smerchly Posted March 27, 2010 Report Share Posted March 27, 2010 Anyone know where I can get some small red worms? I think they call them red wigglers ????Thanks I doubt the bait & tackle shops would have them , but I have picked some reg.small dew worms from the grass over a week ago ....too cold lately... I get my red wigglers under rotted leaf piles that get a lot of sun exposer , or under boards , logs or cardboard etc .that is in a wet area.Happy hunting ......

Drifter, I assume you heard they were good for trout? lol My gramps use to tell me that, never caught a trout on one but lots of other pannies.Strong scent to them.

smerchly Posted March 28, 2010 Report Share Posted March 28, 2010 When I was a teen a few years ago , we used to take our rods and a few snelled hooks & homemade sinkers in our pocket & walk through the cow pastures , flipping over the older cow patties . We would get ourselves a whole $hit load of red worms ,aka manure worms , and yes we caught trout on them ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

briguy Posted March 28, 2010 Report Share Posted March 28, 2010 Anybody know a cow pasture or composter I can hit up for some ??? dont know your area but find a spot that locals dump their leaves (ravines, dead end roads in the country).. I am sure there is a spot or 2 that gets used as a public compost pile Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rachel M Posted March 29, 2010 Report Share Posted March 29, 2010 If you have any horse or cow farms around, they're a great place to get the tiny little red worms in the manure piles. We've probably got a million of them throughout our pile, you've just got to be willing to get a little dirty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mersey Posted March 30, 2010 Report Share Posted March 30, 2010 If you have any horse or cow farms around, they're a great place to get the tiny little red worms in the manure piles. We've probably got a million of them throughout our pile, you've just got to be willing to get a little dirty. I have been breeding my own Red Worms for a number of years. It is very easy to do. Drop me a line if you are interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
