That was by far the best demonstration and explanation on beach worming I’ve seen. I can’t seem to get the hang of hand worming - three tries and only 1 1/2 worms. Frustrating. I just bought some worm pliers and can’t wait to put your instructions to the test. Thanks again. PS. Enjoyed the Solomon too.

Glad you enjoyed it mate and hopefully helps you get onto a few more. Using fingers can be tricky, I’ve honestly my skills a lot more with it and found a much slower approach digging you’re fingers deep into the sand behind the worm slowly until you can feel them, then just a gentle squeeze while they’re relaxed. 👍🏼

Thanks for sharing. Very much helpful

Thanks mate, looks like I'll have to dig my pliers out and try again

Your video was the best beach worming info session on the net. I’ve only tried once and all I got were misses and heads. I’ve never considered the worm pliers, but you made it look very effective for ‘holding’ the worm initially. I guess I’ll have to figure out the tensing process to know when to pull. Thanks!

Very appreciated mate! The pliers definitely are the easiest and fastest way to start getting worms, however the con is that if used incorrectly is that you’ll be busting worms. Little patience and practice with pulling them out and it becomes a rare occurrence. Hope you get onto some and some good fish after 👍🏼

@galaxyexplorer6189

Жыл бұрын

Any beach will hold worms with the right conditions.ie:flat gentle sloping areas.ive found the best time to go is two or three days after a big swell as the big waves will flatten a previously steep beach to a gentler sloping angle ideal for worming,plus the big swell seems to bring them in.👍..P.s as you say the bigger swell is not ideal,just wait until the swell drops to a suitable size as in this video.the beach will still be flat and ideal for worming😂

One of the best guides on KZread. Some food for thought, using the pliers often kills the worms so using them live often isnt possible. Coming from the side of the worm will reduce the number of worms close by you can target as your stepping close to them. The same thing when you are digging, at minute 14ish of the video you can see there looks like two worms within 20cm of each other and when you stuck your hand in to soggy the second one is gone. I'd love to make my version of this video for you to give me some feedback aswell. The last few months I've been practising pulling them one handed and my rate is still below 20% that way.

@anglinguntangled

2 жыл бұрын

Thanks mate, greatly appreciated. The pliers kills worms thing is a myth, for alvey worming pliers anyway. Caught this way worms can last up to 3 days which is as long as you can expect from worms caught with fingers and stored in dry sand too, in my experience. The approach and digging points are true, but worms are also usually plentiful enough once you find them that you can just take one step away in most directions and be onto another one, and it’s easiest to swing the stink bag up the beach away from your bait hand. Given all that, I highly regard using only fingers and anyone that can do it well. It’s something I’ll be working on for years I reckon

I’ve seen the pro’s catch them on Frasier island for bait shops. They can pick them up as fast as a normal person could pick up coins. I tried for half an hour but could only pull one, they seem so quick. Definitely a technique to it.

Worst part is these pros don't stick to any quota and decimate stocks. There used to be near endless amounts of them in Newcastle and Port Stephens but you're lucky to come across more than one or two on a half hour walk along the beaches these days. I've even talked to a couple of the Bloke's who catch them who have admitted to catching upto 20k each in Christmas holidays alone.

Hi Mate Spent 3hrs teaching my mate today on the beach exactly what you showed so well. Sent him a link to vid to watch If you do a vid using metho to cure the worms can I suggest you add a small bottle of red food dye in 1 litre of metho. As the worms are cured they absorb the red food dye and come out bright red. Just a suggestion you might want to try Where might u be based?

@anglinguntangled

Not the quickest method for catching them but by far the most reliable I’ve found. Yeah but if red food dye gets them looking really good! I’m now down on the sapphire coast of NSW

Great video. Very reliable method although i often just pull it out gently even without water. You can also use any cheap pliers but have to work out the right pressure to hold onto and it tends to kill the worm abit faster. I would not recommend catch more than 5-10 worms max as it will just go wasted and you are just depleting worms on your favourable spot...
