Weedless frog = 50% "fish on"

Gee oh man.  Today I got a chance to really experiment with my weedless frog in the lake.  Our pond has a lot of sludge right not floating on top.  There are many openings though to work a frog through. The frog was KILLING in the "strike" category but not so much in the "fish on" category. I read a bunch of articles about techniques and learned much from them. My weedless frog's hook gate was not opening though after the strike... Waiting 2 seconds and then setting the hook. I later read that one bass master said if he landed 50% of the strikes he would leave the lake happy. Well,  it's hard for me to do that. When the lake is jammin' I can land a dozen 12 inch bass in about 30mins using a Powerbait . You can see how this is hard for me.
