About the event

Join Wander Woman as we head out for our first frog gigging excursion! We’ve partnered with the KDWP to bring you an instructional event where we will learn to gig, clean, and cook one of the very herpetological species in Kansas that are considered game animals - the American Bull Frog.

A Kansas Fishing License is required to take, catch, or kill bullfrogs, unless exempt.

Licensing and purchasing information can be found here: Kansas Licsening

Ladies will arrive at 6:00pm where we will gather and meet our instructors from the KDWP. Before we begin our hunt, ladies will learn all about the American Bull Frog and frog gigging. We will then have a step by step demonstration on how to clean frogs and frying frog legs, to which we will enjoy a quick meal of Fried Frog Legs and Waffles! Ladies will then be divided into small groups to head out for an evening of fun by the water and we will conclude the evening by cleaning our catch to take home.

Please bring:

  • Bug Spray
  • Shoes you don't mind getting wet/muddy (preferably closed toed)
  • Flashlight and/or headlamp
  • Gallon sized ziplock bag
  • Small cooler/lunch bag to transport your meat
  • Baggies for leave no trace
  • Kansas Fishing License

This is a free event sponsored by the Kansas Department of Wildlife.  If you are unable to make the event, please inform us within 24 hours so we may offer your spot to another eager and interested participant!
