Rapala BX Skitter Frog 4.5cm 7.5g Hot Snake

Rapala BX Skitter Frog 4.5cm 7.5g Hot Snake — Punches Through Heavy Cover

The BX Skitter Frog is built to go where the big predators hide. In Hot Snake colour, this 4.5cm topwater frog lands precisely in dense vegetation and kicks off an irresistible hopping, splashing surface commotion.

Balsa Core with Copolymer Armour

At the heart of the BX Skitter Frog sits a responsive balsa wood core that delivers lifelike jumping action on every twitch. Wrapped in a tough copolymer shell, the lure can handle repeated strikes from hard-hitting fish without losing its shape or finish — so one frog goes a long way through a tough season.

Near-Weedless Design for Heavy Cover

The upward-turned VMC® 7925 Black Nickel double hook (#1/0) rides close to the body, and the thick rubber skirt deflects weeds, reeds and lily pads with minimal hang-ups. This lets you work the lure confidently across mats, through gaps in vegetation, and tight to snaggy structure — exactly where pike, bass and perch are waiting in ambush.
