just last week I asked for waxies and the guy at the bait shop replies "we dont carry em but we have maggots though". I opened the container and they were bigger than any waxies I have ever seen, and i almost exclusively use waxies when i can find em so im pretty familiar with em. been using em my whole life. The maggots werent any thicker than the waxies just alot longer. But your right in SC i have never seen maggots, only waxies but i guess down here in FLA is a diff story
