Butterworms- where to get them in SE-MICH?
« on: Dec 12, 2008, 10:36 AM »
I've heard great things about butterworms but have not seen them in stores.

Do any baitshops in SE-Mich sell them?

Thanks!

Check pet stores,  people use them as lizard food also.  I got mine last year from a place called Moby Dicks in Waterford off of Sashabaw Rd near Walton Blvd.  But I would call because they are not always in stock.

walts crawlers stocks them in the worm coolers in some of the gas stations, but they are hot so get them while you can!!!!

i was gonna say, i know walts sells them, so if you can find a store that carries their worms, even if they don't carry butterworms, they might order some in for you.

What do you use butter worms for? I've tryed them for bluegill once.  They sucked
The charm of fishing is that it is the pursuit of what is elusive but attainable, a perpetual series of occasions for hope.

i've had pretty good luck with them. i still use waxies for the most part, but if i can't get minnows, i like a big juicy butterworm for crappie

all right- thanks guys!

I will check some of the Walt's dealers around here.

I just want to give them a shot since I have heard good things about them.

Thanks again for the helpful responses!

We used them for 'gills in the summer, but they will bite on anything when the water is warm.
