Crappie and bluegill season is here and I needed bait. Over the years, I have discovered that meal worms are not only good for feeding bluebirds, they are also excellent for catching panfish and trout. I like the larger size, though, and sometimes they are hard to find in pet shops – and when you do find them, they are expensive. They sell little cups of 25 or 30 worms for $3 or $4.
I decided to skip the local scene and emailed my old friends, Fluker Farms, and they immediately sent out a box of 250, enough to get me through the panfish season. They were only $6.95 plus freight. I store them in the fridge and they last for months.
If you need bait for crappies or bluegills, check out FlukerFarms.com. And if you need several thousand to feed your bluebirds, Fluker Farms is always a great source for live, wiggling mealworms.
