to cold forem
I see quite a few every year especially when dove hunting around farm ponds in September.
I still see them at Lake Shawnee but not like years ago, but see oodles of them in farm ponds!
Guess I need to shop for a new frog pond. Sure is some good eatin.
Couple ponds I fish have dozens of monster bullfrogs. Makes it tough to even fish a topwater frog for bass during the summer sometimes.
You might want to get a few for the skillet.
Used to do a lot of frogging in the flinthills around Emporia and the Grove. Love those home grown frog legs!Quote:

I've also noticed fewer bullfrogs at some of lakes with "permanent" waters. Low water levels on normally consistent shorelines leaves a lot of the good frog habitat high and dry so that may help explain some situations.
Makes sense.
yea I remember as a teenager around Coffeeville catching bullfrogs that would have full grown doves in there mouth. great eating not just the legs but the back meat as well
Did you eat the doves also?
