red worms or can. nightcrawlers?


as far as fishing goes would there be a difference for me? or if theyre biting nightcrawlers theyll bite the larger redworms?

The redworms can be awful small, perhaps too small for a large hook. The Canadian Nightcrawlers are the exact opposite, they are a very big worm (like you may buy at a bait shop). A couple good mid-sized alternatives are European Nightcrawlers and African Nightcrawlers (both of which are a great size for fishing). Also both of those varieties can be grown every easily in your own compost pile so you always have a supply of worms for fishing and even good vermicompost for your garden.

I actually get alot of people asking me that question, as I am owner/operator of: www.Earthworms4Sale.com I hope to put up a video comparison of the different worms I sell shortly along with a short synopsis of their general purpose and habits.

    Red worms are cheaper and reproduce a lot faster than nightcrawlers. You could keep a small worm bin in your pantry or basement and have worms all through the season and into next year if you tended it. http://www.mamaswormcomposting.com

  4. Euro nightcrawlers are by far a better fishing worm. They are great for ice fishing and in saltwater. they will stay lively on the hook for at least one half hour. red worms are good for the smaller fish like trout and perch. When you put the reds on your hook the give off a yellowish liquid that attracts fish.
