Got out last night for a few hours and gave one of Roccus' red tube & worm rigs a test drive. He gave me a couple at the Beavertail gathering and I've been itching to get em stretched out ever since. First time for me using a T&W rig with a blade.
Thanks again Roccus!

Trolled from the kayak with a monster nightcrawler on the hook yeilded some nice fish last night. 3 fish over 20lbs and 5 smaller within 2 hours of working it. I've pretty much given up using sea worms on T&W as they're so expensive. I can pick up a tub of 24 good sized nightcrawlers for $3, and they work well enough. Berkely Gulp 10" eels coated in smelly jelly work well on them too thumbsup.gif

Usually when it rains, if you go to a park or basically any grassy place with a 5 gallon bucket and a poncho u can just walk thru the grass and pick up tons of worms. Used to do this as a kid during the week if it rained for my flounder fishing weekend with the old man and a few of our friends.
Dig up some earth and throw it in the bucket too,,,give the worms some housing and food until u decide to usem up.

I used to go out at night with a flashlight and just pick them up off a damp lawn. Grab them by the head and use a steady pull to get them to loose their hold on the hole they are coming out of. You know what will happen if you pull to hard, to quick.
