    Default Meal Worms for crappie?


    Anyone tip their jigs with meal worms when crappie fishing? Reason I ask, is my cousin raises them and gave me a tupperware container with about 50 and I just discovered I now have several hundred full grown meal worms. I have oats and cereal in the container and it's boiling there's so many in there.

    Never have used em around here, but have read they use em up north, and have read that maggots are a natural meal for crappie. Should work, sure worth a try. Let us know if ya use them and if they work or not.

    Meal Worms will work here depending on the time of the year but I've caught very few Crappie on them, you can tip them on jigs but I like using Wax Worms during the cold months

    boots, I have to ask. How do you tip a minnow with a red worm?

    Just get him on, then we'll worry about getting him in!

    I hooked one end of the worm on the hook, hooked the minnow thur the eyes and then put the other end of the worm on the hook and trim excess off. used about 3" of worm.
