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.


If you attemp this, can you send me the video? :-)

People used to use one stave of a barrel, as the resonance was the best for
making the worms come to the surface. Not sure what the second piece of
wood was that caused the grunting sound by rubbing it on the stave.
