By CHARLES GRADY It waa with mixed emotions that I stood on the dark banks of North River late orte moonlit July night and watched my friend Bo douse himself with mosquito spray. On one hand. I knew we were here to do some frog gigging, an experience that bore pleasurable connotations. On the other hand. I still sported scratches obtained during a recent, darkened riverbank trek It's hard to explain things like that to your shins. Bo finished with the spray and threw it into the boat with the rest of our gear: gigs, a lantern, a bag for frogs, and our paddles. I guess you could call them paddles. Actuallytihey were heavy, oak rwo-by-fojjrs As we eased the boat into the water, the deep call of a large bullfrog resounded downstream. We slipped away from the bank and headed for the large bed of lily pads V, where we had heard the frog call. It had been several years since either of us had fooled with frogs, so we made up our technique as we went along. Soon we found that one person would have to paddle while the other used the lantern to spot. Since I was in back I took the first turn paddling while Bo searched the lily beds for frogs Frogs are hard to spot for a couple of reasons. For one. they generally get into the thickest cover available, be it lily pads or cattails. Another reason is that they can throw their voice. Often a kill a frog.
