If you want to land a good fish you have to get your bait right and so choosing the right worm when you are bait fishing is a key component for success. Fish are attracted to worms for two key reasons: Smell and Movement. Whilst there is no single magic worm guaranteed to catch the biggest fish there are a few types that will attract salmon, trout, catfish, carp and more!
All of our Wiggly Live Worms can be sent to arrive next-day nationwide (Excludes Highlands and Islands)
Here's a Wiggly guide to fishing worms.
Common Night Crawlers aka Lob Worms, Garden Worms, Earthworms
The biggest earthworm used in the UK to fish with, once you have successfully secured a lob worm to your hook you are certain to attract all sorts of attention to your wiggly bait. Bass, salmon, catfish, and barbel will rarely pass the chance to devour a juicy lob. Night crawlers also work really well for trout although usually using the smaller ones in your bag will be a bit more manageable for their smaller mouths.
