to catch fish in almost any water or sky condition.   I think it is because it's a dark bait, yet has high contrast with the orange tail, and the glitter on the sides makes it effective in bright sun.    It is natural enough to work in clear water.    Or maybe it is just all the good karma behind it.   Who knows?     All I know is that it works....very
