Where can I get some nice lively fat worms in Ottawa, tired of the pre-packed half dead Canadian tire worms, I'm in kanata but will drive to get them

Saw a fridge @ LeBarons, never bought from there so can't vouch.

Try lifting rocks or flagstones, you might have fatties lying around your yard.

Ya lebarons has the same fridge, last time I bought there i opened the box and there were no worms, I think they just turned to mush

few place in gatineau as some on jaques cartier on shore .

canadian..they were good the ones i got there.

but the best is the lawn..there full you can pick like a few 100'S in one hour worth a lot off $.

the best place to pick worm and did it for years.......golf course greens. ....not sher they like that taugh but its the best place..

quiet and soft light and be fast..on the green the grass is very chort so easy to grab.

Bits and Baits in Stittsville certainly has them. Dew worms and trout worms.

If you're using lots, the 100 pack at Lebaron's is your best value. If they're mostly for panfish, there's a worm farm in Ottawa that has nice european nightcrawlers. I forget their name, easy to Google I'm sure. I bought worms from them but they were way too small for walleye, but I did get lots of perch and sunfish.

Try Parliament Hill, lots of worms there!

(I crack myself up sometimes....)

Bits and Baits in Stittsville. Best live bait in town.

Ya, I got the 40 pack there, and they were fat and juicy. I almost took a bite myself.

I have experienced the same thing too, and I would like to provide you with a possible solution. For the last several years I have been catching dew worms myself. You can to by waiting for a rainy night and going out with a low powered flash light. the low powered flashlight is a must because dew worms are light sensitive. Then look for exposed earth and grab there shiny bodies and pull them out of their holes and then place them in a bucket and store in the fridge. happy hunting tonight.

Alves worms, available at most general stores and many gas stations in the Valley, are usually fat and lively. I don't use worms much any more, but I've rarely if ever bought worms that turned out to be dead. It's always best to take off the lid and take a look before you buy.
