Sweet....I'll have a look at this.

It can be found in the fishing section?

I need to get a worm box. So I can always have a decent supply ready.

[Swing4Steel]

Styrofoam cooler works well, and is easily disposed of if things go sour

[Kit]

Actually yeah that would probably be better. Cheaper too probably.

[PUMP KNOWS]

I can't wait to start a worm box. 

 

Thanks for all the tips guys.

 

ps.  I don't usually use worms to fish but can't go wrong with free worms

I saw something great for keeping worms at SAIL, it looked like a mini keg, with a bottom compartment for storing ice cubes. 

 

Would come in handy for those hot days when your worms can die rapidly. Just put them in the container, fill the bottom with ice, and you'll have healthy worms to use. Always better using lively, healthy worms than worms that are falling apart.

That sounds pretty sweet.

Look fine. What are you feeding them?

Nope.. Very light rain but enough to make them come out and play!

That's when I dumped them in the first time.  After a couple of days they didn't look like they were moving.  They also had dirt stuck on them, aren't they suppose to be dirt free when healthy?  I had crushed egg shells in the dirt.  I just stored a couple dozen in the fridge just now and see how they hold up till sunday.

Same here.  What type of fishing will you be using for these worms?
