the color on top is of little value. What color is the belly and the sides that the belly fades into?

White belly with spotted sides

Look for a frog with those characteristics on its underside. The paint job on the top of the lure is purely for your satisfaction, kind of like having an expensive painting in your attic that nobody can see, but you know its there.

I would think though that a frog with unwebbed feet might would have a hard time swimming. Try to get a good idea of how it swims and try to mimmick it. Being a frog with unwebbed feet, its prolly gonna do a lot of kicking to get where its going resulting in a lot of water movement, so maybe try a Horny Toad with short bursts, or a spro popper. Just interesting to see that frog with unwebbed feet. Kinda looks like a tree frog, not a water frog, NEAT!
