Today, many artificial methods of doing certain tasks have replaced natural ones. Microwaves have replaced cooking over a campfire. Lawnmowers have replaced grazing sheep. Telephones have replaced shouting from atop a hill. However, some ways of doing certain tasks using natural means, have remained commonplace and effective One example is bass fishing with live worms. To Catch A Worm Bass fishing with live worms is more challenging than it might seem at first. Nightcrawlers survive the best in soil that is moist or warm. Soil is most plentiful in those areas. A light stick and flashlight with a plastic colored cover are ideal weak sources of light to use, when hunting worms. The best time to search for nightcrawlers is after sunset. Also, nightcrawlers are best found in locations that are moist, such as near compost piles or beneath plants. Do not worry because nightcrawlers will not nibble on you. After you find one, quickly grab its top and using a little pressure, tenderly pull it up until the worm is freed from its hole. Worm Wonderlands You will then have to keep your worms alive, before bass fishing with live worms. They should be stored in a blend of compost. You can also use a mixture of two-thirds peat or compost, and one-third standard dirt. A (3x2x2) box can store about 600-700 worms. Ideally, the container should be kept in a cool and damp area, and never in direct sunlight for a lengthy time. Sixteen worms placed in a container with a peat and dirt mixture, would be sufficient for an entire day of fishing. Just be certain to safeguard the critters from heat and sunlight.
