I always have a senko rigged when throwing a frog. Watched a video once where a fish wasn’t trying to eat the frog but was slapping it with its tail to stun it first. When I get a blow up, I always grab the other rod with the senko and almost always get that fish.
I just grab the flipping bait of the day and flip it to them.

What ever soft plastic I have on. Usually baby brushog in green pumpkin.
Depends on the bite. It it swirls and a miss, I am throwing the same bait back in. If it get the bait in any form, I will try something a little more subtle as a follow up. If it doesn't bite again, I will mark the spot and come back later.
Frog/top water, glides, and big swimbaits it's always a wacky worm. I catch a good percentage of fish that blow up or follow those baits that won't give them a second look if tossed right back in.
Everything else it's just the same bait back in the same spot.
Texas Rig Trick worm, green pumpkin.
It's typically been a Senko for me but I started using the Yamatanuki last weekend and it seems to work pretty well. It's heavier than a Senko so I'm more accurate on a long pitch.
Senko or shakey head worm.
I don’t even get to the throw the first bait. Much less the follow up.

Topwater. If the fish completely missed then back goes the topwater. If the fish got any part of the bait but didn’t get hooked up then I go back with a senko or a fluke. I get a very high percentage of fish on the follow up bait that missed the top water. Same with glides and other big swim baits. If they follow those are swing and miss I’ll toss a follow up bait with a very high success rate.

Almost all of the time I am frog fishing or topwater fishing it is for fun. I rarely throw a follow up that isn't the frog. If I do throw a follow up it will be whatever is handy, usually a jig or Texas Rigged Craw Tube.
If I'm throwing a frog, I'm generally collecting AIR MILES Points. It is usually so far back in the pads, that the only other option would be DYNAMITE, besides throwing the frog back in.
Now, if throwing a Pop'R style bait in open water, I'll have a WACKY rig set up at my feet.
They'd showed me their face, now they get a little more up close and personal attention.
They may even get invited home for a greasy swim.
If I'm fishing top water and they blow up and miss it, I usually throw in a 4-5" worm on a 1/16oz TG (wind permitting)
Usually this gets bit
Been fishin' since I was 5 years old...Thanks Grandpa!
