Question by : Does anyone have any tips on finding worms besides digging for them?
We have a worm bed that we are trying to build up to have plenty of bait to fish this spring and summer. We’ve tried digging holes, leaving wet cardboard overnight and other things and haven’t had much luck at all. Our weather here has been kind of spastic..in the high 60s last week and low 40s this week so i don’t know if that has any bearing on finding worms or not. Any tips, tricks or suggestions are greatly appreciated! Thanks!

hammer a stake into the ground or just simply hit the ground the vibrations will most likely make the worms work their way to the surface.

Yup just like the other guy said try putting a pole or a pitchfork into the ground and hit it for vibrations and they’re supposed to go up. Also if it’s not freezing overnight, try watering your lawn or dirt area overnight where it can soak up and try finding worms in the morning. If all else fails, just buy some at the store and put them in the worm bed because right now is probably the worst time to try and find some.

Wait untill sun down and spray the grass with a garden hose for about 15 minutes. When you are down spraying wait for about 10 minutes and then go out there with a very bright flashlight and pick em out. thanks for the question hope I helped.

i put used coffee grounds out on the ground also you can put some wood on the ground and they will come up under it

if you don’t want to dig the worms, i would suggest that you go to a bait shop & purchase some
