Steve:

I think Ranger Rick recommends (3) nails lashed to a pole.

The barbs on a fish hook may not be splayed enough to keep them from slipping off the hooks.

I think the idea with nails is to spear and pin the frogs down so that you can bend over and pick them up.

As long as the water is not too deep, or the frogs too far off shore, a sling shot would be great for stunning them.
