Do carp eat redworms and red wiggler worms?



It depends on the carp. Common carp do for sure, buffalo (not really carp) will. Grass carp and those new invasive asian carp like silver carp and bighead carp will not, they are vegetarian or filter feeders. Look up pictures on Google if you’re not sure which one it is.

    carp eat everything, but they probably have preferences so they’re not likely to.

    On occasion, but you’re much better off using corn or dough baits for carp. It’s certainly not part of their normal diet, but I have caught carp on worms before. Just like I caught a largemouth bass one time while carp fishing with corn. Just about any fish will eat anything if they’re hungry or curious enough.
