Just counted 38 nightcrawlers on my carport & patio ranging from 6-10 in. Thinking about "capturing" them in case crappie bite goes South. Happens every time we get this much rain. I know somebody else has 'em too!

I've caught every species of fish there is on a crawler, or part of one.
Man yeah we got them, and they are, in my opinion, the best bream bait ever. Just one of them puppies is enough to catch a box full of bream. Makes it mighty easy to carry bait when you only have to bring a couple worms.
Tip a jig with pieces of them.
Never tried that, cray. Might be time to try it this weekend since I never fished Nader before. Will need all the help I can get!Quote:

Go to bass pro when they feed the fish and watch how many worms get gobbled up by crappie.
Don't know what your calling Nightcrawlers round these parts,,,, all we have in memphis are these large snake like creatures that resemble a worm,,,,Not Nightcrawlers though,,, they only grow up north in cooler weather
They have bigger deer up north also. We talkin SOUTHERN night crawlers here tho. [emoji4]Quote:

Those northern nightcrawlers have a flat tail. The southern nightcrawlers have a round tail.
At Cossar tuesday morning we had both crawling everywhere. I guess containers were dumped out after a fishing trip by others in the past.
We picked a good many. Some were over a foot long.
Big,,, so the Night crawlers down south her come out at night? I have tried on several occasions to catch them when I first moved from Nebraska and not once Coukd I find them with a flashlight like usual....Only catch these when it rains or digest up under leaves,,,, some of them are scarey looking suckers too! I almost thought they were snakes when I first found a few over 6"
