The Sakura Bubble Frog 70F is a floating surface lure that combines the weedless profile of a hollow-body frog with the acoustic presence of a plopper or buzzbait. Built for power fishing in congested cover, it mounts a rotating PVC paddle tail on a stainless steel ball-bearing swivel. The slightest movement sets the tail spinning, producing a distinctive plopping sound and a trail of bubbles that pulls predators out of weed beds. A zinc alloy belly weight keeps the lure landing upright and stable through fast retrieves, and the weighting is entirely lead-free. - Length: 70mm - Weight: 19.5g - Type: Floating / Surface Lure - Tail System: Rotating Paddle Tail on Ball-Bearing Swivel - Hook: Double Hook with Retractable Points - Weighting: Zinc Alloy (0% Lead) - Sound: Aggressive "Plopper" / Buzzing Action - Pack Size: 1 Lure per Pack Dual-Action Attraction: the sound profile sits midway between a traditional buzzbait and a Whopper Plopper, and this dual vibration is effective at triggering territorial strikes from pike and bass. Retractable Hook System: the double hook sits tight against the lure's body so it slides over lily pads and wood without snagging. On a strike, the hollow body collapses instantly to expose the ultra-sharp points. Instant Start Tail: the ball-bearing swivel gets the tail spinning the moment the retrieve begins, which matters when working small pockets of open water inside large weed mats. Enhanced Visuals: the 2026 model carries high-detail Sakura 3D eyes and a robust "body-built" construction that stands up to violent surface attacks. Where to use it: - Heavy Lily Pads and Duckweed: cast directly into the thickest vegetation and walk or plop it back. The weedless design keeps you fishing efficiently in the jungle. - Summer Pike Fishing: on hot days pike often hold deep in the shade of weed beds, and the aggressive bubbling action is often the only way to irritate them into striking. - Overhanging Trees and Scrub: use the 19.5g weight to skip the frog deep under overhanging branches, places where standard lures with exposed hooks could never go. - Low-Visibility Conditions: the plopping sound provides a strong acoustic trail, making it a top choice for dawn, dusk, or when the water is stained by summer algae blooms. A tip worth remembering: don't strike the second you see the splash. When a fish hits a frog on the surface, wait about one second until you feel the weight of the fish on the rod before setting the hook. This allows the fish to fully compress the hollow body, ensuring the retractable hooks find a solid hold.
