Ever used or heard of "Green Worms"

[G.mech]

Like all fishing tackle, the vendors don't need the green worms to catch fish they need them to catch fishermen...

Fibre worm box, Dad used one of these in the 60's and I used them though my life, unfortunately the last one I put under the van rather than inside to keep it cool while steelheading on a river and forgot about it when I drove off I concur, they were the best, never used the ground newspaper bedding stuff, found sphagnum moss the best, NOT PEAT MOSS.

Those were big in this area too, not surprising though, the company that made them was in Oberlin Ohio, around 20 miles from here.

I did my own works for a few seasons. Fun project with the kids

Just do a simple test and also get regular worms and present them at the same time and way.

Sort of a controlled study.

Might save you some money.

I recall them being called 'nitro worms'....they did a number on Lake Huron coho $12/dz is stupid tho, just dump some food coloring in the container or pick up one of the instant bait dyes/markers they sell now

Yup they call them Nitro worms here too, they are $6 a dozen, regular worms work better from my experiences.

Based on this thread a scientific data is being gathered on the same lake with similar conditions where the Green worms ruled previously. The data shows no marked advantage from either species of worm over the other up until the latest findings at 15:30.

seen them before (could have been at Le Barons) but never used any. I wonder if kool-aid powder in the soil would also work if in the moist soil long enough? There's one to try I guess OI

Lebarons had them for sure. No difference in what they caught for me.
