Hello all. I started a worm farm in my insulated garage this past spring and my nightcrawlers are doing fine. I usually ice fish with waxies, but I want to try live night crawlers this year. IF we get good ice that is.  ::)  BTW, I fish my own pond for LM bass, yellow perch, and hybrid gills. Has anyone used live night crawlers? Do they live very long in the cold water? Thanks a bunch.

I have used worms/crawlers a couple times because I had some left over from soft water abd just wanted to use them up. Got to keep them warm just like waxies. I have caught a few gills and perch on them so they do work.
