Worms and Crickets

[Backwater Man]

I use crickets and worms both to go after the blue gill and red ears. I half way attempted a worm bed with the European night crawlers---I love them.
Myself they remind me of a big redworm / wiggler----All of my worms escaped--but I am going to try it again.----I used an old frig. bad idea.
I have a website in Texas where you can order them and shows you how to build the worm beds. A trick to the worm bed and the ants----Build your box in an area that nothing can touch it from the sides or top. Place each leg in a bucket or can large enough that the leg will not touch the sides of the bucket or can--place some old burnt oil in the can or bucket.
Some even take a stick of tube grease and apply it to each leg also.
Canadian peat moss is recommended for the worm beds, plus shredded paper or card board--no colored ink print.
Bottom of worm box has a drip pan that catches excess water and use it on the garden, plus a filter screen is needed to prevent the worms from escaping through the holes drilled in the bottom---air holes is in the top also.
I also have a book on the European night crawler.
