Check price on AmazonBest for
Anglers who want a full frog box for topwater bass fishing without spending much per lure, especially those stocking up before a tournament or replacing lures lost in heavy weeds and lily pads.
Skip if
Skip it if you want a single proven lure with a longer review track record, since the Heddon X9225BON has 1,600 reviews at 4.6 stars and the XO360BB carries 1,200 reviews at 4.7 stars, both far higher than this set's 614.

Overview
A frog bite on a lily pad mat rarely lasts long, and anglers who fish heavy cover tend to lose lures to snags and break offs more than in open water. The 5PCS Topwater Frog Lures Set answers that by bundling five soft hollow frog bodies into one box for $9.99, working out to under two dollars per lure before any sale pricing.
At 4.4 stars across 614 reviews, the set sits in solid territory, just short of the single lure options in this comparison but backed by a far larger sample than most budget multi packs ever collect. The bought last month figure of 2,000+ stands out sharply against the 100+ figures posted by the Rebel F7356, Heddon XO360BB, and Heddon X9225BON, suggesting this is one of the more frequently restocked topwater options shoppers are currently choosing.
The tradeoff for that volume and per lure value is a shorter individual track record than the single lure Heddon and Rebel baits, which have each logged over a thousand reviews. Buyers choosing between the two approaches are really deciding between a proven single design or a stocked frog box built for volume fishing and losses. At $9.99 for five lures, the set is priced to be fished hard rather than babied.
Pros
- Five lures per box for $9.99, a lower per unit cost than the single lure Rebel F7356 or Heddon XO360BB at $6.99 each
- 2,000+ bought last month, far above the 100+ figure posted by every alternative in this comparison
- 4.4 star average holds up across 614 reviews, a large enough sample to trust the rating
- Soft hollow frog body designed for topwater bass fishing over cover
- Comes packaged in its own box rather than loose lures
Cons
- Review count of 614 is well below the 1,100 to 1,600 range posted by the single lure options here
- 4.4 star average is the lowest of the four topwater lures in this comparison
- No material, weight, or size specs are listed for the individual frogs in the set
- Price per box works out to just under $2 per lure, which typically reflects a simpler build than the $6.99 to $9.50 single lure options in this comparison
Performance notes
A soft hollow frog body is designed to compress and pop back into shape when a bass strikes, letting the lure sit lower in the water and slide across matted vegetation without hanging up as easily as a rigid bait. Five lures per box means anglers can rotate colors or presentations through a day without needing to buy multiples separately, and having a box included also keeps hooks from tangling into other tackle in a bag. At $9.99 for the set, the per lure cost sits closer to $2, well under the $6.99 to $9.50 charged for a single Rebel or Heddon topwater lure in this comparison, which points to a simpler construction rather than the reinforced hardware found on name brand walking baits and prop baits. That tradeoff makes sense for anglers expecting to lose a few frogs to weeds each outing rather than fish one lure all season.
What buyers say
A 4.4 star average across 614 reviews is a healthy rating for a budget multi pack, even if it lands a bit below the 4.6 to 4.7 stars the single lure Rebel and Heddon baits carry with far larger review counts. What stands out more is the 2,000+ bought last month figure, which dwarfs the 100+ level reported for every alternative in this roundup. That gap suggests current shoppers are gravitating toward the value of a five pack over a single premium lure, even if the individual per lure reputation has less history behind it. For a topwater set at this price, a rating above 4.3 with recent purchase volume this high reads as a pattern of repeat, low risk buying rather than a fluke.

Frequently asked questions
Is the 5PCS Topwater Frog Lures Set good value at $9.99?
At under $2 per lure, the set costs less per unit than the $6.99 to $9.50 single lure options in this comparison. Combined with a 4.4 star average across 614 reviews and 2,000+ bought last month, it reads as a strong value pick for anglers who want several frogs on hand rather than one premium bait.
How does this frog set compare to single premium topwater lures like the Heddon X9225BON?
The Heddon X9225BON carries a higher 4.6 star rating across 1,600 reviews at $9.50 for one lure. The 5PCS set trades that individual track record for five lures at $9.99 total and a much higher recent purchase volume of 2,000+, making it the pick for stocking up rather than betting on one bait.
What species is this frog lure set best suited for?
The listing does not specify a target species, but frog style topwater lures are built for bass fishing over matted vegetation and lily pads. At $9.99 for five lures, it fits anglers targeting bass in heavy cover where losing a lure to snags is common.
