller ponds, but you can tell it isn't as well made. The Snag-Proof I bought because i wanted a mouse, and it has a weird look on its face. LOL
I also have a solid plastic frog that I use with Gami EWG hooks. It floats and has a cupped face like a popper. Down to my last one now and it catches just as well as the others. Bought it from the mark-down box at the store where I work and have not seen anything like it. Fish grab it and really hang on.

i have better luck with big tube baits used as frogs --they float pretty good and the hookup with the hollow body is way better than any frog i tried--they come in lots of colors had good luck with bubblegum even and easy to see--also when i am thru the heavy stuff i can let it sink next to the cover for any followers--good luck

Spro and Koppers are both really good.As far as buzz frogs go Gambler cane toads are excellent.Most important thing is to pause before setting the hook.

I use Strike King rage tail toads, I like the action of the big floppy legs. I've also been using Havoc pit bosses and craw fattys- like mtman with the tubes, I find the hookup is better with the softer bodied plastic.
