In this web content, Bill Heavey takes readers on a late-night adventure in Louisiana, where he learns the art of frogging from a local expert named Jody Meche. Jody prefers to catch frogs bare-handed, as gigs and mechanical grabbers aren’t reliable and kill the frogs. Jody teaches Bill the technique of shining the frogs to locate them, and then catching them quickly before they dive for cover. Bill initially struggles to catch the frogs, but eventually improves and gains praise from Jody. The next morning, Bill helps Jody butcher the frogs for a gathering, where they are cooked and enjoyed by all.
