and now the french touch
flour your "cuisse de grenouille" , hop hop in the frying pan with a bit of butter and some onions sliced very fine , don't color them ...
salt pepper and cognac and make it blaze ..
mix some creme fraiche with some eggs yoke , add it to the cuisse de grenouille , let it cook 2 minutes but NOT BOILING ..
put it in a dish
bon appetit !!
you can add some crouton on top of it ..

jean-vincent,

Sir can you translate the recipe ingredients for us less coulture hillbillies in the south

You do understand that simple acronyms like TGIF (Thank God It’s Friday) is translated different down here. In the South on the back of all of our shoes you find this same acronym TGIF stamped on the back of the heel here it means "Toes Go In First"

Well now that we have all that rounded out... how's about one of your slick guys do a "how to" on cleaning and prepping them for all this gastronomical delight!

Ya just take a big blade and whack off them at the waist, or what? & how do you skin a frog?

No ethnic reference intended! :eek:

South MS Bowhunter · « **Reply #44 on:** July 05, 2013, 07:23:00 PM »

Doc,

That’s exactly how I do it, I have a machete that I whack right above the pelvic area separating the rear legs from the body.Then work my finger under and around the skin till i’m between the frogs leg and then grab hold of the skin while pulling down with one hand and with the other holding unto the groin area of the frog pull up until the skin pulls free. Really take longer to write this then to actually do it.

If I go tonight and have success i’ll try and have my wife video it, no promises though.

You can easily u-tube several how to on everything there is to know about frogging.

You guys got me jonzin for some frog hunting!

the ones' I've ever seen fishing were mighty small... just not something I see often hereabouts!

I need to fine some...that sounds wonderful!

My grandad used to take a fly rod, put bright colored ribbon on a hook and dangle it in front of them and catch them on a hook... Don't remember him every having any to eat though...must've been when he was a kid!

Good luck hunting, John!

What a cool looking home made gig... I love it bro!

That concrete reinforcement wire makes great tomato baskets too. I've got some I've been using for twenty years.

Do you use a low poundage bow for this?

I had a friend of mine just send me a photo of a frog he shot with a rig similar to yours that tore the head right off. :eek: :eek:

Awesome points thanks for the how to, me and the boys can take turns holding the light. Actually see a few spare evenings in future since ball ended, forget football practice starts soon.

South MS Bowhunter · « **Reply #50 on:** July 07, 2013, 02:33:00 AM »

Just back in about an hour ago...hot wet, and rainy night

But perfect for frogging

These heads are Awesome! The sound they make when they hit sounds like a ballon popping pop!

South MS Bowhunter · « **Reply #51 on:** July 07, 2013, 02:39:00 AM »

More pic’s tomorrow Kirk (Possum Head) will send me pic’s after church when he cleans them (Thanks Ol buddy) Probally got about 30 between the 5 of us. Kirk didnt shoot he acted as point man and holder of the flame, the crew was a mix of hand grabbing, Gigging and a lot of shooting, I got the least of the bunch (did i say I can’t shoot

) Awesome night!

Great tutorial, bolt cutters will cut the remesh faster and cleaner than the dremmel

Possum Head · « **Reply #53 on:** July 07, 2013, 03:47:00 PM »

O.K. the official post dressing,(or undressing if you will) yielded 27 darlings. After carrying the bag 2 hours it felt like 227! Congrats to all my shooting companions for a romantic evening in the swamp. A special thumbs up to my boy who managed to talk John (S.Ms. Bowhunter) out of his Centaur long enough for 3 consecutive kills. He's not even into trad like Pop but I hope he gets the virus. Picks will be up as soon as my sweetheart wakes up from her Sunday evening coma.

Possum Head · « **Reply #54 on:** July 07, 2013, 04:13:00 PM »

I must add that I've messed with concrete wire many times and still cant believe how durable these heads are at 2 3/4" wide. The wire is super hard and is best straightened with a pair of pliers if a bend does develop. Points any wider would hinder shooting through small branches as is the case from time to time where we hunt. As mentioned earlier a blunt is a good back-up for stump sitters or those in the thicket. Frogs hit with these bad boys know they've been hit!

I've never been out gigging frogs, but I sure like eatin' 'em, so I think I'll give it a try sometime soon.

That's a pretty slick little arrow gig you have there. Thanks for the info and for sharing the idea.

Yellow Dog · « **Reply #56 on:** July 07, 2013, 06:12:00 PM »

John, that sure is a good looking mess of frogs! Looks like you guys has a great time

Shinken · « **Reply #57 on:** July 07, 2013, 06:51:00 PM »

DANG!

That is a PILE of frogs legs right there!

Enjoy the feast!

Shoot straight, Shinken

What an AWSOME thread boys, yall really cleaned up. Good idea on frog point there John. Congrats to all of you, Shane

Terry Green · « **Reply #59 on:** July 07, 2013, 10:52:00 PM »

Sorry guys....didn't read the thread....didn't realise it was a tutorial....Larry Surtees made one like that a couple of years ago for pheasants.

Congrats....looks like too much fun!!!
