Waxies

How do you guys get your waxies for tip bait? I live on Cape Ann, and unless I want to buy some from Dicks Sporting Goods in Danvers, I'm kinda screwed. Does anyone grow them?

i just started growing them this year

going good so far easy to raise

i am waiting for my first batch now

the problem is keeping the temp up to get them to reproduce   you want it at 70 degrees and thats a high heating bill   ;D

do you have to refrigerate them, or can I keep them in the basement?
