As of last year it's my favorite frog on the market. There super easy to walk and I got great hook ups all year on them. Braid Breaker and I Dare You were my best two colors, but I did catch fish on Rod Breaker and Broken Arm to. Make sure you superglue the weight in as they tend to fall out after a dozen or so fish. If I glued them in real good I was catching 40 to 50 fish per bait last year.

It's a popping swamp donkey, and I love it!

However... some of the frogs, for some odd reason sink immediatley. I sent a few back to them to analyze, and the replacements they sent me did the same darn thing... I havent figured out why some do and some don't... but... I still throw the crap out of them, and the ones that work good are by far my go to baits. Sometimes the fish prefer a more subtle frog like a donkey with no pop, but when they are ultra aggressive they get the transporter.

I'd like to pick one up once they start eating the frog again. I love the Swamp Donkey.

I have 4 transporters. 3 of them fill with water every cast and sink.......not conducive to fish catching. the other one pops and walks great, but only seems to catch fish when they are ultra aggressive and would hit anything floating&moving. I will not buy any more until I hear of a redesign with positive reviews.

When it floats it has some pretty sweet action. But, it only floats half way through a retrieve.
