Fascinating article on catching earthworms for fishing.
Make a sound like a mole, and the worms head for the surface....
never heard of it, but beats digging though.
Never heard of it either.
I'd just collect them after a good rain.
Only used them for bluegills, perch and catfish though.
Very unusual to get a crappie on a worm where I fished.

Really? why's that, vic?

Worm grunting is a big deal here and you have to stake a claim in the
Nat Forest. We even have a worm grunting festival in Sopchoppy, FL.
I just missed the worm grunting festival cuz my daughter was in town.


Whoa, the panhandle is rich with culture! Who'd have known?



Once you get west of Tallahassee, well...you're on your way to Alabama,
and the "culture" reflects that.
