I GOT THE BAIT
« on: Dec 11, 2009, 10:11 AM »
Anyone have tricks to keeping waxworms or mealworms alive when you order them in bulk. I have a few hundred comming and would like to keep them alive for awhile.
Take a kid fishing,they make great pack mules.
Put the big ones back for another day eat the small ones.

Refrigerate the mealies and not the waxies.

the waxies won't last more than a few weeks so get your moneys worth and sell some to your friends unless you plan on  fishing everyday, warm the mealworms up before you go fishing. I usually put my mealworms in the crisper in the fridge they keep just fine and if you want you can put a slice of an apple in with them to feed them.  That's all I got dude hope you got a good deal on them.
good things come to those who wait......Im still waiting!!!

As long as you keep your waxies around 45-50 degrees they will last a long time, mine normally last 1-2 months, Refrigerate the mealies

Thanks for the info. If someone comes up to you on the ice and asks if you want some bait just say hello gulp.
