Another way to catch worms

[Billy13426]

In the spring when the snow melted the flooding started. I went out in a flooded area and tossed a burlap sack out there. The worms crawl up in the holes and get caught. I ended up catching about 40 worms in one day with it.

I'll have to try that, this spring. What part of michigan are you from?

[hunter63]

Funny you should bring that up....This works kinda like rolling over rocks.....

I have a piece of carpet in the garden for mulch....just roll out and plant through holes......
Was kinda bunched up...(puppy has been having a ball playing with it)....When I straitened it out..... the folds were full of worms and night crawlers.

I use to get crickets like that but in dry areas. Did you eat the worms or were they for fishing?

[Billy13426]

I am from midland mi not too far from fenton and I used the worms for fishing bait

For fishing....unless I'm realllllllly hungry........
Or in my case I just tossed them in the compost bin.

We used to catch grasshoppers for fish bait. Used an old white sheet, spread out in a grassy area. Walked around in circles around the sheet, 'hoppers would land on the sheet and get their feet stuck. Scooped them up in a cricket basket and hit the creek!

Batch, Batch, Batch, Batch, Batch. Okay, this is humor right here. Now, over here we have wit. And here is tomfoolery. Notice how the line is connected to all three? Now follow the dotted line and you have wisecrack. That's how you get from there to here. Short path.

Why not just get a Worm Factory composting kit from Arbico-Organics? You'll have worms available 24/7/365.

Most likely not a good thing to fit in a BOB,..... foraging and farming are vastly differ ends of the spectrum.
We are talking survival vs gourmet dining.

[AmericanWolverine]

But he didn't mention anything about survival. He was just talking about ways of getting worms.
