Curing Beach Worms

Greg

I have great success doing the following -

Collect some super dry white sand from the top of the beach. Quickly dunk each worm in a bit of metho (_Affordable_Storage_Drawers.aspx some moisture out of them so they don't burst when you freeze them). Roll in the dry sand and package singularly with a bit of the dry sand in a ziplock bag - Freeze. They will be like fresh when you go to use them and have kept them for 6-12 months preserving them this way.

You can also salt them with heaps of course cooking salt, but they are a bit tough and leathery when you go to use them.

What "age" said!

My grandfather taught me that one, along with how to catch the little blighters!

Thanks very much, Fellas. I'll be giving both methods a try.

Once again this forum provides the answers!!

A little bit off topic, but what method do people use to keep the worms alive at the beach. I have tried rolling in sand and keeping them in a container and also keeping in water. Which is the best method to keep them alive the longest.

Thanks
