Handheld VHF Range/Bloodworm Prices
 

Good conditions today for my first "on-water" trial of my new little
handheld VHF. From a spot two miles out from the shoreline, I raised
someone on the other side of the Bay Bridge (about 15 miles, easily),
and several boaters nine and 10 miles away down the Bay.

Bought a bag of bloodworms to supplement my bait offerings. Holy Crap!
$9.95. More expensive than the artificial bloodworms. Yikes!

Sounds like it would make sense to grow your own in a compost bin.

They get cut into half inch pieces, put on a hook and used for croaker,
spot, and perch. Some will use the whole worm and try to get stripers, but
usually they waste a worm that costs almost a buck.

They do well catching the bottom fish though!



They are messy, foul little beasties, though. Up north, we had much
better segmented worms we called sandworms.

Harry, the other day you said you'd bought bloodworms, and earlier you'd
mentioned using the artificial worms (Fishbites ?). Now the question - Did
you notice any difference? Which did better?



This past weekend, the real deal worked better, though I got one hell of
a bite from a whole artificial worm I put on the hook for "one last
cast" before heading in to the marina. I think it was a "bigger blue,"
because blues were the fish I was catching. It bit off most of the worm
and then left for the fishy titty bar.

I haven't checked the price of them lately, but since they are shipped
down here from your area, I'm sure they cost more than that.

They have always been expen$ive!


I never used them until I moved to this area. In Florida, when I had to
buy live bait, I bought nice shrimp for about $1.50 a dozen, and live
pogies for about $2.00 a dozen, and bigger pogies for $4 a dozen. But
mostly I could cast-net for bait and fill up the tank in about a half hour.

That guy is one tough son of a bitch.. I watched him catching snakes
one day and when the bit, you could see him quiver and drop to his
knees. Then he stuck his arm in the bushes and caught another dozen or
so bites in a period of probably an hour. When they did the blood worm
segment, he and the other guy put them on their arms and tried to get
them to bite...

Harry,
Why all the anamosity? I was just talking about a show that confirmed
EXACTLY what SWS said. If you have a bone to pick with someone it is
that damn SWS and his bloody statement about bloodworms and sandworms.
While you are at it, he needs to be knocked up side the head for all his
comments about LT Parkers. DAMN SWS

with a poison/copper bite? Ah, no thanks.
They get cut into half inch pieces, put on a hook and used for croaker,
spot, and perch. Some will use the whole worm and try to get stripers, but
usually they waste a worm that costs almost a buck.
They do well catching the bottom fish though!
They are messy, foul little beasties, though. Up north, we had much
better segmented worms we called sandworms.
I've fished both and in my opinion, bloodworms will out fish sandworms
everytime.
But...
During a sandworm worm hatch, striper heaven.

I saw on "Dirty Jobs" that when the bloodworm diggers find a sandworm,
they just throw them back. No one wants them.- Hide quoted text -

That guy is one tough son of a bitch.. I watched him catching snakes
one day and when the bit, you could see him quiver and drop to his
knees. Then he stuck his arm in the bushes and caught another dozen or
so bites in a period of probably an hour. When they did the blood worm
segment, he and the other guy put them on their arms and tried to get
them to bite...


The bloodworm segment was on last night. It was a repeat. Have you
ever been bit by a bloodworm? I was surprised that the diggers just
throw the sandworms away, heck they could save them and send them to
Harry COD.

Sounds like it would make sense to grow your own in a compost bin.
I wish I could, but they are a tidal flats worm.

Well, that does it for me and all the thousands of fishermen who look
for and use sandworms...Reggie saw a TV show once...


Harry,
Why all the anamosity? I was just talking about a show that confirmed
EXACTLY what SWS said. If you have a bone to pick with someone it is
that damn SWS and his bloody statement about bloodworms and sandworms.
While you are at it, he needs to be knocked up side the head for all his
comments about LT Parkers. DAMN SWS



I don't give a damn about bloodworms, sandworms, or reggieworms. I'm
just weary of your "subtle" obnoxiousness here. Of all the assholes who
have ever plagued this newsgroup, your name(s) lead the list.

I know it's not here. The dealer said 6-8 weeks, and I'm in no hurry. I
told him that postponing delivery until March wouldn't bother me a bit.
I've not called the factory to inquire. It'll get here when it does.

Wow, that is really nice, photos as the boat was being built. Do they
do that for everyone or only if you ask? You can put them in a photo

Sounds like it would make sense to grow your own in a

I wish I could, but they are a tidal flats worm.

eeeew,

I don't think we have those in this neck of the woods. No
loss. A worm
with a poison/copper bite? Ah, no thanks.
They get cut into half inch pieces, put on a hook and used for
croaker,
spot, and perch. Some will use the whole worm and try to get
stripers, but
usually they waste a worm that costs almost a buck.

They do well catching the bottom fish though!
They are messy, foul little beasties, though. Up north, we had
much better segmented worms we called sandworms.
Harry, the other day you said you'd bought bloodworms, and
earlier you'd
mentioned using the artificial worms (Fishbites ?). Now the
question - Did
you notice any difference? Which did better?
Uh...what's wrong with your computer clock?
Um, I don't know. It seems to be working fine to me.

Your post says it was posted an hour later.

Not here. Here it says yours was an hour earlier than you posted it!

Maybe Cox has two time zones, depending on the Mason-Dixon line.



That must be it...vertical time zones.

So, where is your new boat? On the assembly line yet? Parker actually
sent me photos of my boat being built.


Wow, that is really nice, photos as the boat was being built. Do they
do that for everyone or only if you ask? You can put them in a photo
album and add new photos every year as it gets older.





There he goes again, Reggieworm the A**hole.

That guy is one tough son of a bitch.. I watched him catching snakes
one day and when the bit, you could see him quiver and drop to his

segment, he and the other guy put them on their arms and tried to get
them to bite...


Hell, ain't any 'get them' to it. Stick a hook in one end, and they'll bite
with the other! Yeah, it stings, but they pull off easily enough.- Hide quoted text -
