One day last fall while trout fishing a local river here I noticed a young couple with the cutest little girl fishing from the bank and they had a cooler and were trying to catch a mess of bluegill to take home and not having much success. I put Sam's One Bug on and started catching bluegill and giving them to their daugther who would take them to the cooler. She would just squeal and carry on everytime I would catch one and she was a joy to watch. As the evening progressed and the sun went down, the young couple thanked me for the mess of fish and they left. I kept on fishing the One Bug and had 2 nice rainbow jump all over it! After that, is when I decided that Sam's One Bug would be a great strike indicator since it did have a hook in it and some trout seemed to like it. I will use it more this season and see if more trout like it.
