Cast beside cover or let the floating lure drift into position before retrieving. The Salmo Infinity Cast System supports accurate casts. The supplier describes a slow retrieve with a high rod tip about 30 cm from the bank, or repeated drifts with short retrieves to work holding spots beneath overhanging bushes.
The 2 cm version gives a smaller beetle profile than the 3 cm version, and both lengths offer all eight finishes. Green Bug, Ladybird, May Bug and Bloody Bug weigh 2.8 g at 2 cm and 4.3 g at 3 cm, so these versions can be compared against your rod's casting range. Weights for the other finishes are not supplied, and no finish-specific fishing conditions are stated.
It is intended for ultralight surface fishing, especially for chub and smaller surface-feeding predators. The line is also described for trout, with perch explicitly mentioned for the 2 cm versions. Its floating beetle profile suits cast-and-retrieve or drifting presentations at the surface rather than a deep-running presentation.
Every version is fitted with one treble hook, which the supplier describes as easier to unhook. The supplied warning says the lure may contain lead or cadmium and prolonged exposure can be harmful. Wash your hands thoroughly after handling, avoid ingestion and contact with food.

The Salmo Lil'Bug Floating is a small, floating surface crankbait shaped like a beetle for ultralight lure fishing, particularly for chub and other smaller surface-feeding predators. Its aerodynamic body and Salmo Infinity Cast System (SICS) support long, accurate casts, helping you reach tight spots beside cover. It can also drift with the current before you start the retrieve.
Cast close to cover or let the current carry the lure to the intended position before retrieving. For river fishing, the supplier describes starting with short casts and progressively covering more distant spots. Retrieve slowly with the rod tip held high, guiding the lure about 30 cm from the bank to imitate an insect that has fallen into the water.
Alternating short retrieves with repeated drifts lets you work holding spots across the river in a zigzag pattern with a V-shaped wake. Drifting is also described for summer fishing around cover beneath overhanging bushes. The supplier identifies trout as another target for the line, and specifically mentions perch for the 2 cm versions.
Both 2 cm and 3 cm lengths are available in Green Bug, Ladybird, May Bug, Bloody Bug, Black Bug, May Fly, Clear Ayu and Hinomaru. Choose 2 cm for the smaller beetle profile or 3 cm for the larger profile. All versions are floating surface lures with the same casting system and one treble hook. The finish names identify the available patterns, with no supplied guidance assigning a particular pattern to water clarity or light conditions.
The 2 cm Green Bug, Ladybird, May Bug and Bloody Bug versions weigh 2.8 g. Their 3 cm counterparts weigh 4.3 g and are described as having a wobbling surface action. These eight versions are supplied as one lure in the selected finish. Lure weights and pack quantities are not specified for Black Bug, May Fly, Clear Ayu or Hinomaru. Retail packaging weights are not lure weights.
Each version has one treble hook, which the supplier describes as making unhooking easier. The supplied safety warning states that the lure may contain chemicals such as lead or cadmium and that prolonged exposure can be harmful. Wash hands thoroughly after handling, avoid ingestion and keep the lure away from food.
