ok so i have a very small hand built minnow trap and i want to know how many people have had success with home built traps to gather minnows. im not sure if mine will work ut i can build one that is bigger if push comes to shove.

also it rained some yesterday and i went out to gather some worms and had no luck. is there something i can use to draw the worms from the ground faster? like a solution of some sort that i can pour onto the area to draw out the worms?
