Butterworms.>>> 

I string minnows for spring time trout fishing.  Took a buddy of mine 4hrs to my home waters in the early spring.  Water was a little too cold for the trout to chase minnows.

Well I had to listen about these Butterworms and how great they are,  YEAH RIGHT!.

Well the short of it was.  He was doing all the catching and I was asking to have some butterworms..  ???

I've order them for my bearded dragons. They aren't cheap either think I got them from Mulberry Farms (http://www.mulberryfarms.com/horn2.htm). 7.95 for 25 butterworms little pricey for bait. I'm sure the would work great though.
